Remote login

[g3nti]

Hi all,

function curl_vb($url,$data,$cookie,$method='POST')
	{
	
		
		$ch = curl_init();
		
		// set the target url
		curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url);
		
		// howmany parameter to post
		curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, count($_POST));
		
		// the parameter 'username' with its value 'johndoe'
		curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$data);
		
		//cookie?!?!
		curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, $cookie);
		
		$result= curl_exec ($ch);
		curl_close ($ch);
		print $result;
			
	
	}

i'm using this script to try to login remotely to my vb. Login runs perfectly but the user logged on my forum has the same ip of the server. any idea?

Since it's done in PHP the server itself is doing the request, and the IP is based off of the requesting machine. The only way to show their IP would be to pass it off in a variable and do an update of the appropriate records.

Hi g3nti

I use this method of login on my main site to let members sign up or register

<form action="http://www.ukbusinesslive.co.uk/forum/login.php?do=login" target="_new" method="post" onsubmit="md5hash(vb_login_password, vb_login_md5password, vb_login_md5password_utf, $show[nopasswordempty])">
  	  <input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />
  	  <input type="hidden" name="url" value="/forum" />
  	  <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />
  	  <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password_utf" />
  	  <input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]" />
  	  <label>Username:<input name="vb_login_username" type="text" id="login" tabindex="1" class="bginput" accesskey="u"/></label>
  	  <label>Password:<input name="vb_login_password" type="password" id="password" tabindex="1" class="bginput" /></label>
      <label>Remember me?<input type="checkbox" name="cookieuser" value="1" id="cb_cookieuser" tabindex="1" /></label>
  	  <input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit" tabindex="1" value="Login" accesskey="s" class="button" />
       
</form>

Its just basic HTML and so easy, looks impressive too, just change my details at the begining of the code for yours, its pretty self explanitary.



Let me know how you got on if you decide to use it
