Just installed Invision Power Board yesterday.
I try to make forum so only ppl who canr gister there or access can be ppl from same network as me e.g. IP range : 123.123.123.1 - 123.123.123.255
I want to all other ips to have bann and only this range could access my forum.
How can i do it using invision board?
I manadge to find there option to ban IP's but i want make it vice versa so i could bann all ip's and allow only this range.

I know this may be easy to do but i dont know non PHP non MySQL so any help will be usefull.

This is a crude way to do this, but it works and it is all the time I have right now.

PHP Code:

<?php

$CheckIP = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"];



$ValidateIP = substr($CheckIP,0,11);



if ($ValidateIP != '123.123.123') { die ("You are not authorized to view this page!"); }



?>

The number 11 above represents the part of the string you want to use. If you are not using 3 numbers per octet this number will need to change accordingly.

If this is not good enough for you I will cook something else up. I just do not have the time right now.
