Hi...i installed the hack attemp script....when i go to test it in my browser, this message cames out:

Unable to query WhoIs information for xx.xx.xxx.xx ( my IP)

Is this right?

Its the right error message for not returning any results.
Try it from an online proxy once to verify its not just an issue with your IP being outside of arins searchability.

anfer can you edit your post so the title is something like "Unable to query WhoIs information for"
rather than "Is this right?"

that way if people have the same problem they are more likely to be able to find/identify a post that might be relevent. Smile

Try modifying your script to use http://www.samspade.org/t/lookat?a=1.1.1.1 . In other words, change these lines

Code:

"http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput=".$ipToSearch

to

Code:

"http://www.samspade.org/t/lookat?a=".$ipToSearch

This is just to verify that you can get whois information. The script is not made to work with Sam Spade for extracting data.

Type this in your url and substitute your own IP
http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput=1.1.1.1

Do you get information in your browser?

Then type this
http://www.samspade.org/t/lookat?a=1.1.1.1

Do you get information in your browser?

Since I know the mail function works, we need to determine what the problem is. Please read this post http://www.ravenphpscripts.com/posts538-highlightmail.html and try the mail test functions there.
