Just a though: metaserver entries of 'permanent' server should, at least partially, be stored in a config file of metaserver.
For example, if I create a server named "Lands of magic", i don't want someone to configure his own personal server with the same name and fool the players. Permanent servers should have reserved names in metaserver. Also, metaserver should have a way to ensure the given connection ip is the one from which the metaserver entries are sent (currently it's only a matter of sending an udp packet and so metaserver could be overflowed by fake entries with random ips) _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
