It's pretty hard to pick the same password as someone else, except by luck or if you hack the saved game format. However, VASSAL is going to start recognizing "authenticated" users who have verified their identify with a username/password on the server. That'll keep people from spoofing someone else's identify on the server, and that could carry over into ownership of pieces in a game as well. rk [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
