Description
Hi,
thanks for great module. RC1 looks fine apart from the fact that anonymous can use the nickname of any of the registered users. I think this should not be allowed, what do you think?
If you are aware of this or even working on this, accept my apologies and ignore/delete this issue.
Thanks,
Petiar.

How does Drupal core handle this? Patches are welcome.

I have no idea how Drupal core handle this, do you think it is its responsibility?
However, I'll have a look into the Guestbook code and see what can I do - it should not be complicated to implement this check.
Thanks,
Peter.

Please make sure that Comment module in Drupal core does not already implement a working solution. If it does, we'll probably fork that functionality directly from there, so any improvements to Comment module's functionality can be added to Guestbook's.

Reclassifying.

Attach patch is against CVS HEAD (6.x-2.x). Please test.
