nuapi.php - question about zzzsys_user_id != 'globeadmin'

Unread post by mark.reynolds »

In the nuapi.php file, in the function nuLogin($u, $p)
there is this sql query immediately after the check for the globeadmin user being logged in.

$s = "SELECT * FROM zzzsys_user WHERE (sus_login_name = ?
AND sus_login_password = md5(CONCAT(?, ?)))
AND zzzsys_user_id != 'globeadmin' ";

I pretty much understand it all, except for AND zzzsys_user_id != 'globeadmin'
since zzzsys_user_id seems to be an md5 hash, looking at the data in my tables.

It doesn't seem to matter though, since zzzsys_user_id can never be 'globeadmin'
in that case.

Wondering if this is a leftover bit of sql from an earlier version?
Or am I missing something?

thanks

Mark,

It is meant to stop general users using globeadmin as a user name.
