I need to know how U would log on to a SMAUG based MUD as the administrator from a location other than the admin's comp. I know you are thinking, "HACKER". But I am the owner of the game but I need to be able to log on as the admin from the public library. How do i do that?

What's stopping you? Anyone can log on from anywhere, provided they aren't in a "block list" of IP addresses.

Dude, I am really new at the whole coding thing. When I log on to the mud from my house (the server comp) it automatically logs me on as the main deity. But I have no clue how to do it from another comp. Thats all I need to know...

I don't understand why it would automatically log you on, you normally need a character name and password. As for the other computer, you need to know the IP address of the computer you are running the server on.

ello.. if your using a mud client that autologs then i can see what u mean, if you want to get in from a lib then do this: (this is simple so sorry if im insulting you)

im taking it your using windows since your on a network so ill give you 4 ways!

win98 or lower

1) start bar, run, type 'telnet' then goto connect, remote host, type in the ip address for your mud (if its your home than ur ip address will change!!!!)
and in the 'port' tab you put the port your running (defult 4000) then loging in with yourname and password HEY PRESTO!

all versions of window (run disallowed)

go to MSDOS providing you have the 'priv' to get it.

then type 'telnet:youripaddress:port' it must and the ':' in it to work.. this also works on a windows address bar(internet explorer) i.e.
telnet:127.0.0.1:4000 will load telnet and connect to the stated ip address.

3) put telnet onto a 3.5 floppy and when you log onto the lib press the 'windows' key left hand side of the keyboard between the 'ctrl' and 'alt' then type a:\telnet and follow step 1

4) if none of the above work then (no programs open) press the 'start' key and F this brings up the find box just type telnet and look for it on the 'local machine' C:\!

hope this works!!!!!
