 | IP banning by CIDR value How much of a hassle is it to come up with a PHP function of some kind that can check an IP to see if it's within a specified CIDR range? Say you get something like this: Quote:
I know I could just input that into iptables instead and be done with it, but all I want to do is stop the fool abusing our site from being able to register ( and therefore post ) and I'd rather not fill up the firewall with a bunch of crud.

  | Well, me being clueless and not knowing what a CIDR value is, I might not know how to answer your question...what is a CIDR value? Either way, if you want to ban all 68.240.x.x IP's and therefore stop registrations from that IP, you can do that...probably by putting 68.240.*.* into the ban list.

| That really wont stop someone who wants to attack you. If you really want to ban them, I would suggest some type of cookie ban. And make sure you use a very unique identifier for the cookie so it's harder to delete from their browser and come back. Banning an ip is only going to make them go look for a proxy. To be honest it's impossible to fully ban someone from a server if they know what they are doing. Most spammers have multiple computers, browsers, and ips. But I wish you the best of luck.

| Use CSF firewall and you can ban single IP's or whole countries. (This is for Unix Systems) it even add's itself to cPanel/WHM if you have it. |
