CCBill .htaccess nightmare

I decided to reconcile my password files on some sites.

Knowing how things work I assumed there would be some bogus users in there, and in fact I found about 10.

Not bad, for a year, but more than I thought I would find.

It's not really CCBill's fault in my view (shit happens) but they should provide a tool to help reconcile the file - I ended up spending hours extracting users from CCBill reports, loading into mysql, and joining on .htaccess.

Way too much work, but I'm going to do it occasionally from now on.

If you have a paysite there is a good chance you have some expired users also with lifetime free access; you might want to take a look.
