Proxy Hack v1.0
 

Ooook,

Well, this hack is a little thing to give you vB admins and moderators some more information about the users using proxys on your board (mainly, thier IP address).

The following version is upto date and works with vb 2.2.8 and whatever else. This version was updated by Stadler to work with 2.2.8. I cannot provide support personally for ANY versions here. And I do not know what support Stadler can give you.

So, download the 2.2.8 update here

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

Everything below has to do with super old versions that don't matter.. because they are super old! You don't want them, so don't even read it!


STOP READING! hehe, anyway. I repeat:

VERSION 2.2.8 ABOVE ^
VERSION 2.2.5 BELOW

enjoy

Screenshots are in the posts to follow.

Let me know how you like it, or ways I could improve it. ^_^ :bunny:

Edit: Non intrusive version
This little edit simply adds the proxy info to the getip template. So when mods/admins click the "IP Logged" button/graphic if there is any proxy info, it will tell them instead of in postbit.

HEY MAN....

THIS IS A NICE HACK AND I LIKE IT....

THANKZ...:D:D:D:D

Uhh, your welcome <^_^;

doope hack man, I plan to install it later on (after a sleep, its 3am) get back to ya with the update! woot! woot!

Great HACK !!! Always though, never realized... ;)
Thanks.

Just an addendum: I noticed often I had better results with the HTTP_FORWARDED env var instead of HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR you used. I mean, first was filled, the second one no...

Actually there are a lot of vars that could be used, but a sequential check or both of them I think should be enough to catch most proxies...
Thanks again.

Bye

good !! great hack !!

i very like it !!:D

if thats someones real IP address they can get hacked, anywayz nice hack man, get it hacked and hack, LOL!

Umm, why would posting a picture of the IP make any difference?
There are tools out there that let you probe as many IP's as you want. Any real hackers/crackers will use tools like that. And if someone are really out to get you, it doesn't matter what kind of security-precautions you make :)
