: I know how to see them in emails and archive but if the post themselves display the IP it tends to deter some people from making bad posts. Any ideas?
Thanks.

1. Open the wwwboard.cgi file
2. Scroll down to the New File Subroutine
3. Look for a line like: print NEWFILE qq|Posted by|;
4. Replace it with: print NEWFILE qq|Posted by $ENV{'REMOTE_HOST'} |;
5. Save and upload in ascii/text format.
