Rock on.

[msimplay]

please make it work for rc2

[mtha]

please make it work for rc2
You can try installing on RC2 (or RC4 is the most current one). it should work fine. (version2, do you need to do anything else for your RC2 to work with this hack?)

I dont have any RC in use yet,

[msimplay]

i did try and i failed :) thats why i posed please make it work for rc2

[mtha]

i did try and i failed :) thats why i posed please make it work for rc2
I have looked over the code for RC4, and there's nothing different, except for the search in functions.php, you look for

/*================================================= =====================*\

\*================================================ ======================*/

at the end of that file, and add the getproxyip() function above it. everything else should be the same.

(If codes RC4 and beta7 are the same (at the searching locations), I would assume that the code in RC 2 be the same)

If you tell me the error, or where you get stuck, I may be able to help you, without rewriting the mod, which I dont think I will, until Gold. :)

[Frank]

Nice thanks.

[VampireMan]

could this be altered for the who's online page ?

[msimplay]

omg i ran the querie now nomatter who i click on the profile always goes to my profile how do i reverse this querie please :(

[mtha]

could this be altered for the who's online page ?
This hack is for per post IP detection, and who's online page is for per login IP, so, this would not work in who's online page

However, you can use the same method, to read IP in who's online page. it'd be great too.

omg i ran the querie now nomatter who i click on the profile always goes to my profile how do i reverse this querie please
I dont really understand what you mean. This hack should not effect profile.

the only SQL query is to add a column to your post table:
ALTER TABLE post ADD proxyip VARCHAR(50) not null AFTER ipaddress;

sorry your right :o i needed to restart coz i just installed mozilla 1.6 sorry
very sorry

[Metro Man]

nice nice

[gmarik]

Why should I need one? :rolleyes:

[Stadler]

Thanks for the time I couldn't find to update the hack :)

btw: instead of using a function to detect the Proxy-Address, you could modify /includes/init.php by adding// ################################################## #####################
// establish client Proxy address (if it exists)
if ($_SERVER['HTTP_FORWARDED'] != '')
{
$proxyip = $_SERVER['HTTP_FORWARDED'];
}
else if ($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] != '')
{
$proxyip = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
}
else if ($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'] != '')
{
$proxyip = $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'];
}
else
{
$proxyip = '';
}

$proxyip = preg_replace('/javascript/i', 'java script', $proxyip);
$proxyip = str_replace('"', '"', $proxyip);
$proxyip = str_replace('<', '&lt;', $proxyip);
define('PROXYIP', str_replace('>', '&gt;', $proxyip));
unset($proxyip);after{
define('ALT_IP', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
}(At least I came this far ;))

[mtha]

Thanks for the time I couldn't find to update the hack :)

btw: instead of using a function to detect the Proxy-Address, you could modify /includes/init.php by adding...
wondering what's the advantage/disadvantage of using init.php to functions.php? I'm kinda new to that init.php :)

[Stadler]

Not much advantages, but:
1. init.php is called in every script and it's among the first scripts called there.
2. The IP is determined in the same script.
3. It was my approach to that hack. ;)

[MaDCaT75]

There is no such template as post_ip_show !

[mtha]

There is no such template as post_ip_show !
:) template was changed in RC too.

it's postbit_ip

if you want, you can change this postbit_ip to:


<if condition="$show['ip']">
$vbphrase[ip]: $post[ip] <if condition="($post[proxyip] != '')"><br>(Proxy Detected! Real IP: $post[proxyip])</if>
<else />
<a href="postings.php?$session[sessionurl]do=getip&amp;p=$post[postid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/ip.gif" alt="$vbphrase[ip]" title="$post[ip]" border="0" /></a>
</if>

I'm confused. What exactly shoudl we add to postbit_ip...where does the code from iphidden and ipshow go?

[MaDCaT75]

can someone make this easy on me and translate it for RC2 :(

[mtha]

The MOD now work for vB3 RC4. See first post. (You may want to uninstall if you installed the version for beta7)
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=474503#post474503

I'm confused. What exactly shoudl we add to postbit_ip...where does the code from iphidden and ipshow go?Dont worry about that postbit_ip_show and hidden anymore, just replace postbit_ip by:
# Replace all by

no one can help without information. How can I know what you did wrong, if you only say it doesnt work in your board?

btw, if proxy is not detected (and not all proxy is detected, only most of them are), it should look normal, as if nothing happened :P

see thats just it i dont think i did wut would you need to see to tell

[mtha]

means you are having problems or not? is that a question?

things you can test:

- open post table (in phpMyAdmin, for example), and sort by proxyip, see if you have any IP in there
SELECT * FROM `post` WHERE 'proxyip' !='';

If there're some IPs in there, means you did record the proxy IPs. otherwise, it could either be none of the new posts posted under any ip or your proxy function doesnt work.

MAKE SURE that you did all the changes in the files correct.
- add any IP into some post that you can check, using phpMyAdmin, and see if it shows up in your testing post

good luck



it's hard to help, without information, you know. if you do everything correct, it should work properly.

sorry for not being to much help I think I followed the directions exactly however I really know nothing about this stuff and im just learning this is wut I see i tried to run the query again and it tells me duplicate entry

[NexVision]

ok i did some more looking and it shows me a proxy ip for 2 users on the last page of the post table so i guess i ++++ed up on the templates somewhere

[mtha]

ok i did some more looking and it shows me a proxy ip for 2 users on the last page of the post table so i guess i ++++ed up on the templates somewhere
check that post id + thread ID to go with it. View that post, and click on IP, see if it call the new template.


also, check this part in postings.php


// Begin proxyip hack - HacNho
if ($postinfo[proxyip] != '')
{
eval(print_standard_error('thread_displayproxyip', 1, 0));
}
else
{
eval(print_standard_error('thread_displayip', 1, 0));
}
// End proxyip hack - HacNho



and phrase thread_displayproxyip. Make sure the phrase property is correct

[NexVision]

ok I checked all those things now when I go to a post where the user is behing a proxy i get the following message pic 1

so I did a phrase search and got this pic 2

I didnt write the file, i generate the file. It'd be much easier if you use the tool YaME (Yet another Mod Editor) (http://www.boardmod.org/downloads.php#bc01) that go with BoardMod (www.boardmod.org (http://www.boardmod.org))

otherwise, just here's the rule:

each commands should open by <command> and closed by </command>

[Eagle Creek]

It doesn't work here :(

first I get an error by the MYSQL: Duplicate column name 'proxyip'

But this column isn't in the Database! So I can't remove it too.

Second of all: The IP Address is: *. The host name is: *. but I don't see the Proxy message.

[Eagle Creek]

Ok, that problem is solved.

So it's working now. But: when I block an IP address I can't access the forum. When I use proxy, I can access again. When I'm posting the mod can see that I am with proxyserver... but> how can I keep them banned? The system must see that I'm on proxy and the originally address is banned.
Is this possbile?

Someone who knows the anwser?

Someone who knows the anwser?This proxy is only for posts, and record "real IP" into post table. I did not do anything with online users and banning system.

I think BAN system do work with regular IP (which would be proxy IP in your case), so if you want to ban someone, you have to ban his proxy IP. there's nothing related to real IP revealed yet.

For rightnow, I am not interested in banning system (I dont ban anyone, there's no bad guy in my site tho), so ... I dont think I can help you yet.


anyway, if you wanna write it yourself, check out this part in functions.php


// ###################### Start checkipban #######################
function verify_ip_ban()
{
// checkes to see if the current ip address is banned
global $vboptions, $session;
$vboptions['banip'] = trim($vboptions['banip']);
if ($vboptions['enablebanning'] == 1 AND $vboptions['banip'])
{
$addresses = explode(' ', preg_replace("/[[:space:]]+/", " ", $vboptions['banip']) );
foreach ($addresses AS $val)
{
if (strpos(' ' . IPADDRESS, ' ' . trim($val)) !== false)
{
eval(print_standard_error('error_banip'));
}
}
}
}



You need to mahe sure that $proxyip is detected, and then compare this value with $val, something like


if (strpos(' ' . $proxyip, ' ' . trim($val)) !== false)
{
eval(print_standard_error('error_banip'));
}


Maybe you just need to add the code bellow


if (strpos(' ' . IPADDRESS, ' ' . trim($val)) !== false)
{
eval(print_standard_error('error_banip'));
}



remember, I DID NOT test the script, so if you try, give it some extra carefull :D

there is an IP link or icon under your post (if you have permission to view posts' IP).

did you change the post_ip template? if yes, then maybe you dont have Proxy (or proxy not detectable).

Check the posts table, and see if you have any information in proxyip column for any post:

- open post table (in phpMyAdmin, for example), and sort by proxyip, see if you have any IP in there, or run this querry:

SELECT * FROM `post` WHERE 'proxyip' !='';

If there're some IPs in there, means you did record the proxy IPs, check the template. Otherwise, it could either be none of the new posts posted under any ip OR your proxy function doesnt work.

MAKE SURE that you did all the changes in the files correct.
- add any IP into some post that you can check, using phpMyAdmin, and see if it shows up in your testing post

This proxy is only for posts, and record "real IP" into post table. I did not do anything with online users and banning system.

I think BAN system do work with regular IP (which would be proxy IP in your case), so if you want to ban someone, you have to ban his proxy IP. there's nothing related to real IP revealed yet.

For rightnow, I am not interested in banning system (I dont ban anyone, there's no bad guy in my site tho), so ... I dont think I can help you yet.


anyway, if you wanna write it yourself, check out this part in functions.php


// ###################### Start checkipban #######################
function verify_ip_ban()
{
// checkes to see if the current ip address is banned
global $vboptions, $session;
$vboptions['banip'] = trim($vboptions['banip']);
if ($vboptions['enablebanning'] == 1 AND $vboptions['banip'])
{
$addresses = explode(' ', preg_replace("/[[:space:]]+/", " ", $vboptions['banip']) );
foreach ($addresses AS $val)
{
if (strpos(' ' . IPADDRESS, ' ' . trim($val)) !== false)
{
eval(print_standard_error('error_banip'));
}
}
}
}



You need to mahe sure that $proxyip is detected, and then compare this value with $val, something like


if (strpos(' ' . $proxyip, ' ' . trim($val)) !== false)
{
eval(print_standard_error('error_banip'));
}


Maybe you just need to add the code bellow


if (strpos(' ' . IPADDRESS, ' ' . trim($val)) !== false)
{
eval(print_standard_error('error_banip'));
}



remember, I DID NOT test the script, so if you try, give it some extra carefull :D


Hmmm, I'm affraid I don't have enough PHP knowledge to make something like that :(. Any idea's? Does somebody want to make something like this?

Hmmm, I'm affraid I don't have enough PHP knowledge to make something like that :(. Any idea's? Does somebody want to make something like this?
Try this:

in functions.php

Look for
if (strpos(' ' . IPADDRESS, ' ' . trim($val)) !== false)
{
eval(print_standard_error('error_banip'));
}

Add after:

if (strpos(' ' . PROXYIP, ' ' . trim($val)) !== false)
{
eval(print_standard_error('error_banip'));
}


(given that you did installed my mod)


PS. I DIDNOT test the function, so if you want to do it, backup first.

My syntax in online.php looks like this

$allusers = $DB_site->query("

There is no "user.username as loginname" in it !

the installation files are updated.

Can you help ?In online.php, replace the old part by this one:


// HN - ProxyIP UserOnline - BEGIN
$allusers = $DB_site->query("
SELECT user.username, session.useragent, session.location, session.lastactivity, user.userid, user.options, session.host, session.proxyip, session.badlocation, session.incalendar, user.aim, user.icq, user.msn, user.yahoo,

LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user USING (userid) ", ", " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user") ."
WHERE session.lastactivity > $datecut
". iif(!$vboptions['WOLguests'], " AND session.userid = user.userid", "") ."
ORDER BY $sqlsort $sortorder
");
// HN - ProxyIP UserOnline - END



Or you just need to add session.proxyip, after session.host, in the original online.php file

[SmartGnome]

I have installed the hack..... Thanks MTA and now I'm looking for proxy users.

[Merjawy]

I just installed it and done what you said in the last 2 posts and still don't see nothing

all I see is theres what looks like a dash next to the original IP icon

but I only see the one IP in posts and in whos online.. I am using proxy myself and it just shows the one IP

I am using 3.0.3 btw

and I am not a newbie to hacking so I did everything correctly
I turn on my proxy I see the new IP (the proxy iP), I turn my proxy off I see my real IP nothing more , it won't show if I was behind proxy


also on that board I am pretty sure at least 90% of users/visiters are behind proxy :)

[Merjawy]

OOps.. I am a newbie after all :)

sorry mate.. I didn't have user agent on :)

its working

thnx

[Logan70]

Did you install it straight from the install notes or was there mods needed?

I am looking at this and want to make I get it right the first time.

Anything will help.

thanks

[MickDoneDee]

*install* on vB3.0.3. Wow, most complicated hack I've installed to date. Now just waiting for someone to come online with a proxy server to see if the hack works. ;)

Is it really that complicated? :)

:) why dont you get a proxy for yourself, log into your board, and check :>
that way you know exactly what you have.

However, if some proxy doesnt return values, you may not have expected answer.

no, you dont need any other mods for this to work, but you need to install ... vBulletin :>

[MickDoneDee]

Thanks, had a member showup a few moments ago using a proxy server. Your hack works like a charm. I'd like to give viewing permissions to my supermods since they are online more than me and keep a better eye on things than I do. How do I give them permission?

[MickDoneDee]

I'd like to give viewing permissions to my supermods since they are online more than me and keep a better eye on things than I do. How do I give them permission?
Admin cp -> Usergroups -> Usergroup Manager -> Click Go to edit Supermoderator permissions -> Select Yes option for all Who's Online Permissions.

I may have encountered a bug since installing this hack. The hack requires the User Agent display to be on in Who's Online to view the real IP address. The default setting for the User Agent display is off. I tried modifying the Whosonline template to have the UA display on by default but couldn't do it. So, I decided to change the template back to the original condition using Revert. After clicking Revert I got a popup warning and continued with the Revert. To my horror it DELETED the Whosonline template. I asked for advice on vB.com to restore the template and it was suggested that I should restore the master template:
AdminCP > Styles & Templates > Upload / Download Styles > Click on import.

This restored the Who's Online template without overwriting my existing template modifications. They also suspected the bug occurred because of a hack I may have installed. Does anyone here have a test forum with this hack installed and would like to see if this hack has caused a problem with the Revert function for the Whosonline template?

Does anyone know how to have UA on by default when loading Who's Online?

Well i've installed everything as I should and when I click the computer Icon on the post, I get the following page (View image). Shouldn't that be something different?

Yes, that should be different because the New Phrase: thread_displayproxyip shows:

The proxy IP Address is: $postinfo[ipaddress]<br>
The proxy host name is: $postinfo[hostaddress]<br>
The real IP Address is: $postinfo[proxyip]

any ideas why anyone?

[Neal-UK]

any ideas why anyone?it shows when i change the phrase 'thread_displayip'

Is this right?

[MickDoneDee]

Neal, the three lines of info should start with:

The proxy IP Address is:
The proxy host name is:
The real IP Address is:

if you have modified the thread_displayip template as suggested in Proxy
Detector v3.1. *

* The above line is incorrect. It should read:
if you have created the thread_displayproxyip phrase as suggested in Proxy Detector v3.1.

What hack have you installed exactly?

[Neal-UK]

Neal, the three lines of info should start with:

PD v3.1

I'm uninstaling it anyhow.

[MickDoneDee]

PD v3.1

I'm uninstaling it anyhow.
Neal, I made an error when I said:
if you have modified the thread_displayip template as suggested in Proxy Detector v3.1.

it should say:
if you have created the thread_displayproxyip phrase as suggested in Proxy Detector v3.1.

The phrase thread_displayip already exists. You are not meant to touch that. You are meant to create a NEW phrase called thread_displayproxyip.

In the Text field you should insert:

The proxy IP Address is: $postinfo[ipaddress]<br>
The proxy host name is: $postinfo[hostaddress]<br>
The real IP Address is: $postinfo[proxyip]

That will give you the proper display.

Did you do all the steps, including this one?:

### Run the Following SQL Query (for POST)
ALTER TABLE post ADD proxyip VARCHAR(50) not null AFTER ipaddress;

### Run the Following SQL Query (for WOL)
ALTER TABLE session ADD proxyip VARCHAR(50) not null AFTER `host`;


you have to have that field to store proxyIP, otherwise you will get the default IP page as you had

Yes I did, and checked the database and it was all in there. I may have done something else wrong but who knows. I'm normally okay at adding hacks but I'll leave this one for now....:ermm:

Good job with it anyhow, wish I could make them!

[mtha]

The new template will ONLY be displayed when PROXYIP exists (recorded).

You should try to add (manually) some number into the proxyip field of some post that you KNOW (in order to test). If you have the number appeared in "show IP windows" then you are fine, just check the code to detect the proxy. Some proxys are not detectable.



btw, the code only work for NEW posting. it wouldnt know the proxyip for old posts.

[Goodspeed]

I've just installed it and faced to the same problem... Looks like information do not add into proxyip in the post table. This field clean. Could you advise something?

do some checking as I said earlier first. I wont advice if I dont know more detail

[theArchitect]

If I could ask for some assistance as this is not working.

If I use the link http://YourDomain/Yourforum/online.php?ua=1 then I get the new look Who's Online page with all of the relevant details. However, this info is not saved and when I next go to Who's Online it has reverted back to its original state.

Also, when I click on the IP info button in the postbit I just get the regular IP info postings.php page. I don't get the proxy ip is etc which is shown in attachment 1.

I am running 3.0.3 so this may have something to do with it.

Any help would be most appreciated.

[MickDoneDee]

Look at the bottom of Who's Online - you should see these settings:

Display: All (space) User Agent: No (space) Per Page: 20

They are the default settings that appear whenever you load http://YourDomain/Yourforum/online.php?

To see the results of the Proxy Detector v3.1 hack you need to select User Agent: Yes

The Real IP is seen above the user agent info and if a Proxy IP is detected you will see the round blue icon with question mark within the user agent info. Mouse-over that to see the Proxy IP.

If you are concerned about the User Agent setting defaulting every time you leave and return to Who's Online then keep Who's Online open but minimised as an icon on your taskbar while you browse the rest of the site in another open window.

*looks sheepishly stupid for a moment*.

Thankyou. Although, in the first screen shot is that suppose to be displayed when I click on the IP address icon located next to each post?

[MickDoneDee]

When a person creates a post obviously that post is recorded in the database with IP address info which is accessible by mouse-over or clicking the ip.gif. If the person was using a proxy IP when they posted that too will be recorded in the database so that when you click the ip.gif icon you get a message screen that contains both real and proxy IP addresses like you see in the first screenshot.

Thankyou for your assistance. But it doesn't seem to be doing this.

I have a couple of friends who have been helping me out by logging on from proxies to test my system and they are not being listed as proxies.

Does this hack work for annonymisers or just proxies?

[MickDoneDee]

Are your friends actually posting? If they are posting with a proxy that IP should appear in the Proxy IP field in your database and be displayed in http://yourforum.com/postings.php?do=getip&p=xxxxxxx where xxxxxxx is the postid.

Have you got access to your database to check?

It seems that people having a hard time turning User Agent ON so I would suggest taking the ProxyIP Icon OUT of the user Agent


You can Use this instead:


### ACP/Edit TEMPLATE: whosonlinebit
## Look for:

<if condition="$show['useragent']">

## Add BEFORE:
<if condition="$userinfo[proxyip]">
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/question_icon.gif" alt="$userinfo[proxyip]" />

[Eagle Creek]

Is there a possibilaty to ban people with a proxy?

With this hack I can see their real IP. But when I ban that IP, and their proxy IP they can just take another proxy from the net and start posting again..
Cause the ACP doesn't use the info/doesn't see's the info.

So when a user's real IP and proxy IP are banned the forum doesn't do anything when a person is posting again.

Do you understand?

[MickDoneDee]

Is there a possibilaty to ban people with a proxy?

So when a user's real IP and proxy IP are banned the forum doesn't do anything when a person is posting again.That's why you need to add Proxy ip to real ip conversion (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=69295). It compliments this hack very well so that you can reveal people's real IP address when they are using Proxys AND, most importantly, ban those users, if necessary, by their REAL ip address. I haven't had to ban anyone, yet, in this manner, but I have forums which allow guests to post so it is vital that I can stop them flooding the forum by banning their real ip.

To install Proxy Detector including changes to WOL five files were edited. To reverse the procedure just overwrite these files with the originals:

includes/init.php
includes/functions_newpost.php
postings.php
includes/sessions.php
online.php

[clearchannel]

I have a silly question. Am I correct in assuming that installing HN Proxy Detextor 3.01 install(s) both the Proxy Detextor for Posts and Who's On Line, and HN Proxy Detextor WOL only install Proxy Detextor for Who's on Line?

Also when running the two SQL queries, should I run them individually in ADMINCP or together in MySqlAdmin?

Thanks in advance.
