Thank you DM.              If you want the game server to also serve as a normal BBS (e.g. for Telnet/SSH       users), then yeah, you're going to need the user to know their own password.       It sounds like you're thinking a user that wanted to use the game server       function and the normal BBS function would need two user accounts on your       system, one with a tag and the other not (not ideal, but yes, viable).       --         digital man (rob)              Steven Wright quote #32:       The colder the x-ray table, the more of your body is required to be on it.       Norco, CA WX: 53.8øF, 82.0% humidity, 6 mph WSW wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrs       --- SBBSecho 3.24-Linux        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 103/13 705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187 153/757 7715 154/10       SEEN-BY: 154/30 110 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114 229/110 114       SEEN-BY: 229/206 317 400 426 428 470 550 700 705 240/1120 5832 263/1       SEEN-BY: 266/512 280/464 5003 5006 291/111 292/8125 301/1 320/219       SEEN-BY: 322/757 341/66 234 342/200 396/45 423/120 460/58 256 1124       SEEN-BY: 467/888 633/280 712/848 770/1 902/26 5020/400 8912 5054/30       SEEN-BY: 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 280/464 460/58 229/426           |
