IPLogin not working on some sites

Chris Elliott's Avatar Chris Elliott
Hi Peter

J3.10.2 site with IPLogin 5.0.0

On one or two of the sites I support where I use IPLogin, even after checking the IP is correct and that I am not mistyping the secret and that only "Admin" is selected, when I attempt to connect with URL/administrator?secret, I am always returned to the admin login screen.

I've looked to see if there are any unusual plug-ins and nothing comes to mind immediately which might be causing this problem.

I can certainly provide you with some confidential login information if it is needed to help in diagnosis but, for the time being, are there any obvious things that you would be looking for that I can do to save you some time?

Best wishes
Chris

Can you give me (super) admin and (s)ftp access so I can take a look?
You can use the 'Confidential information' button in the forum editor to hide sensitive information.

I can see the issue happening.
However, I cannot log in to the ftp. It says: "Login authentication failed"

By the way this happens on a couple of other sites... I'll let you dig this one first though.

Thank you Peter, that fixed it.

Is that prefix ::ffff: anything to do with IPv6 settings?

Short answer:
It is (in some cases) prepended to an IPV4 address mapped through a IPV6-compliant system.
