    Posted: 20 May 2010 at 6:06pm
Hi,
 
Recently upgraded to 9.68 because the IP address blocking didnt seem to be working in the earlier version we were using.
 
The IP blocking list in Conrol Panel now has multiple instances of some IPs because the same addresses were repeatedly added to the list as the earlier blocking attempts failed. The fact that the address is not sorted means it is a bit of a chore to clean up.
 
Could you advise please
Where is the block list stored?
Is there any easy way to clean up the duplicates?
 
If I could even get the list into numeric order it would simplify the task.

The IP Addresses are stored in the tblBanList table in the database.

The IP Banning feature has had an overhaul for version 10 and will include IP's listed in order as well as being able to add a reason why the IP was banned.

Thanks for the response.
 
IP blocking is working, so its not worth investing much time in cleaning up the lists. I will try to wait patiently for V10.
