Allow block with dynamic IP

Post by CrazyCat »

Another trouble / question :)

The staff of a channel are in the same place, with same ip. But their IP is dynamic, so I can't add an allow block to improve their maxperip.
They use a service like no-ip, but when connecting on my server, I see their real IP (or hostname).

I don't think that using the no-ip hostname could help me, have you any idea ?

the allow block will work for this. It allows wildcards and IIRC multiple hosts to be specified. Click http://www.unrealircd.com/files/docs/un ... allowblock and read about the allow block. You also don't need to use max-per-ip as it's an optional setting and then use services to control session.

Allow blocks are read from the bottom up so add your more restrictive blocks at the bottom with your lease restrictive at the top. Users will be bound to the rules specified in the *FIRST* allow block they match.
