Hi all! I apologize for the cross-post, but since I have no idea to whom I should direct this, I'm sending it out to everyone. Someone in my contact list has...
This virus is doing the rounds at the moment. I've received it a lot, but fortunately my Norton Antivirus shreds it every time I receive it. What worried me...
... Or just do what I do, and use things like Hotmail and Yahoo as your e-mail addresses. It's a lot harder to get a virus from a web-page than an attachment...
I should also note that some of the spam mailers and klez distributors used forged bounces to make you more likely to open the mail and any attachments. Any up...

Suggestions for extra security: ( but only go this far if you either have too much at stake to take any chances, or just like the idea of going to extremes for...
Well, after installing FlowMuck (the most recent version on the legacy.muq server) on a Debian Linux box, getting it all setup, I connect and get a default...
... Did you try "connect #1 potrzebie", or are you using an pre-existing database? connect and WHO are the only commands to count on having when logging into a...
No, I'm using a new database, and I tried that command, I get the same response: a reprint of the screen. The WHO command does get a response though- "Lots of...
Sure. I checked the DB files, and there IS a player #1, called wizard, with the word 'potrzebie' down below it, in a location I assume makes it the password ...
... That should surely work, then. Are you trying the connect multiple times on the same connection? Did you try 'connect wizard potrzebie'? What telnet client...
... OK, I was just wondering since some telnet clients will send telnet codes that the MUCK doesn't honor, so when you enter 'connect' it actually sees '<some...
Is there any chance this client is trying to send Unicode characters to the muck server? I've been wondering if newer clients might do this. Does this client...
I'm fairly certain that it's not the client I'm using at this point. I've tried the connection with Windows Telnet, Rapscallion, AL Client, NCSA Telnet, and...
... /glow/game/data or ~someuser/glow/game/data? ... Fuzzball 6 is nice: http://sf.net/projects/fbmuck/ I've filed a few bugs and contributed a wee bit of...
... No thanks I''ll stick with Glowmuck - I like having multi-level wizzes and I know the code base enough to feel comfortable. -- Snowy Angelique Maslov aka...
How big is the timequeue in Glow? Is it possible to make the timequeue bigger? I mean.... I'm guessing it would require a re-compile. But could someone just...
I did a grep for 'timequeue' in the source (ok, I admit it, I was in Windows at the time and really used Find in Files, I'm so ashamed) and found a setting in...
There are 3 bugfixes that have sat in my inqueue for like the past 2 years that are implemented in some form. See PAK_FIXES for longer details. For right now...
since the glowmuck stuff is up at muq.org, does anyone know what has happened (if anything) with muq itself? There is all sorts of interesting things up on ...
Well I guess I could answer those questions since i'm on the muq team in one way or another. Cunbe, the head of the Muq project, was working roughly 80-hour...
Okay...trying to figure this out. We're still using 3.1.7, and there's an @tune option called 'Who_Hides_Dark'. Seems pretty straightforward, and we have...
who_hides_dark is only in there for compatibility with Fuzzball and for muf programs that would support it. The server as it is pretty much completely ignores...
... Gotcha.. Makes sense. One thing, though... Setting yourself 'Dark' still hides you in rooms and such due to GlowLook. This works to our advantage in...
$lib/look and $cmd/look fall under the 'Fuzzball compatibility' category. They could be modified if someone didn't want that effect to occur. Just change the...
Okay, here's a quick question. Anyone here know where I can get look-notify, findall, whospecies, and whatisz for Glow 3.1.7? (Or something that's completely...
There are some of the semi-standard programs available in the muf directory of the Glow ftp site. Feaelin and others have additional muf archives, but I'm not...
I've searched a few MUF archives, but I continually get compiler errors. Sadly, I'm an expert builder, but I know jack when it comes to MUF, so when I get...
Muf tends to be a bit of an art. It helps to have someone you know with account access who can get the muf stuff working. Did you load the macros in the...
