How would that work ? As I understand it, the login server needs to decrypt the password that the EQ client encrypts. To have a different encryption algorithm would require altering the client, no ? (or just ignore the password, as I think minilogin does)
Hmm, good point. I was thinking more of perhaps having it encrypt the pw into the db by a fashion (or more just put it in raw, and read it like that or something) perhaps the same as ignoring it which would be another way to go.
Either way, it doesn't need to store pws, since it is a private access server only, and if it's encrypted in the db, that should be fine as well. Just not source then at that point, and precompiled.
