I am getting disconnected and IP banned when trying to login to an account that doesn't exist on WAR3/W3XP.

Here is where I get disconnected:

As you can see, I am disconnected right after sending SID_AUTH_ACCOUNTLOGONPROOF. This only happens when trying to login to an account that doesn't exist.

Has this happened to anyone else?
Why would this be happening?

Wouldn't I just get a response from SID_AUTH_ACCOUNTLOGONPROOF saying the account doesn't exist instead of being disconnected?

[UserLoser.]

Since SID_AUTH_ACCOUNTLOGON from the server is telling you the account doesn't exist, you can't send SID_AUTH_ACCOUNTLOGONPROOF.  The server would have no way to check your password in SID_AUTH_ACCOUNTLOGONPROOF if it doesn't exist

0x53 responses:

0x00: Send logon proof
0x01: ERROR_ID_UNKNOWNACCOUNT (Send account create)
0x05: ERROR_ID_UNSUPPORTEDACCOUNT (Send upgrade request)
Else: NETERROR_DEFAULTERROR

Ah, I was sending 0x54 regardless of what response I was getting from 0x53. My mistake. Thanks.
