Sorry. I didn't say that it doesn't, only that I've not yet looked further into it to determine what it can/can't do. > Like I said > before look into JKFlow and CUFlow, the scoreboard functions in those modules > give you precisely this information. yep.. Will definitely do that. (though ip-audit does seem nice too. Web Front-end as well. But again, will need to look further into it) Thanks and sorry if I sounded like JKFlow/CUFlow doesn't do that.
