I see that @jerk can deny access on the basis of IP addresses and address ranges. There seems no dedicated documentation on @jerk on glow's command listing...
Generally, the old fuzzball goodie of @bansite works best for that. You can
use hostnames, and used wildcards to block an entire IP or just a node
thereof....
That was incredibly smeared with typoes. So I won't sound like an idiot:
-USE- wildcards, and to block an entire ISP. Gad. At least the URL is
correct, at...
I'm a little confused about what criteria you are wanting to ban players with. Glow has a lot of different banning mechanisms for different types of jerks....
... The problem with most dial-up providers is that they assign dynamic IP addresses to their customers. This means in the case of an ISDN user that they could...
You can use the #0=@/sites/ banning mechanism to do octet banning, but it is limited to the 8/16/24 set of addresses, it doesn't go more granular than that. I...

I've just recently inherited the hosting of a Glowmuck-based muck after their previous host and admin disagreed with the wizzes and dumped them. This has left...
... Passwords in Fuzzball databases are not encrypted in the database file. You can open the database in a text editor and change it; do a case-sensitive ...
Thanks, Mark! One problem though...the db file has the passwords encrypted. I can't find my own in there or anyone elses...I'm not sure where to go with that....
... One will be the second to the last object entry in the database. Glow saves it's database in reverse, so you have the highest number object at the...
... Oops--Fuzzball's don't and I thought I remembered poking at a Glow db that didn't either. Huh. ... Other W4s can't @newpassword or do the password-recovery...
... No one can @newpassword #1. Period. It's hard-coded in the server that way. ANd if the DB is compressed, then you're hacking a compressed file, which is...
... I suggest using the -decompress option. You can get Glow to save an uncompressed database, then you can peek in that to get One's password. That's what I...
... Then one obvious solution would be to add code that made that not so--that's difficult and presumptuous besides, but it would work. ... Hopefully it isn't,...
Got it! Thanks to all those who posted replies and hints! It was buried in there...the previous admin had used the password (and it's been changed) ... So I...

You can get anyone's password on the muck except #1 with the @getpw command in GlowMuck. #1s and W4s should be able to do this. If you have color on I made...

Hi again, MUCKers. For awhile there I gave up on making a MUCK, but I'm determined to get one up sooner or later. Now I just.. have some questions. I'll list...
MUCK wasn't really designed to handle battle systems. and to do the alternate-dimensions thing you speak of, you'd have to design it from the core at a broad...
