Important Security Notice

[khuong]

Ok guys this is probally one of the first posts that regards EQEMu Security. But there may be future exploits and we are trying to protect you...

If you are using EQEMu 4.3+ (4.3 and up) and you have not changed your ZSPassword please do that now..

Here's how..

1. Open mysql.exe (select database you use for eq)
2. type;

UPDATE variables SET value='NEW PASSWORD' WHERE varname='ZSPassword';

This updates your Zone Server Password to a new password, instead of the default one we throw into it, should protect you from DB corruption, other people's zones connecting to yours.. etc etc.. remember to change this if you install a new DB.sql...

Thanx, I was meaning to ask about that. I've recently had somebody corrupt a large portion of my database.
Also, could you clarify the values of loglevel. It would have saved me hours trying to crack down on trouble makers, if I had the info and not had to figure it out first

Look in your top lvl folder of the emu, I believe I added a text file that explained it. If its not there I'll post what it here.
