i fixed the error to psytrac, probably he send the fix for you too :D

ah he said to me that he talk with you and he said you are working on it. in that time i already fixed it. but he helped me whole days to find a solution want to say thanks for it. anyway somehow fixed it. but there is one problem. still there is a way to crash auth via client.

login flood will take down auth. i think we have to modify auth for it. i will give a try to modify and make login try limit per one ip. but still idk how to do that. i will give a try. for now i made cronjob every 15 min restart auth. coz that person coming always and try to crash my auth with flooding Chinese letters.

check the auth source, however limiting people to log in with 1 account won't really make players happy.. On the other side it might still crash the auth as it would need to check if theres already someone sign'ed in which will still send xxxxxxx amount of requests towards the auth in order to check making it crash from that then.

Limiting dual clienting might slow down people from opening multiple clients and loging in multiple chars but i doubt that will slow down the person who crashes the auth.
