IP ADD Query
Posted: Fri Jan 16, 2004 4:04 am
Hi, Im new to this site...my first post. Im an admin for a php internet forum and recently been made aware of the following incident:
A user(guest) has posted on one of the rooms. This is no registered member and it appears to have been somebody who uses BT Broadband dial up. I posted as a guest a few times(couldnt be bothered to sign in) and when matching the IP addresses, they were identical. It also said that I made 85 posts as that user with that particular IP address. I use BT Broadband as well, however I didnt know that it was possible for the same IP address to be issued twice? Please advise?
Please excuse if this is a bimbo question, Im very new to PHP. Im more fluent with asp, xml and .net
