Today I'm starting over with a fresh install of Phpnuke. Which version should I do ... 7.2 or 7.3. I would have just stuck to 7.2 since Chatserv did have the patchs for 7.3 I have a choice.
I'm going to install the following advice, pro/con of choices would be nice (not sure if I'm using correct names on some programs):
PhpNuke (of course)
Raven's scripts (hackattempt, sentental, httpauth)
Anti-right click
A photo gallery where only I can upload pics (will try CPG again but scared to do it)
MS Anaysis (I like his reports )
OSC shopping cart
Kalendar
I need a good script to prevent download harvesting
I'd like to have a good chat room, any suggestions?
Has anyone cracked the merger of mailing list and the PhpBB board yet?  |

My personal favorite is 7.0, seriously. I don't need the points thingy. With Sentinel you no longer need my Hack Alert script. My 7.0 distro has Coppermine installed, but it is an older version. You will need to either delete it or upgrade it. Also be sure to install my HTTP Auth protection script at . For download harvesting, I just use a few of directives in .htaccess. This will guarantee that download requests come from one place only. Also, use the download/password script from
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.*)YOURDOMAIN\.([com|net]+)/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .*\.([mpg|mpeg|zip|tar|exe|avi|mov|gif|jpe?g]+)$ - [NC,F] |

I don't understand the points thingy myself. If you could list who is in what group that would make sense. It kinda reminds me of the ranking system in the forum, but you can't do special groups. I can see restriction on who sees what for blocks. But I'd rather do that a different way then points. I use the subscriptions, sections and content to do that. I really wish they would put in when you write a story you control who see it, no just restrict the whole module on who see it. Then you can have articles for everyone, for registered users and for subscribed users. |

I tried that with my cpanel Hotlink Protection, it was banning graphics for my own site even though it wasn't suppose to unless I checked the Allow direct requests, but by doing that as soon as someone figured out the direct URL then they could download at will from anywhere. |

Hmmm. It works 100% for me. I have my downloads at another site and it ensures that all d/l requests come from my site. Very strange indeed. Well, I'm off to father's day festivities - be back on later. |

It should be the first thing listed in your files and it's the root .htaccess  |

Ok I went with Raven's 7.0. Do I need to add Chat's patches?
I still need to add the security stuff, but I'll do that when I'm at home instead of work
Does anyone know of a good place to find RSS feeds?

Yes you do. The patches are only as recent as when that distro was last released. get Sentinel(tm) installed ASAP. |

Sorry, i might have been reuploading the patches when you tried to download it, it's always a pain when i decide to release a new version, i wait til Nuke bug & vulnerability reports stop coming in before i release these but as usual when i finally put them out new reports appear  |
