Title: Auth System
Post by: TheNewOne on April 21, 2004, 11:25 PM
ok a bot im making is using a winsock based auth system with a client ->server relationship. The Client connects to the ip and the server listens on port. Then the client will get data from a array stored on the server side. This Server side array contains the auth passes. ok now i wanna know if its possable for the client to get the server side ip if the ip changed for some apparent reason. and if so can you pelase enlighten me. All good posts will be appreciated.

use a domain and DNS.
www.authsystem.tk for example and have that redirect to the servers ip.

If the client buys presents for the server, their relationship will be strong.  If he doesn't, he will have to sleep on the couch.


(I'm only posting this because the question was already answered - www.no-ip.com is l33t)

Out of curiousity, what are you comparing to allow the client access to do what ever?  Are you using a username/password kind of thing?
