Is it exactly the same, what error is NS giving for banning you?

We are also going to need to know what version of nuke and NS you are running?

Also try clearing you cache and cookies.

So are you using the latest version of RavenNuke?

What are you doing when this occurs?

Posted: Sun Jun 17, 2007 2:34 pm

when i login as an admin and i go to administer anything i get banned its as simple as that

Posted: Sun Jun 17, 2007 2:41 pm

OK and you have cleared your cookies and cache, because this usually fixes this problem?

Posted: Sun Jun 17, 2007 2:58 pm

OK i have cleared my cookies and cache and i have tryed to access it using linux and windows using ie,opra and firefox it just dont work mate.

i get banned all the time also another admin has tryed the same and he got banned this is a sentinal problem cookies and cache are client side and you dont have any until you visit a site so how could i have a problem with them if they dont exsist this is a script problem maybe a bad install but seaming as i have installed loads of CMS and this one is the only one that is fooking up please could you give me some more help i am far from tech savy. so please indulge me in your wisdom

Likewise many people have installed RN without a problem, so it is unlikely to be a script problem. Wink

You will have had to access the site to install it and then subsequentially login and access the admin area.

We are going to need to know a but more about your setup.

Is this a local installation, or on a webserver?
MySQL and PHP versions?
Linuix, or windows?

I am assuming this is a new installation of the latest RN?

ok here we go its php5 mysql5.0.27 its a linux server running apache 2 it is a shared host between the admins we have over 60years of experience we have used sentinal on at least 5 different cms`s please could you point me to a how to setup or some one who can help us if you cant

Posted: Sun Jun 17, 2007 3:29 pm

and yea its a remote host because if it is local or remote it is still a webserver also its the latest it still has all the stickers on it and no dust its so fresh it is like the virgin mary

OK it sounds like you understood what I was asking. Wink

At this moment in time I'm thinking it is likely to be something that has gone awry during installation.

binary, love the graphics, but please edit your post and remove the reference to the female body parts. As for your issue, pm me directly, I will be happy to get in there and figure out what is wrong. It sounds like you might want to update your ip2c, thats ip to country, something that comes with sentinel and I remember is used to cause such issues.

Pm me on this site, yahoo, msn, aol, ICQ, whatever you wish.

I agree - it sounds like IP2C wasn't installed completely. Were there any errors or omissions during installation?

You can also turn off this feature (invalid IP address checks) with a setting in config.php or rnconfig.php (I can't remember which off the top of my head, but a search in these forums should find it pretty easily). This feature is used to predict attacks, not necessary when an attack occurs. It wasn't a problem, really, until ICAAN started release IP ranges that were formerly reserved.

sorry for the irrate posting but i was getting nowhere fast and it was getting late plus i had a few beers

i think i know the config var you are on about i`ll have a play with that also look at the ip2c at least now i have a smaller area to play with thanks all

ps i`m not normally that much of an arse on forums Smile

We haven't implemented a policy against posting while intoxicated - but that might be a good idea... Smile
