It's a very bad idea to check only if they have the same IP. I would suggest that you compare at least their share size, too. Some users have the same IP as other users if they're behind the same proxy/router/firewall/etc... That doesn't mean they're the same person as the other user, and definitely doesn't mean they're on the same computer either.
Auto-redirects are not the best idea either, as it depends on the "good will" of the client. NMDC clients automatically follow redirects... the legit standard DC++ has an option to not automatically follow them... JavaDC plain ignores redirection commands. So there's a whole spectrum of possibilities for what will really happen if you try to redirect a client.
I'd suggest adding an OP command to your main script, that allows them to scan the IPs "on demand" and evaluate what should be done case by case. A fully automated solution is very likely to kick a lot of innocents users out of your hub.
