ip_match doesn't seem to work

[mwhiting]

This is something of a ressurection of a question from this past month.

I am using Session Id's and have started trying to use -ip_match so that you can't cut and paste an url with the session id embedded in it from one computer to the next. But since I have added -ip_match I don't get any different results when accessing the same script from computers with different IP's. I modified my Use statement to be:

use CGI::Session qw/-ip-match/;

instead of my usual use cgi::Session; line. I also tried adding

$session::IP_MATCH = 1;

to the mix, after the creation of the session object, and still I see no difference in the results on browsers with different ip's. The different computers still access the session info just fine and pass the authentication using info in the session variable.

What am I missing here in the use of -ip_match ? Your help would be greatly appreciated!   :)

use CGI::Session qw/-ip-match/;

Change the 2nd dash to an underscore:

use CGI::Session qw/-ip_match/;

copy/paste is your friend :) whether you're doing it from the docs or from the nodes

OK - my silly mistake! I usually cut and paste. :) Thanks for pointing that out, nothing like another pair of eyes to fix a problem!
