Thanks Erwin,

Just so that you know...i'm not a hacker. But I'll tell you what my log-in has...


I've used a log-in that is an include and then the log-in script that the include calls....
chdir("/usr/local/apache/sites/hystersisters.com/httpdocs/vb2/");
require("global.php");

I'm assuming that is calling global.php since it is included?


I've dumped my cookies and made sure that the admin control panel shows:

/ for path

and .hystersisters.com for cookie domain.

Now interesting...

I dumped my cookies and logged in via my forum home page. I checked my cookies:

hystersisters.com

I then went into my admin control panel...and after logging into my admin control panel I have extra cookies:

www.hystersisters.com bbadmin

I go to my test login (non-vb page) and yes it is all php

It doesn't recognize me. It does allow me to log in...and the log-in produces more cookies for:

hystersisters.com

And when I return to that page...it still doesn't recognize me as a registered member.

Here is the log-in hack I used once you call the "login code" through an include:

require("global.php");

if ($bbuserinfo['userid']!=0) {
$username=$bbuserinfo['username'];
  
print("<p align='center'>Welcome back,<br /> <b>$username!</b></p>");
print("<p align='center'><b>[ <a href='vb2/index.php'>Enter</a> ]</b></p>");

} else {

?>
<form action="http://www.hystersisters.com/vb2/member.php" method="post" />
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]" />
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="login" />
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
  <tr>
    <td align="left"><font class="verdana, arial, helvetica" size="1"><b>Username:</b></font></td>
    <td align="left"><input type="text" name="username" size="7" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="left"><font class="verdana, arial, helvetica" size="1"><b>Password:</b></font></td>
    <td align="left"><input type="password" name="password" size="7" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="center" colspan="2"><input type="submit" value="Login!" /></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>
<?

}

?>

thanks for your help!
