anyway, its always nice to have an alternative like yours, tho you should add to your post that this requires a full apache/php/mysql install on the linux box, and will not work if its not done. Rookies will ask you soon how they can use your scripts if you don't precise this :!: |
Well I've not enabled connections to the MySQL DB on my server from anyplace other than localhost. Primarily for added security. But I suppose that one could do that.
Really, that wouldnt help me much anyway. I dont use windows on my development machine. I run around in game on my client machine looking for problems, and update zones, spawns, loot, etc on my linux laptop. So it's easier for me if I have a simple PHP script on the server itself to do some of the more complicated things, like loot tables/ drop tables, etc...
As far as the requirements go, thanks for pointing that out. Your right that it requires the full PHP/MySQL/Apache setup. I mention this in the readme but it should probably have gone here too.
