What would be the most effective way to create blocking of users by ip using mysql. In such as way that the "blocking system" allows for masks such as 24.127.89.* 24.*.*.* etc... So far the what I've come up with is either breaking the ip into 4 INTs and then running an SQL query to check if that ip is found in "Blocked Users" table. Replies would be appriciated Prottoss
