Email to admin in the next update ???

Hi !!!!

You did a great job with your tool Laughing

Now i can better sleep at night than before Laughing

So i want to ask u to include an option to email the admin when a attack was blocked by the system. Also which is able to be turned on and off.
Because it could be very helpfull, when u can forward this email later via SMS to your cellphone.

thanx

Ooops

I dindn see it till now u said Rolling Eyes

But, it would be cool to specify a other email to, not only the system admin email from nuke. Because my email2sms address is different to the admin address.

thanx

We can add a second email address value. 1.1.0 uses a newer config table that will make additions much easier in the furture versions :0

So how do I add an email to have Sentinel email me? (or a second or third)?

And.....What should I be seeing on the following page?

-- http://www.mydomain.com/admin.php?op=ABMain (just the links to the Sentinel Config and IP options?)

Mine is blank except for the two columns of links (6 links total) at the top, is that the way it should be?

And HTACCESS path.....not exactly sure how mine should be if I have my stuff set as mydomain.com/

For right now, try this. On or about line 387 you should see this code

Code:

  $adminmail = $nuke_config['adminmail'];

Add this line after it, substituting another email address. I haven't tested it so it may still need tweaking Smile

.

Code:

$adminmail .= ",NEXT_MAIL_ADDRESS";

Yes

Try .htaccess

Code:

$adminmail .= ",NEXT_MAIL_ADDRESS";

I have added that (it was line 387 for me ?)....but should the period be removed from before the "=" sign???

And if that doesn't work, then would I just be able to do the following:

Code:

$adminmail = "myemail@mydomain.com";

And leave it at that? What about:

Code:

$adminmail = "myemail@mydomain.com,myemail2@mydomain.com";

?

Yes

Thank you.

You are correct on the line number Laughing

I was also looking at where it was actually called (I have edited my original post). And yes, the .= is a concatanation operator. That way you don't actually modify the original but add to it. Any of the methods you state will work though (or should).

Thank you.

Now I am just looking for a smaller "Sentinel Protected" graphic to use on my website that I can use in a side block that's not a banner size......so if you or Bob come up with one, please let us know! Thanks! Wink

There are 3 sizes in the images file supplied with Sentinel(tm). Do none of them work for you?

Just wanted to let you know that it worked.....just got an email confirmation of a blocked IP.....

Code:

$adminmail .= ",NEXT_MAIL_ADDRESS";

Worked like a charm..... Wink

Hi !!!!
I also tried to add a second email, but it doesn’t work.
like this:

Code:

$adminmail .= ",NEXT_MAIL_ADDRESS";

So i tried many different things, an now i know the reason why not. The function Email IP lookup was active so i turned it off and now it works Laughing
