Hi. I've been writing -nomauth with only the one when trying to send
it as a switch. I was just writing in too much of a hurry and forgot
to proofread.

Anyway, I've gone through the Start.pl script to the best of my
limited ability. I see how the MAUTH details are sent. It's really
rather clever. The thing that troubles me is that I don't see any
reference, in there, to ZQuake sending data to a master server or
requesting it from that server. I've tried passing the -nomauth switch
to ZQuake, but I'm beginning to get the idea that -nomauth is not
designed to eliminate this issue. I understand how to edit the
Start.pl file to get rid of the mauth sending feature, but another way
to do that is just to open start.ini and change the Valid parameter to
1 in the user section. Less complicated that way. It might be worth
adding to the agrip stats and servers page.

Still, I can't seem to get Quake to stop looking for a master server
to send stuff to. This is probably a really simple thing, something
I've overlooked or overcomplicated. I'd really love help with this,
because I'm running my brain ragged.

Thanks, in advance.
