edit[96 - wizicom.txt]ALLOW PERMBAN SHOWBAN
Syntax: allow <sitemask>

        permban
        showban <#>

PERMBAN <sitemask> prohibits players from that site from logging in.  There 
are various types of banning: all, email, newbie, permit.  All  will not 
allow anyone from that sitemask to log on.  Email will allow certain allowed 
emails to create new characters (see help BANEDIT for more info).  Newbie 
will ban all newbie creation from the site.  Permit will allow certain 
characters with a permit flag set to log on from the site.  Letgained 
players automatically have the permit flag, but non-letgained characters 
will have to have it manually entered into their pfile.  See help SITEMASK 
and help BAN-EXAMPLE for more information regarding setting up the permban.

PERMBAN with no arguments lists all of the banned sites.  Each ban will have 
a unique index numer next to it.  Use this number for showban and banedit.

ALLOW <sitemask> removes a site from the ban list, but only if the level of 
the ban is not above the level of the remover.

SHOWBAN will display the details of the ban without going into the edit 
mode.

BANEDIT allows you to edit the details about the ban.

[command:immortal]edit[96 - immhelp.txt]CHECKBAN BAN-EMAIL-EXAMPLE EMAIL-VERIFICATION
Syntax: checkban <ip/host address of player as shown in sockets/laston>

The checkban command is used to show you which if any of the ban matching 
rules will match for a particular host.

For example if you had a ban forcing email verification for all players 
coming from aol.com.  If you typed checkban AC9HCFA4.ipt.aol.com you would 
expect to see something like the following:

-===========================================================================--

==- CHECK BAN ON: 'AC9HCFA4.ipt.aol.com'
- Newbies: allowed
- Permit/Letgained check: allowed
- Email check: denied
Ban #1
-========================== BANEDIT SHOW ==========================-
Sitemask:    '*aol.com
*msn.com
*uunet.com
'
IntendedPeople: Email Verification System
Enabled: True
Permanent: True
Type: email
ban created on: Sat May 25 12:05:00 2002
by: Kalahn
Reason: To require email verification for users from particular ISPs.
Custom disconnect message: none
Expire date: none
always_allowed_email_masks: 
exception1@hotmail.com
goodplayer@hotmail.com
anothergoodplayer@hotmail.com
friend@yahoomail.com
allowed_email_masks: 
*@aol.com
*@msn.com
*@uunet.com
disallowed_email_masks: 
badperson@aol.com
idiot@msn.com
note: disallowed_email_masks have a higher priority than allowed masks, if 
a particular email addy matches the disallowed email mask, it will be denied 
even if it matches the allowed mask also.  The only exception to this is if 
the email address is on the always_allowed_email_masks list for this ban... 
note the always allowed only applies to this particular ban... if the host 
and email match a disallowed on another ban, it will be declined.

disallowed_email_masks_message: 
Access to this site has been denied!  Please contact the MUD Administration 
for inquiries on why access is denied.
- All: allowed
