---- Reported by drdrulm@yahoo.com 2009-09-03 17:48:46 ---- The different_IP auth is too strict for many services This is the message given to the patron (different_IP) While the staff side sessions should always keep fixed IP. This is not going to the true for the patron side for a large number of services. The OPAC needs to be opened up to allow these services, but the staff side should still require the IP to stay the same. The services denying patron login include but are not limited to the following: * AOL (while they can turn off the proxy, and probably should, few know how to do this) * People still using google web accelerator (now defunct) * Other proxy based web accelerators * Anon proxies. * Some office networks maintain filter proxies which can cause logout * Home filtering software which use proxies. There are quite a few. * Other non-AOL web proxies * Some squid setups, etc. * Many cell phone carries. Iphone/Blackberry users employ the web far more than casual cell-phone web users. --- Bug imported by chris@bigballofwax.co.nz 2010-05-21 01:12 UTC --- This bug was previously known as _bug_ 3578 at http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3578 Unknown operating system Windows 2000.
