    Several users on same IP

    Is there a way for me to search the memberslist for users registering with more than one username? We have a very strict policy in our terms, but it's a huge job if we must go through each new registration to check for double entries.

    Is there a way to prune "double users", maybe with options to delete/ban/suspend etc?

    I wouldn't use IP address as the sole determination that a user has multiple accounts. AOL funnels all 40 million of their customers through several dozen IP addresses. If several people access your site from the same worksite or home network, they would also have the same IP address.

    However, you can find out a User's IP address from within the Admin CP and get a list of all users who use a particular IP address from there as well.

    But there is no way to find users with same IP through an automated process? I have to check each individual user for matching IP's?
