Is the banning wizard a separte thing? If not I don't seem to be able to find it. This seems to be alot for not much.
Can a redirect for the ip be done? |

Check out the first link I posted in your other thread. This does exactly what you want. |

If you're taking ideas here on features that would be handy for dealing with troublesome users, here's an idea:
Automatic post deletion with a random time delay This would make the trolls spend time writing, and it would look like the Admin manually observed their post and deleted it. This make for additional work and frustration to the troll, and could be useful for trolls for whom username lockouts (they just create new usernames) and IP banning (they use a proxy server to spoof the IPs) have been ineffectual.

I have a user who logs on fine but in the IP Gate Logs it shows him as having an 'unknown' IP address. What does this mean? Does he have some form of 'anonymous browsing' tool employed? |

I checked the code, no where in it does it handle or output an unknown ip address. He may have something setup that is blocking the ip from being sent. I need to add some code in to handle the unknown ip as this may cause problems. If you would export the iplog table to a text file if you can so I can see how it is getting written to the db and send me the link to get the file to my profile here.
This is the first time I seen this one.

Was just about to post the same issue: one of my users has had no IP since Dec 19th and ipgate was freaking out on line 102, only just got to talk to him today about it.
Here's his data from the iplog:
26223,"","unknown","rules.asp?cat=1","20040101124128"
26221,"","unknown","rules.asp","20040101124101"
26407,"","203.21.143.123, unknown","rules.asp","20040101130948" The last one was when I got him to use a proxy server to view the forum. |

Ok I think I figured this out, the unknown is comming from inc_ipgate.asp because the script is finding a value in the Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR").
I will code a fix to check for the value unknown and to check for an ip value in the Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"). If the requirements aren't met, then the script will default to Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR").
I may even drop the HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR totally from the script, gonna run some test. inc_ipgate.asp always assumed there was an ip address being used with no code to prevent non ip numbers to be checked.
here is a possible fix:
locate in inc_ipgate.asp and locate ~aboutline 55:
if temp <> "" Then userip = temp Else userip = Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR") End If
and change to
if (temp <> "") and (ubound(split(temp,".")) = 3) Then userip = temp Else userip = Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR") End If
patch available here if you are running ver 2.2.6 only http://www.gpctexas.net/inc_ipgate.txt
zip updated for the fix as well http://www.gpctexas.net/ipgate_v22.zip
The users that this is appearing are either using a proxy server or their isp is using a proxy. Ised about 6 different proxies and 1 returned unknown to my logs. |

Ok I feel like a toal newb... I'm trying to install your mod but can't figure out where to put this last part...
Add a link on your admin page to the admin file in this MOD:
" <LI><span class=""spnMessageText""><a href=""admin_ipgate.asp"">IPGate Configuration</a></span></LI>" & vbNewLine & _
What file does this actually go in?
Thanks in advance. |
