Administrative and Maintenance Tools - AdminCP Firewall ~ Protect your AdminCP!

This is a mod I made to increase the security of your forum!

It has the following features:

• Email alert when an Admin logs into the CP
• IP Checking for Admins
• E-Mail if the IP isn't whitelisted
• Block user access to the AdminCP if the IP isn't whitelisted
• E-Mail if someone fails an AdminCP login

Those features will allow you to secure your AdminCP - and the only upload required is the product file!

So, what are you waiting for? Install now

Good gracious! Is that it? Thanks for the heads up, bro! I thought it was gonna be a far more detailed process.

Awesome!

I just tried to set it up with my own IP and everything and it's blocked me from the ACP!


Sorry, you don't have permission to access the administrative controls on this page.

If you need to access this page, ask your lead administrator to enable your permissions for this page using the Administrator Permissions section of the control panel.

This may work.

Open your config.php and below<?php add this line:

PHP Code:

 define('CPFIREWALLDISABLEIPDENY', true); 


So it looks like this:

PHP Code:

<?php
define('CPFIREWALLDISABLEIPDENY', true);
/*=================================================  =====================*\

Thanks very much, Ozzy47. I read post #83 and have been looking for where I find config.php.

I searched the vb.org forums and apparently it's in forum/includes, but I don't know where to find that, either. I couldn't find it in cPanel.

I use FileZilla - it should be in there, right? :up:

Correct, it will be in what ever folder your forums resides in, so something like this, /public_html/forums/includes

Man. It was hidden away in there. I found it, though. So does this code work? You've tried it, have you?

Hey, bro. It didn't work, unfortunately. I edited the config.php as you said, then put the original config.php back in the includes folder afterward as I got an error message saying that without a config.php file I couldn't access the ACP.

Any more tips? I could certainly use them.

Thanks, man.

I tried the "disbale hooks" code that was in here as well, and that didn't work either.

Ahhhhhh! haha

Rather confusing.. You say you edited the config.php and then put back the original..
If you put back the original then the edited config.php should be the one to replace the original.
