PHP - Moved: Site Auditing Scripts

well I was wanting to make scripts to put on my site and then only let a few people use the site by the ip address, what would be the best way to allow only certain people to use the script on the site, based on the ip?

Thanks

I had to move hosters recently and I have a couple of scripts run using CRON to backup my MySql database and manage the number of backups that I keep.  I can ask the hosters to deprecate the version of PHO backwards but I don't want to lose the opportunity of features that may be available in the new version.  The main script essentially performs a MySqlDump to a specified directory and then emails me to tell me that it completed successfully.  The second script just deletes any files in the backup folder more than x days old.

I know mysqldump is a valid call so I should need to use anything other than that but I'm lost when it comes to seeing what is wrong with my scripts.

backup.php

<?
$datestamp = date("Y-m-d");      // Current date to append to filename of backup file in format of YYYY-MM-DD
                                 // run the command php -q /home/mysite/public_html/scripts/ffbackup.php

/* CONFIGURE THE FOLLOWING SEVEN VARIABLES TO MATCH YOUR SETUP */
//    require($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/config/db_config.php");
    require("/home/mysite/config/db_config.php");
    $connection = mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_password);
    mysql_select_db($db_name, $connection);

//$dbuser = $db_user, $conection ;            // Database username
//$dbpwd = ($db_password, $conection);            // Database password
//$dbname = ($db_name, connection);            // Database name. Use --all-databases if you have more than one
$backdir ="/home/mysite/forumbackup/";
$filename= "backup-$datestamp.sql.gz";   // The name (and optionally path) of the dump file
$to = "my-email@address.com";      // Email address to send dump file to
$from = "admin@mysite.com";      // Email address message will show as coming from.
$subject = "Mysite MySQL backup file-$datestamp";      // Subject of email

$command = "mysqldump -u $db_user --password=$db_password $db_name | gzip > $filename";
$result = passthru($command);
$newfile = $filename;

copy ($filename, $backdir.$newfile);

$message = "Compressed database backup file $filename copied to backup directory.";
$headers = "From: $from\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

unlink($filename);   //delete the backup file from the server
?>

 

and delold.php

<?php
$path = "/home/mysite/forumbackup/";

//echo "script is running";
//echo "the path is $path ";

      if (is_dir("$path") )
        {
           $handle=opendir($path);
           while (false!==($file = readdir($handle))) {
               if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { 
                   $Diff = (time() - filectime("$path/$file"))/60/60/24;
                   if ($Diff > 10) unlink("$path/$file");

               }
           }
           closedir($handle);
   }
?>
