i.p. tracking

[cheatpark]

Can someone help me find a php script that tracks i.p. addresses and only lets certain i.p's access a php page. I need this to make only me able to access phpmyadmin on my site. Also could someone show me where I should put it in the code or give me instructions (something like that). Thanks in advance.

I think you can put some code in your .htaccess file to block certain ip addresses from viewing the files in the dir.

$REMOTE_ADDR contains the IP address. Figure out the rest. ;)

heh, i was just talking to him, i did it :biggrin2: yay!

Yeah, I'm using cyber's special php code. Here's the code just incase anyone was interested:



<?php
if ($REMOTE_ADDR=="insert your i.p. address here") {
// OPEN THE PHPMYADMIN SECTION
} else {
die ("Sorry! This is not a public area of cheatpark.net.");
}
?>

But you can use phpMYadmin build in psw protection, and dont use IP, you should send psw headers, and use php global psw vars...

How do I do that? Or is there I way I can tell the script to look for a file on my computer with a password?

Im not sure, but phpmyadmin send you the global password+username variables...and you dont need to login every-time...

just for test, request one of your good friend, and see if he can login to phpmyadmin...

So how can I change this username and password?
