Login for Servers and Master Server

Has any sort of login system been made for any multiplayer games with torque? And how about a master server? Thanks in advance.

Search for master server in the forums there is so many
topics about this already.

I have done it. Totally in script and it's located on the server (of course). Access a database, sends your username & password to the server, server checks them with database and if they are correct it sets Active = 1 and saves the IP.

If it fails it sends back an error and does nothing.
That's about it.

Wow Stefan, sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. Is that open source? For sale maybe?

I would not sell anything to anyone on this site. I've got so much help from numerous people that it would not feel right.

It's not very advanced. But its not clean either :/ I would have to see it through and make it look good so that anyone can understand it.

Do you have any experience with mySQL?
That would help alot.

You *could* save all the login information on the scripts, but that wouldnt allow alot of users. A database would.

Sure, I have mySQL set up on my server for my webhosting clients, and clients can be annoying, so the experience is inherent :)

Thanks for sharing your stuff, I really do appreaciate it. I'll be sure to give you credit for it!

Ah, perfect. Thanks Erik. No offense Stefen, but I kind of have this one right now :D

If I can't get the above to work, I'll contact you again, Stefen.

Erik: Daniels resource is a bit more than just a loginserver IMO, but its very useful.

Nick: I'd have to sleep now, but if you still need some help later I could try and send you the code involved to make it work. It is not cleaned though, and I'll try to comment it down.

As I said, if youre still interested, send us a mail, I wont forget about it that way, these threads are easily lost :)

Edit: lol, posted while I was typing. You do your stuff :) tell me if it does not work and I'll help you out.
