Hello

Can someone suggest a good mod for detecting who , or what IP may be trying to login with my admin account for our forums.

Happened a couple times where I try and get into admincp, and it says its failed 5 times.
funny thing is, I am typing my password correctly, and have only tried once
LOL:

apparently, someone is trying to login with my username, and is failing (thank god for that at least )

If I could find out the IP address of the person trying to login, I can at least attempt to ban it

Thanks

Read this - How To Make My Forums More Secure - and make sure your admin cp and mod cp are htaccess protected.

I think there is a mod for 3.0 to get the IP, but I'm not sure it was ported to 3.5 or above. Have you tried searching on "admin*" "all mods" "titles only"?

found one for log logins but, its not specific to admincp
thanks for the "more secure" link
I think most of that's been done, but I'll check it out

and I will try looking for more "mods" to log events
