IP Banning Script.. almost working

Anon

Hello.

I was asked to write a "IP Ban" feature into one of my scripts. I personally hate IP Ban features, but that is a whole other story.

Here is what I have, so far:

< ?

$IPBan = array("123.45.67.89", "555.55.55.55");

$verify = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
for ($i=0;$i<count($IPBan);$i++) {
if (eregi("$IPBan[$i]", $verify)) {
if ($verify !="$IPBan[$i]") {
echo "Access HTML CODE Goes Here";
} else {
print "Sorry you don't have acces to this page";
}
}
}
? >

When I place my IP address within the array, I get the "Sorry you don't have access to this page" message. But, when I take my IP address out, I just get a blank screen. <sigh>

Any ideas?
Or does anybody have another/better method of doing this??

(first time I've tried writing an IP ban script)

Thanks guys.

Hi,

try the following code:

<?PHP

$IPBan = array("123.45.67.89", "555.55.55.55");

$IPBanString = implode (":", $IPBan);

$verify = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");

if (strstr($IPBanString,$verify)) {
print "Sorry you don't have acces to this page";
} else {
echo "Access HTML CODE Goes Here";
}
?>

Greetings,
Thomas

Whatever you want your page to display to the user that makes it through!

Ok, heres a question....your script only works effectivly if the person has a Set I.P. which in my case mines dynamic... How the heck would I go go about fixing this problem...
