I noticed on my forum that members often browse without being logged in. Could someone make a hack that would identify guests listed on the Who's Online page based on their IPs or partial IPs. For example, it could say 'This person might be...'.
Thanks. :classic:

umm would be a waste of server resources imo if you want to identify who a guest is turn on hostname lookup and switch spider ident on

wouldn't be that hard to code, here is how I would go:
The ip is already stored in the user table in the column ipaddress
fetch all usernames that match with the guest's ip address. Compare the ip address of the guest with the one in the user table, if they match, that guest might be that person.

Exactly what I was thinking, but I'm not very good with mySQL queries. :nervous:
