IP Address Range Ban

Hello, I am trying to put an IP ban in place for a provider that refuses to work with us to deal with a case of absuse of our website. The native regex I am trying to use is:

^213\.5\.([0-9]|[0-9][0-9]|10[0-2])\.[0-9]+

for the range 213.5.0.0 - 213.5.102.255

However, XOOPS will not take it, despite allowing for regular expressions in the IP. Any ideas about how to put this ban in place?

Xoops does not work with range yet (hope someday it would be implemented). You would have to put it in htaccess with mod-rewrite (apache server)

Try this regex instead
^213.5.([0-9]|[0-9][0-9]|10[0-2])

sorry after some playing with my regex tester (The Regex Coach), I came up with this:

^213.5.((10[0-2])|[0-9]{1,2})\.

Unfortunately, I tried that, but XOOPS takes to the \. like a brick takes to water :( I think the regex functions in XOOPS are slightly limited. In doing so, it cleared out the ban list completely. (I guess that's better than banning the entire site).

ok - I added a bug report to the sourceforge bug tracker. You can track progress of it here:

we need a full-fledged ip ban utility, plus something that would gather all known ips for a user and display the ips to an admin for easy tracking/bannage


i might start something along those lines soon

It would be great if the IP ban window could be enlarged for those have a long list of banned IPs.

i'm thinking the ip ban utility should be separate from the Main Preferences. that's how i'll develop it anyways

if i can do a decent job, maybe the XOOPS devs would incorporate into 2.1
