mini login question

[myrrddyn25]

ok ive been looking at the code in the server solution relating to logins it appears ip based authentication is done in the server code itself and not the mini login code therefore you could concievably change the login method of mini login by editing the server code itself relating to the login functions correct?

[RangerDown]

The authentication by IP is a function of minilogin's code. This login server does a hand-off to the world but it is the login server that tells the world what account the worldserver should be expecting.

The "world" executable is incapable of doing game-client username and password validation on its own. If you're seeing password validation, you're probably looking at the telnet or HTTP interface portion of the code where GM's can use these to manage the server.
