Automatically Logging In As Someone Else

Hi guys,

Just a quick one.

Since I changed over to iPrimus I've noticed that when I load up SAU forums I get logged in as someone else automatically.

Just then (within 5 mintutes) I was logged in as 2 different people and then finally myself.

I'd say that we're all on iPrimus, can something be done about this at all??? I know it's something about the our IP addresses and the database thinking we're someone else.

The only reason it concerns me is cause I've been PM'd by people buying stuff off me, and they have given me their addresses, and I don't want their addresses to be made semi public (if you know what I mean).

Thanks guys, your doing a great job :uh-huh: :uh-huh:

J

Yepp, spot on :confused: :confused:

I could be right of the mark here, but I think the database looks at the first 3 sets of numbers in the IP address (eg. 203.198.54....) by default to figure out who the person is.

But I'm not sure if it's possible to make it look at the full IP address (eg 203.198.54.23).

happened to me too, but its only on the front page, i really dont think that you could access anyone elses pm's. Once your logged on it would use your cookies, so without the other guys password i doubt you could see their settings, pm's, and that they could see yours.

Make sense? didnt think so

BTW, ip address are dynamic, which means you never have the same one consecutively, you are allocated a new one everytime you log on, so it would have to be the first couple of numbers.

iprimus is acting weird latley,

I could be way off base too though LOL:lol:

Jay.

Spoke to tech support about an unrelated problem just now, and i asked him about this thing with logging on under someone elses name. The same thing was happening with yahoo games for me.

What it looks like is if you are using a proxy server, as i just started to, anypages any iprimus user looks at is stored on iprimus's server in their cache. If someone goe and looks at the same page, it loads off their cache instead of off SAU server.

They were going to have a look at it anyway, if it keeps happening just set your browser to connect direct to the internet, instead of through the iprimus proxy server.

Now another problem has popped up, has to do with the web address that the smily icons come from, freaking the loading of SAU right up.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Have a look at that (shitty) pic I posted. You can see AN -4 braided line coming to a -4 to 1/8 BSPT adapter, into a 1/8 BSPT T piece. The Haltech pressure sender is screwed into the long arm of the sender and factory sender (pre your pic) into the T side. You can also see the cable tie holding the whole contraption in place. Is it better than mounting the sender direct to your engine fitting......yes because it removes that vibration as the engine revs out 50 times every lap and that factory sender is pretty big. Is it necessary for you......well I've got no idea, I just don't like something important failing twice so over-engineer it to the moon!

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
