You know IPs can be spoofed, right?

I've unfortunately had to remove the attachment for the time being..

Hopefully the author can make some necessary adjustments to the installation, and it can be re-uploaded again shortly.

all fixed, organized the code alot better too =) Now will send email/log to file when unauthorized user tries to login.

I suppose you have never tried to login at more tham one PC. HMM not sure this is such a good Idea. Unless you have a static IP this is not good.

That is common sense and i'm really tired of hearing people complain and moan about the usage of modifications. This is not simply directed towards you mholtum. Time and time again, when someone creates a piece of work someone always has to come out of their hole and try to make a claim as to why the modification "is not good or should not be used". I'm pretty sure if people wanted to use their admincp at other terminals they would make intelligent arragements to do so. It's a code, we shoulden't have to hear debates about why people shoulden't add this or that to their community because of unpractacality or your take on various ethical issuues.

I'm not coming back into this thread so don't waist your time.

Good work cerjam by the way

Well then i suppose you can just got right back into ipauth.php and add your new ip :idea:

one a side note it would be a pain in the butt for dial up folks, does this support wildcards?
