[ic] Found a great SSH/Remote Norton Commander like File/Admin Manager (Uses SSH not FTP) No more messed up uploads/downloads!

[interchange-users@icdevgroup.org (Chris Chaney)]

I found a great File Administration client that uses SSH to connect
(think of it as a secure telnet protocol).

It'll transfer everything appropriately.  No more hassle with
uploading/downloading ASCII or BINARY files.  It doesn't use the same
protocol as FTP so you won't have any problems.  It'll make editing
Interchange pages and files a breeze.  Chmod anything. Great Sorting
Features.  It's called WINSCP and you can download it at:

http://winscp.vse.cz/eng/index.php

You'll love it.

Chris

Subject: [ic] IP Logging

Hi guys/gals,

I'd like to prohibit the same user from creating 2 accounts.  Here is a
thought but if someone can advise the easiest way to do this, I'd
appreciate
it.

I'd like to create a table that contains the IP address of all user
accounts
(the data in this table will not be removed if the account is).  I would
then like new_account to value check the current IP Address against all
that
are in that table.

Current IP Address DOES NOT EXIST:
Proceed with account creation.

Current IP Address DOES EXIST (bounce to another page or display):
"We're sorry, we don't allow multiple accounts" or something to that
effect.

Is this possible?  If so, how can I obtain the IP address of a current
user.
Once I obtain it, how can I get it into a value of some sort in order to
be
written to the database?

I assume I can do [value name="blah" set="[data table='ip_log'
column='address' key='[data session username]']" hide=1] or something
like
this.

All the value checking, bounce, etc. I can handle, just need help w/ the
IP
Address part.

We're on a MySQL database and I have checked mysql.com (in hopes it was
similar to time/date) but don't see it.  If someone has a faster/better
solution, please advise.

Jim.
