IP WHOIS

The old behavior (perhaps it was MODS) of the IP WHOIS URL field would let me enter whatever I wanted. It appears that isn't allowed now, and is restricted. We have a remote desktop program that we could access just by clicking the IP address. The URL used was vnc://{IP}~50. What can I modify to let me do this...and can the old behavior be added into new versions?

I had to make the switch to 3.22, since MODS wasn't going to keep up with security updates on the 2.x version.

The old behavior will not be restored as it could lead to potential security issues.

However, you should be able to add vnc as an approved scheme like this:

1. get Notepad++ (or use some other editor that can handle UTF-8 without BOM, do NOT use Microsoft Notepad)
2. open /inc/common.inc.php in Notepad++
3. find

Code: Select all

if ($scheme == 'https' || $scheme == 'http')
and change it to

Code: Select all

if ($scheme == 'https' || $scheme == 'http' || $scheme == 'vnc')
4. save, upload and test
