More Security

May 24th, 2007 | Uniform Server

We all know that the Perl side of the Admin Panel comes with a little nice security feature, it checks to make sure that the pages are being requested from localhost or the ip 127.0.0.1, and after a while, i was working on a new project for the server (another surprise) and two seconds into working on that i decided to make one of those security feature for the PHP side of the Admin Panel. At first i wasn’t so sure if everything would work out, but upon my first try it was working perfect and with that i decided to add a little code snippet in the config.inc.php file to call it, so now, if $unisecure is set to 1, then the extra security feature will be added on top of every other security measure we already have in place, about 3 i think so far, but there is nothing called too much security as we know it!

Some other new features are also added to the Admin Panel to make life easier. Catch them when you get 3.4-Sluger.
