Re^4: Detect Open Proxies

Hello

well , i'm not testing for open ports , it's just a test for open proxies .

plus as i told you it's for chat needs , when the chat works in server side with out client, you can't give out a good ban ...

i could ban using REMOTE_ADDR , HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR ...

but if some one has the ability to change his proxy and login again , there will be no benefit from banning him

if you have a good way to do this without searching for open proxies .... i will be so helpfull for me if you add it over here

There are hundreds of open proxies. You'll never be able to block them all. Perhaps you should rethink your authentication strategies. -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker Be sure to read my standard disclaimer if this is a reply.	[reply]

therefore i'm not going to block them , i'm thinking to check on login if the user is using open proxy , he'll not be able to login , if not then he's welcome whatever the authentication was , it will stay the same ... as i think blocking users with open proxies is the best way	[reply]
