It is not directly configurable, but you can simply skip the code change in modcp/index.php, that way the option won't be shown in modcp.

it doesnt seem to work. I log in as an admin and post then as a test user with normal permissions and post and it doesnt see me as duplicate

OK stupid me fixed that

i do have a question. Can we exclude IPs from being listed? like the aol ones that pop up?

Hmmm, last post here was June of '06, but does anyone have this working in 3.6.4 or know of a new one for the latest version of vB?

This is working in 3.6.4 for me, but I installed in under 3.5. The only problem is there is no way to prune it and it is not sorted by date order.

Too bad there's no one willing to adapt it to vB 3.6 completely.

Just a hint for the people that still want to install this on a vB 3.5: database type must not be set to mysqli in config.php, otherwise it wil not work.

I'm also looking for one for 3.6 (even 3.7 when the stable release comes out)

I'm confused if this works with 3.6.8. Another admin I know uses a duplicate IP address detection mod, and they have 3.6.8...I can't seem to find the right one anywhere.

Can someone redo this for 3.7? :(

This version works in vb 3.7.1 PL1, except for 2 small things:

1. the phrase types. Here is a simple fix:
There is no 'Control Panel Global' phrase type. This should be 'GLOBAL' phrase type. So step 3 should be:

---------------

Add 2 new phrases

Phrase type: Global
Varname: dup_ip
Text: Duplicate IPs

Phrase type: Global
Varname: dup_ip_max
Text: Maximum username per page

---------------

2. The listing shows IP addresses, which link to a search for all users with that IP address: modcp/usertools.php?do=doips&ipaddress=xx.xxx.xx.xxx
xx.xxx.xx.xxx is the IP address. I suspect the hash is missing. That function is available from the user profile in modCP & adminCP anyway, so its not vital.

I was able to find a lot of members that had the same IP addresses as banned members.

I think this hack would be beneficial for many and it would be good if someone would release this in the vb 3.7 section. (with permission from tamarian or Djamil off course)

Since I migrated to 3.7.2 a few weeks before I will surely have a look at it myself, just wait a little bit. ;-)
