bill, you still a "nub"

The current minilogin allows multiple accounts. Each different account is tied to an IP in the miniloginaccounts.ini file you have to make. If they gave out the minilogin source, they'd get a lot of shit from everywhere since it has source to stuff they can't give out.

If you want the miniloginaccounts.ini file I zipped it up with the minilogin:

Default another thought (yeah they come few and far between)

so if we cant use minilogin are we allowed to write a new login server with what we know about the packets/protocol?

bill = so n00b

Hmmm, and how about using Login server from EthernalQuest instead of writing a new one?

hmm, never thought about that.

But I know they use ruby to code their emulator, so I doubt it will work. You won't be getting certain source from them either because the login/user encryption is a thing they have to keep secret or people would be able to fuck with peoples info on eqlive.

And you know what kind of strange people that come to the emulators do shit like that.

hmmm afaik the encryption is taken directly from SOA server
Code:
# if version is missing - server will try to obtain
# latest client version from Verant's login server
# version=

# it will be used when version is not set to obtain laters client version
# if you set version above, login server will never get current version
# you must be careful with that as your client will not work if versions doesn't not match

eqLoginServer=eqlogin1.989studios.com
eqLoginPort=15900
and I don't know if any recompiling is needed, you can try just to set up everything by config

from readme:
Code:
	1. How to run Login / World or Zone server separately ?
	
	To run Login server you will Common & Login directories from EqDb
	Replace emuconfig.dat by Config/emuconfig_L.dat. Run StartEMU.bat

	To run World server you will Common & World directories from EqDb
	Replace emuconfig.dat by Config/emuconfig_W.dat.
	Modify World/config file to set world name for each world server.
	Run StartEMU.bat.

	** You can't run 2 world servers on the same IP address. (it is possible to have
	more then one IP address on the same computer/ethernet card if you are
	running Win2000 or WinXP)

	To run Zone server you need Common & Zone directories from EqDb
	Replace emuconfig.dat by Config/emuconfig_Z.dat
	Modify Zone/config file to point it to correct world server.
	Run StartEMU.bat.

	Other configurations available:
		emuconfig_LW.dat  - Login & World server together
		emuconfig_WZ.dat  - World & Zone server together
		emuconfig_LWZ.dat - All 3 servers together (default configuration)

	If you are running more then one Login / World or Zone server instances on the same
	computer, make sure that you have separate copy of EqDb for every one

wth.. thats not the encryption..

the encryption is the thing that if someone gives out and someone uses it to get credit card info from the 180,000+ credit cards from eqlive the person who handed it out gets sue'd for a couple million dollars and VI just gets more money.

AGX started the emulation scene with the encryption.. showEQ has used it, and VI has changed it 3 times. Recently with PoP which redid all the encryption.

You won't find the encryption files any time soon.

ehh and I've thought that encryption is dependant of current version of the client...

I'm used to quite diffrent client/server apps.
I've been working on POL servers for Ultima Online, I've just started playing with EQ and looking for emu. Found 2 this one(EQEmu) and EthernalQuest, as for now I've launched both but I can't connect to eqemu (I can't create account on eqemu.net login server, and even if I could I'd like to have my own login server for ppl wanting to play on my shard)

Etherial's encryption is handled by eq_coder.dll which they dont give source for. Kinda what I was thinking about for eqemu, as long as there was a limited interface for what you can decode.
