Installed it on RC3 and getting a blank page for Forum Firewall settings on all themes.

It is made for the default theme so if you have a custom theme that may be the issue.  Otherwise I need more info...   :-[

OK, installed on a small test forum and all is well. I do have a question about one feature.
If I install it on my main site, we have more than one admin. If I enable Admin IP Confirmation, will it block out the other admins if I input mine, or can I input multiple comma separated IPs ?

It will block them if they have different internet providers.  Something to look at for future versions...   :'(

FYI - I recommend that this mod is run in logging mode for a few days and make adjustments before turning on blocking mode.  I recommend this just to make sure you do not block your members.  8)

* K@ is confused...

"By downloading and/or using this MOD you agree to adhere to the following conditions for all versions of the Bad Behavior mod:"

Is that a typo?
:P

If I'm not mistaken, it includes the Bad Behavior mod, thus the reason for having to agree to its terms as well.

It was a typo...  BB is a separate mod.   :o

How many resources does this mod consume... let's say monthly?

Not sure what you mean by that question.   :-X

But the mod is coded with speed and memory conservation in mind.  :laugh:

Ok, yep, that is an idea for future development. For now, once I install it on the live site and do eventually set it for blocking mode, I will leave the Admin IP Confirmation turned off. 
Thanks.  :)

Hi Butch....

Thanks for a nice mod. Mods that extend security is always appreciated.

I have the Enotify mod installed and get a lot of error messages regarding this mod.

Bypass attempt!
 for /index.php?PHPSESSID=7d31a4b254d2f144b620a4bacdb65264&action=enotify

Bypass attempt!
 for /index.php?topic=287.msg590


Is this something in the configuration of your mod or something else....?

I wrote something I think will work yesterday but I still have to test it...  I usually run it a week live before publishing.  If you like, I can email you a copy and you can see if it works?

If you are not behind a proxy then uncheck "Enable Bypass Protection".  If you are you need to fix the information.  ie read "Admin Domain Name" for details.

I mean if it does too many queries to the database... you know, some mods can be heavy and eat a lot of resources... that's what i'm asking.

hey butchs,

Give it a day or two to confirm on your test site and then send it to me. I'll validate for you before you update the whole package (hopefully it's just a file overwrite instead of a mod re-install?) :)

Hi Butch...

When mailing warrents like

 Invalid ip!
 for /index.php?action=login2

i would be much appreciated if the IP address was mentioned to.

This mod works great and captures some of the intruders that are not covered by Honeypot and Spammer mod.

Best regards.

Hi Butch...

I have to ask and hopefully more will learn from it  ;)

What does this warning mean:

 Hack:  Redirect!
 for /index.php?wwwRedirect

 Hack:  Repeated!
 for /index.php?action=enotify


Best regards

That's normal.

The ?wwwRedirect is because the forum needed to get www. before the actual address.

The ?action=enotify is also nothing to worry about since eNotify needs to load from it.

Impostor.   ;D Some want it some do not but if you remove "Redirect|" from the xss and injection list it will go away.  Remember to leave one "|" between each phrase.

Sorry but you will need to uninstall and reinstall the new mod version.  But not a DB uninstall.

Please PM me your email.

Well, I get a blank white page with the default theme instead of a firewall settings page. There were no conflicts when installing with package installer. No error in the error log about it so I don't know where to start looking. What sort of info do you need?
