LOGIN BLOCKER SYSTEM in PHP
What is the point of blocking access to a website using an IP or cookies for a specific amount of time?
Why block using IP?
Why block using cookies?

Why not block per session?; as I don't know enough about PHP as well as I know ASP.

I don't know how to create a session based LOGIN BLOCKER SYSTEM in PHP(yet).

Don't get me wrong I have created bunch of websites in PHP and have asked a few questions to help me with them but I just don't unserstand.

Blocking by cookies is pretty pointless, just clear your cookies and you are unblocked...

RE: LOGIN BLOCKER SYSTEM in PHP
Blocking by IP also makes no sense then; you have to wait 30 minutes or whatever time you as the coder/owner decides.
But also it blocks all users from same IP address; problem if it's on the same network.

I wouldn't actually know the best option to use.
Maybe captcha is better to utilize but still does not stop cackers from trying to get in.

Cheers

right. general chat , but still there has to be a definite purpose to the topic in discussion ,no? there are several different methods of going about blocking access to site based on different scenarios. So some pointer would be help as to what are you trying to achieve and on what level are you trying to block access. i can only post code if i know what i am posting it for

RE: LOGIN BLOCKER SYSTEM in PHP
Ok I looked at an IP blocking system but it only blocks the IP which means that if there are other users on the same network they can't get in.

So how would you propose the blocking to your site if a user logs in more than 3 or 5 times?

Time limit?
Or
Your proposal...

RE: LOGIN BLOCKER SYSTEM in PHP
ok if i were to suggest i solution , i would go about doing it like this...

in the users table , i will have a field for instance "tempblock".by default this field is set to 0.. When user logs in for the third time , i set something like this in the that field for that user like mktime()+3600 .When login in all users check user, password,tempblock .. if tempblock is 0 or mktime in the field is greater than current mktime let him go ahead and set the tempblock field again to zero. otherwise tell him to wait for the remaining time indicated by the field data.
