well, the server is me!!!
I also noticed this myself: I was using a connection to the local network (172.16.x.x) and somebody was outside my net. I got her session.
The php.ini session section is:
[Session]
; Handler used to store/retrieve data.
session.save_handler = files
; Argument passed to save_handler. In the case of files, this is the path
; where data files are stored. Note: Windows users have to change this
; variable in order to use PHP's session functions.
session.save_path = /tmp
; Whether to use cookies.
session.use_cookies = 1
; Name of the session (used as cookie name).
session.name = PHPSESSID
; Initialize session on request startup.
session.auto_start = 0
; Lifetime in seconds of cookie or, if 0, until browser is restarted.
session.cookie_lifetime = 0
; The path for which the cookie is valid.
session.cookie_path = /
; The domain for which the cookie is valid.
session.cookie_domain =
; Handler used to serialize data. php is the standard serializer of PHP.
session.serialize_handler = php
; Percentual probability that the 'garbage collection' process is started
; on every session initialization.
session.gc_probability = 1
; After this number of seconds, stored data will be seen as 'garbage' and
; cleaned up by the garbage collection process.
session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440
; Check HTTP Referer to invalidate externally stored URLs containing ids.
session.referer_check =
; How many bytes to read from the file.
session.entropy_length = 0
; Specified here to create the session id.
session.entropy_file =
;session.entropy_length = 16
;session.entropy_file = /dev/urandom
; Set to {nocache,private,public} to determine HTTP caching aspects.
session.cache_limiter = nocache
; Document expires after n minutes.
session.cache_expire = 180
; use transient sid support if enabled by compiling with --enable-trans-sid.
session.use_trans_sid = 1
url_rewriter.tags = "a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=fakeentry"
here's the login part:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body bgcolor=orange>
<?php
$conexion=mysql_connect(xxx,xxxx,xxx)
or die("Error de conexión a la base de datos");
mysql_select_db("xxxxxx");
$consulta="Select * from usuarios where nick=\"".$Nick."\" and password=MD5(\"".$Password."\");";
$resultado=mysql_query($consulta);
$num_filas=mysql_num_rows($resultado);
if ($num_filas == 1){
$usuario=$Nick;
session_name();
session_start();
session_register("usuario");
echo "<script language=\"JavaScript\">parent.frames[0].location.href=\"top2.php\";</script>";
echo "<script language=JavaScript>parent.frames[1].location.href='contenido.php';</script>";
echo "<script language=JavaScript>parent.frames[2].location.href='anuncios.php?categoria=comunicados';</script>";
}else{
echo "<center><h1>Falló</h1><br>";
echo "Pinche <a href=login.html>aqui</a> para volver a intentarlo</center>";
}
?>
</body>
</html>
and finally one of the page that make use of the session variables
<?php
session_name();
session_start("usuario");
if(!(session_is_registered("usuario"))){
session_unset();
session_destroy();
}
