Get an e-mail if someone is trying to access your Admin CP (With IP address)

Here's my version:

In sessions.php find this code:

    if (md5($loginpassword)!=$bbuserinfo[password]) {

right below it, add this code:

			$ipaddress=iif(getenv("REMOTE_ADDR")!="",getenv("REMOTE_ADDR"),$HTTP_HOST);
			$iphostname = @gethostbyaddr($ipaddress);
			$message="Someone is trying to login using your admin account!\n\nUsername he tried to use: $loginusername\nPassword he tried to use: $loginpassword (".md5($loginpassword)." in encryption)\n\nThe IP address is: $ipaddress\nThe host is: $iphostname";
			mail($webmasteremail,"Warning: vBulletin Admin Login Tried",$message,"From: \"$bbtitle Admin CP\" <$webmasteremail>");

You will get a message:

Someone is trying to login using your admin account!

Username he tried to use: xxx
Password he tried to use: xxx (xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx in encryption)

The IP address is: xx.xx.xx.xx

every time someone is trying to login to the admin cp with no success.

Have fun.

So I'm assuming it looks like this?

    if (md5($loginpassword)!=$bbuserinfo[password]) {
    	$ipaddress=iif(getenv("REMOTE_ADDR")!="",getenv("REMOTE_ADDR"),$HTTP_HOST);
			$iphostname = @gethostbyaddr($ipaddress);
			$message="Someone is trying to login using your admin account!\n\nUsername he tried to use: $loginusername\nPassword he tried to use: $loginpassword (".md5($loginpassword)." in encryption)\n\nThe IP address is: $ipaddress\nThe host is: $iphostname";
			mail($webmasteremail,"Warning: vBulletin Admin Login Tried",$message,"From: \"$bbtitle Admin CP\" <$webmasteremail>");

			eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate("error_wrongpassword")."\");");

In other words...leaving all the original code...and just adding those lines in the right place?

Great hack! I can't wait to use it. I just installed it down the the letter, but it doesn't seem to be working. I reread posts and read that the email doesn't come immediately, but it's been a day! Any possible reasons?
