Killerz,
check

• you need check #!/usr/bin/perl or #!/usr/local/bin/perl at login.cgi
• you need edit path for $LOGON_STYLES at login.cgi
• Open LogonStyles.file: you need edit path for $ULTBB_SETUP, $UBB_LIBRARY, $PROTECTED_FILE, and $UBB_URL

This just keeps getting better and better!

Now the logon system 1.2 work for me...
but when i log on i can't see my board... i just see a gray page.

and why the logon.cgi don't get the cookie? i have to type my name and my pass each time...

another thing... it is possible to link directly to Ultimate.cgi (and previously added a couple of line) for make a verification of login... i mean Ultimate.cgi verify if i pass by the logon.cgi if yes ok, if not goto the logon.cgi...

do you understand me? (sorry i speak french)

i saw a site that has that...
so i know it's possible but it don't work for me...
this is the line the guy gave to me...
to insert right under &ReadParse;

&ReadParse;
&get_cookie;

if ((($cookie{UserCheck} ne "yes") && ($in{'action'} eq "intro")) | | (($cookie{UserCheck} ne "yes") && (@in == 0))) {
print "Location: $CGIURL/logon.cginn";
exit;
}

if ($in{'action'} eq "Redirect") {
print "Location: $in{'GoTo'}nn";
exit;
} #end Redirect check

the lines added are in green
and he told me to remove the other &get_cookie;
there was 2
what do you think about this?

What's going to be in VERSION 1.3, you ask?

In version 1.3, nothing will be change but i'll add the Control Panel for it. Sound great?

By the way, anyone in here good at javascript? Ok, i have been using a little javascript code to get the Username and Password into my Logon script, but it ain't work. Here is my code:


HELP ME WITH IT. THANKZ!

Any progress on this one? I'm too new to this stuff to really help out w/ the coding but if perhaps you need some customized graphics for this or something, I can perhaps help on that.

I'm really looking forward to the future versions of this and have been checking continously to see if an updated version has been released.

Slick - I agree.
Maybe on the next versin you kind make the logon version on the Ultiamte.cgi, not on a seperate page, makes it look more like VBulletin, more convienient to users.
Sorry for the spelling.

Pyros--

I think the hope for this though is that someone would have to logon before they could get to Ultimate.cgi. If they tried to load Ultimate.cgi directly, it should toss them back to Logon.cgi. This script would be (hopefully) for making private boards.

Can I make some comments about v1.2?

• I have an idea to make the logon system like it will detect if the cookie is exsit in the browser, or else it will give them 2 options, register or logon.
• Is there possible to detect cookie so that user can auto-logon (Have an option in the logon page)
• IF possible. I can help out with PHP/MySQL so make logon system more security by creating a .htaccess/.htpasswd file so it will protect the page more security. Idea is like this...
  When first install. It will query all members data and insert in MySQL entry. By using PHP to create a .htpasswd file and protect the ubb directory.
  When a user updated their password. Originally it will re-write the member file but not it will re-write both, members file and MySQL database.

Just my comments, since I like this system very much and hopefully can help out with the v1.3

Take care everyone...

Hi Guys,

Sorry for bothering but i cant figure out how to install this logon system.
(i did manage to install the who's online hack though

I downloaded the logon system 1.2 and read all the files, readme.txt etc. but cant figure out what to do.

Could one of you discribe me how to install
the logon system (step 1 to ...) or point me in the direction for some help.

I'm wondering if i need to edit any files, Ultimate.cgi for example.


Hope you can help me,

Thanks,

Reload.

That would be fantastic if this could be tied into an .htpasswd file to protect the directories. I want my boards to be private but am going to manually have to do the .htacess/.htpasswd files until this is ready which hopefully would be soon.

I think some of the original thinking would be to use javascript to redirect people to the logon screen if they manually enter a URL but that wouldn't work because they could just hit stop before they are transferred (or turn off javascript). Tying this into .htpasswd seems MUCH better...

Ok, I've built a version that improves upon this one, but there is just one thing I need before I release it. I need a subroutine that does nothing more than check for the existance of a cookie (by this app.) If one exists, then a certain url is loaded. Othewise another url is loaded. Anyone have this?

Digital Boy--

Even with the code, will this work with the static html pages? I'm figuring it wouldn't be very secure if people could just type in the URLs directly and bypass the cgi files. They would be able to see everything then and it wouldn't be private. Is there a way to tie a script like this together with .htpasswd which does block html files?

- Pfred

OK, I'm not a CGI guru, can someone now please explain me how to run this stuff, as the author included just a quarter of the needed instructions for a newbie like me?
Thank you anyway...
