Hi there people

 

I am in some bit of a situtation..

 

I need to be able to create a URL that redirects to an ip, however i need the url to have username and password that will transfer to the ip.

 

Basically i want to give out the url to each user and for them to type there username/password at the end

 

example

http://url.goeshere.co.uk/username/password

 

USER1 - http://url.goeshere.co.uk/user1/pass1

USER2 - http://url.goeshere.co.uk/user2/pass2

 

Both urls will then redirect to my ip and will need to be able to send the username and password also

 

example

http://my_ip:port/get.php?username=username&password=password&type=m3u&output=ts

USER1 redirects to http://my_ip:port/get.php?username=user1&password=pass1&type=m3u&output=ts

USER2 redirects to http://my_ip:port/get.php?username=user2&password=pass2&type=m3u&output=ts

It's bad practice to send a password over a url. Though I don't know what you're after, but why not have them login at the redirect?

Re-think your approach.  Create a login form with a submit button.  Let the login script process the uid and pswd and THEN send them to the url.  If that url needs some id material, use a a SESSION var for the username (BUT NOT THE PASSWORD!)  or pass that in the url still.

 

The password s/b passed via a POST method (hence the form), not a GET.  And it should never be passed again once the user has been authenticated.

No idea what your trying to accomplish here, but it sounds like a bad idea. Generating a random code would be better than username and password.
