Having problem submitting to Link-O-Rama

Im having a slight problem. It is saying that I submited a site within the last 24 hours, but I havent submitted a site in 3 days. Not to sure if there is anything you can do. But I hope so, thanks :D

You sharing an IP with anyone? Or on a ISP that shares an IP?

The script checks for duplicate IP's on the same 24 hour period.

There's 4 other people on this board with the same IP as you - all on shawcable.net from what I can see.

I really have no way around this other than turning off the IP checker, which I'm not going to do :(

I wouldn't hurt - I know a lof of places that check IP's & thse Cable Modem companies are famous for giving everyone the IP of the closest router.

Hey GG, im with shawcable in calgary too and i dont think our IP's are shared. I was talking with AliMeBitch on ICQ and we do have different IP addresses.

I'm guessing that I am probably one of the 4 on this board showing up as the same IP? Maybe your script is detecting the subnet or gateway?

Yes, I show that you 2 have the same IP addy at times. I also show that you 2 have different IP's at times as well. I can only go by the info that I have in front of me & I really have no idea how the board or my admin detects what IP a user or submitter has :(

AliMeBitch,

You can go to www.whatismyip.com to see what your current IP is.

You could try manually releasing then renewing your IP possibly(?) View network connections, right click, Status, Support, Repair.. I believe that does it (if its windows xp).. dunno if it'll give you a unique IP # though.

When oprano used to show the posters IP publicly.... I often came up as same IP as people on same ISP in other cities even.... I think the board picks up cable ISPs transparent proxy's IP.

For your submit script GG, I am "fairly sure" you could code it to ask check the Forwarded-For IP .... ISPs like shaw internet would almost definitely have their cable proxy setup to correctly pass that info if your script asks for it.

here is some code that will determine the correct IP from any properly configured ISP proxy.

For anyone using a Submission script that logs webmaster IPs, using this code rather than simply relying on the REMOTE_ADDRESS variable to gather the IP will be a lot more effective.

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

function getIP() {

   $tmp = array();

   if  (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']) && strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'],',')) {

       $tmp +=  explode(',',$_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']);

   } elseif (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])) {

       $tmp[] = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];

   }

   $tmp[] = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

   return $tmp;

}

print_r(getIP());

?>

Check it what it outputs for your IP here:
http://xengio.com/XGOgetIP.php

(For LL owners that just glazed over thinking thats too technical for me.... it isnt as hard as it may look. If you can code html in notepad, you can likely incorporate that into almost any script all by yourself.)
