hello, i'm new installing sentinel and i'm having some problems and i need you help please....
i have PhpNuke 7.6.31, i'm having problem editing the admin.php file
it says:

Code:




#-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------ 


# 


$checkurl = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; 


if((stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'AddAuthor')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'VXBkYXRlQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'QWRkQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'UpdateAuthor')) || (preg_match("/\?admin/", "$checkurl")) || (preg_match("/\&admin/", "$checkurl"))) { 


die("Illegal Operation"); 


} 





# 


#-----[ COMMENT OUT ]------------------------------------------ 


# 


//$checkurl = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; 


//if((stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'AddAuthor')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'VXBkYXRlQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'QWRkQXV0aG9y')) || (stripos_clone($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"],'UpdateAuthor')) || (preg_match("/\?admin/", "$checkurl")) || (preg_match("/\&admin/", "$checkurl"))) { 


//die("Illegal Operation"); 


//}

and all i find is:

Code:




$checkurl = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; 


if((stripos_clone($checkurl,'AddAuthor')) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl,'VXBkYXRlQXV0aG9y')) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl,'QWRkQXV0aG9y')) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl,'UpdateAuthor')) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl, "?admin")) OR (stripos_clone($checkurl, "&admin"))) { 


  die("Illegal Operation"); 


}

is this the code i have ro replace or what do i have to do? any help will be appreciated.

Thanks/ ScyberSpace

Yes, you should be able to comment that out and it should work. The two sections of code do the same thing, pretty much, and the edits_for_corefiles does indicate that there can be differences depending on versions.
