As part of a larger project for a client, I’m developing a generic login/user management system that you can use to password protect any PHP page on your site. It handles everything from registration to lost passwords to basic account management. It’s beautifully simple and powerful at the same time, and will allow you to create whatever content you want and let the login system manage access to it. Screenshots coming soon with the release shortly afterward. Then it’s on to the long-awaited Simple Mailing List 2…

Hi, will the login system be coded in MySQL, MySQLi or PDO ?

For maximum compatibility it will be coded in PHP (4+) and MySQL.

Will there be a autoban feature for IPs, if the site is being bruteforce-hacked???
Same for GeLS?

GeLS is the same of our simple login system (changed to avoid any confusion between Simple Mailing List). And to answer your question, I’m not sure an autoban feature would be effective since proxy servers are widely available to get around IP bans, and legitimate users could end up being locked out unnecessarily. I think a more effective tool would be something that analyzes your log files for repeated failed attempts. Thanks.
