Lets say the original db password uses dbpass=sha1(plaintext) On the client, login.user = 'bubba'; login.password = sha1(txt.input); So on the server, we actually get encrypted = md5(session.salt + md5(login.password)) which if you use getApi().checkSecurePassword on dbpass, should return you true a...

In Malkyne's defense, I don't think manually adding users was ever explicitly covered in the docs.

Just to help narrow it down a bit, use getApi().joinRoom(...) instead of Room.addUser

SFSApi is your friend.

I found this old thread on the 1.x forums from BigFish which might be a good idea to try http://www.smartfoxserver.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3695&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight= Quick summary: hash the password on the client to duplicate your db hash, then send and compa...

The weakest link is the open network here, so sending clear-text passwords (or reversible ones for that matter) over the wire is worse than having to store it on the database. If you already have another authentication system running, there's always the possibility of piggybacking on it and issuing ...

Okay, for the sake of clarity, let's assume the following concrete example: Server hosting SFS2X Internal IP: 192.168.0.35 SFS2X Socket Addresses: 127.0.0.1 SFS2X Socket Addresses: 192.168.0.35 config.xml: 24.56.133.10 My Girlfriend's computer Internal IP: 192.168.0.136 My Router External IP: 24.56....

cd to the directory that sfs2x.sh is located first before running the script.

'Threshold check' would probably have been a better choice of words. Last submitted position and rotation are recorded on the client and are extrapolated and compared to the current values. A threshold is used to determine whether we should submit it to the server. On the server-side, we have a visi...

I want to second this request for a javadoc jar.

Like all things dealing with SFS2X performance: It varies. The best thing to do is to build a representative level (network wise) and see what your average KBps per user is and how it scales as you add other players it needs to interact with. Your first limiter will likely be bandwidth capacity. For...

http://docs2x.smartfoxserver.com/GettingStarted/installation Make sure you follow the instructions for Post-Installation. Also, at the bottom, you'll notice it mentions that the examples are all configured to use 127.0.0.1 Edit the config.xml files to use the correct ip and then browse to the server...

First, I recommend using ssh tunnels to log into the admin control panel and make changes there. Obviously, the troubleshooting section isn't going to cover bypassing the admin tool. If you're determined to make the changes manually, then with regards to the points 1) Don't change your port just yet...

wow their vps service lokks great!!! Are there any problems with this host? You get what you pay for. http://www.web-hosting-top.com/web-hosting/web-hosting-top.burst.net-reviews I have to ask, since you don't seem to be doing this as a commercial endeavor, have you considered just using DynDNS and...

Wanna throw that one in the docs for linux? It only covers the service script right now.

Hi, I will talk with my colleagues and discuss this issue. It's actually not entirely clear to me if the NPC affect the license limits or not. Will give you an update as soon as it is sorted out. Just for giggles, I had tried creating 100+ NPCs on the community edition and got locked out of logging...
