[EXIDE]

Hello,

i am writing a MFC application which i want to be able to reply to a thread in my forum. Its meant as a request button which simply posts the username into a fixed ( non changing ) topic.

I've successfully done login by now. A simple php script accepts the username and pw ( both as md5 ) and checks the users details with the prebuilt vb api.

PHP Code:

// Includes
require_once('./global.php');
require_once(DIR . '/includes/functions_login.php');

// Fetch Ip
function fetch_ip()
{
        return $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
}

// Fetch Date
function fetch_date()
{
    return date("F j, Y, g:i a"); // March 10, 2001, 5:16 pm
}

// Check Request
if( $_POST['do'] == 'Login' )
{
    // this fuunction parses _GET data into an array
    $vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array(
        'vb_login_username' => TYPE_STR,
        'vb_login_password' => TYPE_STR,
        'vb_login_md5password' => TYPE_STR,
        'vb_login_md5password_utf' => TYPE_STR,
        'postvars' => TYPE_STR,
        'cookieuser' => TYPE_BOOL,
        'logintype' => TYPE_STR,
        'cssprefs' => TYPE_STR,
        'HWID' => TYPE_STR,
    ));

    // can the user login?
    $strikes = verify_strike_status($vbulletin->GPC['vb_login_username']);
    
    if($vbulletin->GPC['vb_login_username'] == '')
    {
        echo "PW";
        exit;
    }

    // login attempt
    if(!verify_authentication($vbulletin->GPC['vb_login_username'], $vbulletin->GPC['vb_login_password'], $vbulletin->GPC['vb_login_md5password'], $vbulletin->GPC['vb_login_md5password_utf'], $vbulletin->GPC['cookieuser'], true))
    {
        // THIS IS THE BAD PASSWORD AUTHENTICATION SECTION
        echo "PW";
        exit; 
    }
    else 
    {
        // THIS IS THE GOOD PASSWORD AUTHENTICATION SECTION
         process_new_login($vbulletin->GPC['logintype'], $vbulletin->GPC['cookieuser'], $vbulletin->GPC['cssprefs']);
         
         // HWID check
         $Transfer_Username = $vbulletin->GPC['vb_login_username'];
         $cur_userid = $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'];
        $Real_HwidArray = $db->query("SELECT Hwid FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE userid = $cur_userid");
        $Real_Hwid = "";
        while ($cur = $db->fetch_array($Real_HwidArray))
        {
              $Real_Hwid = $cur['Hwid'];
        }
         $Transfer_Hwid = $vbulletin->GPC['HWID'];
        if( $Real_Hwid == '' )
        {
            // Check if his Hwid is ok
            if( strlen( $Transfer_Hwid ) < 5 ) 
            {
                // Bad hardware id
                echo "HW";
                exit;
            }
            
            // If the Hwid is ok, update his Hwid entry
            $UpdateInfo    = "UPDATE user SET Hwid = '".$Transfer_Hwid."' WHERE username = '".$Transfer_Username."'";
            $db->query($UpdateInfo);
        }
        else if($Transfer_Hwid != $Real_Hwid)
        {
            // Bad hardware id
            echo "HW";
            exit;
        }
    and so on...
