I am proud to announce the Authentication mod version 1.00 .
This mod allows you to add firewall like the one to login in to the vBulletin.com's members area, you choose the user name and the password in your forums settings after you enter the Admin CP, see the screenshots for more information .
This mod will be developed by the time to add more features .
Change log:
1.00 : First release.
1.01 : some bug fixes.
Note1:This mod works only if PHP is installed as module it will never work on PHP installed as CGI.
Note2:if you forget the password or the User or have a problem just add the following to the config.php :
then delete it after you have changed the pass or upgraded to the last version.

First post :)
Where I can set username/password?

not to be rude.. althought your screenshot may be self explanatory to most... and I do appreciate you releasing a mod here... english is the preferred language


:)

In vBulletin Options->Admin CP Authentication Settings .

I don't see such option :erm:

Not work . install but i cant see Admin CP Authentication Settings

Menasim,

seemed u've tried to use .htaccess & .htpassword ..
u should have upload demo .htacess & .htpassword for user to download
n md5 genereated password generating url

Sorry a little mistake, I updated the product you will see it after you imprt the new file .

it was a little bug I'v updated the XML file :)

Yeah, now I can see Admin CP Authentication Settings option :)
BUT! Setting username and password do not affect on AdmincP at all :(

Another problem :( I'm really sorry I assure you this is the last one. you can either download the new XML or import the plugin in this reply attachment .

Now, after importing product, browser displays blank page instead AdminCP :(

Anyone that gets this working, can you give us some English screen shots.

Thanks.

This mod is good for windows operating system users, on a Linux servers the best solution is to do that via .htaccess and .htpassword to protect directories. :)

I have uploaded a new screenshot :)

Still pretty easy to make a brute forcer. Getting the Post Data isnt hard :P

Great idea! I never say no to extra security. :)

Ok, i have Just installed this, and entered a username and password in Admin CP Authentication Settings

and enabled the security......

now it does not accept the username and password.....

I added the disable plugins, to the config to access the admin cp again, and tried different username and password.... still does not work..

any ideas?

Is this Problem with the new Update solved? :confused:

nice work man , Keep it going ;)

That wass a problem I can't login ever
I removed it

Thanks for sharing your hack, however THIS is a much easier and more flexible way to secure your CP, or any other directory on your forum.

Great hack, i like it ;)

this is a great idea but not workin

Same here...great Mod if it only worked using v3.6

Br.

not working boys :S

Couldn't you just manually make a protection gate in cpanel? Way easier.

I recently installed this and found that it would not accept the username/password I specified, and now I have effectively locked out of my Admin panel. I have manually removed all trace of this addon by deleting all the database entries relating to it, yet the damn login box still persists popping up all the time. Is there something else that could be causing it to remain?

Cheers for any help.

I've did the same!! How I am supposed to log in on my ADMINCP again?! anyone help please!

out, I logged in . . :-) used that plugin disable !

DISAABLE TO LOGIN TO ADMIN CP!!!!
pls help....
after i activate it,i cant login

See the Note 2 in this post:

Note2:if you forget the password or the User or have a problem just add the following to the config.php :

PHP Code:
define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

It's dont work with vb3.8
can somebody fix this problem :(
