Re: Computer Authorization

Can I get the any of this information through php or do I need adjust the settings on the server. Doing it through php is preferable... I was also thinking of having an application installed on the client to gather information and send it to my php script. However, I have little idea where to start with that... Thanks again, Chris

A login does not work since we only want people to log in from certain computers. IP numbers dont work since they are dynamic. Cookies work temporarily, but are often deleted and are not the most secure route. Any suggestions for accomplishing this? Thanks for any help, Chris _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?
