Xortify - Fortify your XOOPS.

Xortify is a network security drone that uses Web 2.0 techniques to link between your XOOPS installs and other via a XML Cloud. This will prevent security intrusions to your XOOPS with accurate deceptive notation of the intruder and prevent any farmed attacks. It is an accessory and required Protector to be installed an running to be part of the hookup. Otherwise it will run without protector just make sure you deselect protector as a provider.

It will display a template if you are banned and is an accessory to protector or any other firewall technology. The site itself is driven from http://www.xortify.com .. Cloud computing is web 2.0/3.0 stuff it used a SOAP XML exchange backend to work, this will eventually be included in XOOPS as a support class, that is SOAP protocol.

A cloud computing process is one which staggers multiple networks sometime and mainly unknown to the webmaster into a network or cloud of data. In this example it is IP and Netaddy names to control access lists.

This will prevent predators from exposing your network to lag and other attacks from link farming, often this means many XOOPS are attacked in occasions which is all the time caught by protector, this way if an attack is in process across a large spectrum of links, your site will down itself to your sourced attack even if it is discovered on a completely unaffiliated site that is link farmed to yours or on a XOOPS User list.

Installation

If you are running XOOPS 2.4 remove all post and pre loaders for xortfy from mainfile.php and footer.php in the XOOPS root path, this is for an upgrade, 1.16 uses preloaders to operate.

replace the files and upgrade the module in system -> modules.

If you are runnin XOOPS 2.3 do not remove the post or pre loaders and replace the files.

For a clean installation copy the module to the right path and install, set up a username and password for xortify and your in business.

Has anyone tried this module? It sounds like it would be a boon to anyone suffering from spammers...

hmm i just installed it on 2.4.4 but I can't sign up. i get a page with header and no body. debug says:

I recently had to transfer my sites over to a new server, it was a bit unresponsive before... You should be able to access it no worries as long as you have php soap installed.. It uses this for the API.. Most services have this..

Catch me on skype tonight if you like and i will debug it with you..

why xortify disabled jquery in control panel or admin area .. when i comment

//@include( XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/modules/xortify/include/pre.loader.mainfile.php' );

and

//@include( XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/modules/xortify/include/post.loader.mainfile.php' );

in mainfile.php file .. jquery work normaly .. i use xoops 2.5.1

You don't need to include those lines unless you are running XOOPS 2.3.x and all previous versions.. Anything after that uses the preloaders.
