I tried to log into the ACP, and I got

Your current IP address does not match the one in our records



I have gotten this error before, and I know that it is a quick edit in admin.php. Unfortunately, IPB 2.2 Beta is encoded, so I am not able to edit that file. Is there any other way to get back into my ACP?

I have over 20 other people testing, so it's not easy to just "start over." They all have ACP access, if it makes a difference. Is the only way to fix it to make a new account?

Ya, this needs to be corrected, as people it becomes a real PIA for newbees on dynamic ip , whose ip address changes with each browser refresh.



IP addresses change on each connection, not on each page load.

AOL, shared IPs, also users seem to jump IPs rather randomly.


Really, I'd be asking what someone with enough intelligence to be an Admin of a board they set up (a beta one at that) would be using AOL... or something similar.
