One drawback of this is that I have not found a way to assign static IP's to users that connect to the OpenVPN server. Is it possible to use wildcards for the IP address when setting up an account in the mysql database (for example: *.*.*.*) ? Or do I manually have to change the IP addresses everytime someone wishes to connect to the server?
With minilogin, the only thing that matters is your IP, you can fill out what you want at the everquest login prompt, because the minilogin will only look at the ip that's related to the given acount.
You're better off using the egemu login server: you can run a locked server and set a higher than normal security level for you friends to log in.
example: your account is set to staus: 25. and server set to "locked" < this would be a normal playing status - any new accounts would start as status: 0, so they would not be able to login to your locked server.
