I used to used http://www.crosswinds.net/ a *long* time ago... However,
I took a free glance and they don't look to have any free options any more.

Try www.100megsfree.com, perhaps? (never used them, so can't say
good/bad, but I have seen friends that use them)

Maybe I should spill the beans... But during some chat with Will (999),
he mentioned a new linux world server that was a total rewrite of the
first, including support for MySQL. I'm not sure about any of the
details, or any estimated release date. He just said he had been working
on rewriting the server and that it supported MySQL.

I don't have any answers to this problem...

However, I have a problem with Gor worlds that say "He we try to keep
kids out, we have this nifty little bot that asks for your age..."

Saying that they because they have a age checking bot script they are
attempting to keep the kids out just doesn't cut it. Everyone knows all
you have to do is lie to the bot.

I've mentioned before that these scripts are rather pointless. All they
do is anoy the people who should really be in the world, and make kids
laugh as they lie to the bot.

In order for me to consider the gor worlds as having "made an attempt to
keep the children out", they're going to do a little more than get a bot
that you can lie to.

Alex,

While I can't claim to readily use your bots, or even know the first
thing about scripting for them... I have to agree that this is a huge
step forward. Having the power of MySQL (or any SQL database) as a
backend open myrid doors for new applications.

I almost want to congratulate you on your accomplishment, but I don't
think those are the words I'm looking for. I guess I just want to say
thanks for continuing to further the development of bots for AW. Your
work definitly sets the (high) standard for everyone else out there.
Your dedication and time spent working on the project, when AW seems to
be all but ready for the final nail in its coffin, also says a lot.

On the MySQL enabled server... I've heard stuff about this too from 999
(Will), however, I have no idea when (or even *if*) they'll release this
new feature. Personally, I think we need to fix the linux problems
before we go crazy with MySQL. Hopefully this total rewrite (if that's
what it is) will fix the problems.

Regards,
Jeremy

To answer your question... If the motherboard was bad, it may have
corrupted the data on the hard disks, who knows... If the world server
was not shutdown properly or the machine crashed (hung), the database
could also be corrupted.

Here's my opinion:
I belive this problem as a whole (database corruption) stems from the
specific database that the aw server uses. The world server has the
"CTree" database built in and simply uses API calls to interface with
the database.

When I was tying to track down the source of the linux world server hang
(when Roland was still around and well before he left, if that says
anything about how old that bug is), he and I considered the idea of a
corrupt cell database (this could technically apply to any of the
databases, attributes, elev, and eject included).

This is a direct quote from an e-mail Roland sent me:
"Unfortunately, there is no easy way to detect file corruption. We use a
third party database toolkit and all it presents is a series of API
calls [He's refering to CTree and it's API as I mentioned earlier -J]
for accessing the data. There is no "find corrupted data" call or
anything like that. But doing a propdump/propload like I descirbed is
guaranteed to remove any corruption since it wipes the database and
starts over."

So, as Roland described... The only way to remove corruption is to run
the following commands (in linux).
propdump -s > propdump.txt
propload < propdump.txt

This dumps the cell database to a flat file, and then reloads it into
the database from the flat file. The problem is that the
propdump/propload programs won't detect any corruption. I'm not sure if
the API calls don't return any sort of error message when they run into
corruption in the database, or if the aw server just ignors errors
returned by the API calls. Either way, it just seems the
errors/corruption is quietly ignored. Which leaves you wondering if
there was any corruption, and if so where it was.

This is only an example of yet *another* fundamental problem with the
activeworlds server. I have come to believe that the world server (and
CTree itself) wasn't designed in anticipation of handeling the huge
databases that we throw at it (157,992,189 records/objects in AlphaWorld
and counting), or furthermore the high user loads. Any database of this
size needs to be handled by a more serious database engine (MySQL anyone?).

And what's more is that a database engine (such as MySQL) already has
programs to detect (and repair, imagine that!) corrupt tables. MySQL
integration would mean no more guessing at corruption, or suffering in
the aftermath. MySQL is much easier to backup, and replicate (a live
backup server). If that's not enough to convince you, ther are multitues
of progams to help manage the databases (MySQL built in utilities and
stuff like phpMyAdmin)... so that's half the work already done for AW!
Once again, the world server simply needs to use API calls to interface
with MySQL, and we can use the existing tools to dump/load/backup/repair
the tables.

I could go on and on about other advantages too... Like, advanced user
and rights/permissions management. Bots can directly connect to the SQL
server and manipulate the databases, without going though the aw server,
which simplifys the SDK. It allows a direct interface to the live
database (from a webpage via php, or other program) to do large
operations. Whereas currectly you have to take a propdump, use a program
to modify it, and then load the new file.

So.. umm, what are we waiting for?

I'd like to announce that the beta version of the AWTeen Property Search
is online.

Although it is in a very unpolished state, all the features/search
options work. I welcome any and all feedback (comments, suggestions,
constructive criticism) here or at JerMe at nc.rr.com.

Kathryn,

I popped your name into my contact list, grabbed your cit num, and ran a
search for property built only in 2002...

I came up with 23 results.

What's even more weird, is the 23 results are split between two specific
times:
2002-08-20 04:07:40 (10 objects)
2002-12-04 03:07:18 (13 objects)

They're also all terrain.rwx objects.

It get's weirder....
I tried actully teleporting to the location of these objects to see what
the AW browser says about their time stamps, but they don't exist. The
place I teleported to was where you had built some underground land
cover. The terrain texture has definitly changed though, meaning that
at some point there were terrain.rwx objects there.

So, i'm not sure what's going on. But I don't think it's the property
search's fault. The way I create the database that is uses is to have a
script go though a propdump line-by-line and insert it into the MySQL
database. So it must have come out of the propdump with a 2002 date on it.

See if you can use the property search to teleport to those objects (use
the date fields between 20020101 and 20021231) and let me know if you
can find those terrain objects.

umm, yea... It's your own priv pass.

I realize the pages are not all in SSL and everything. Right now, that's
just not possible for several reasons.

1) Money.. It takes some money to buy an SSL certificate from
Verisign/Network Solutions (my preferred provider registar). That's
money I don't really have. The people of AWTeen should feel special
enough that I'm paying for the server, maintaining the server, and
writing all (or most) of the pages. I'm a poor broke college student,
what do you expect?

2) Configuration.... SSL requires the site to have it's own IP address,
you can't use the apache VirtualHosts. It just so happens that
VirtualHosts are what I use in my config file. Yes, this can be changed.
But, until I have another IP address (just a mattter of requesting one),
and a SSL certificate, there's no reason to change this and complicate
the configuration any more than it already is.

3) It's just a priv pass, not your credit card number.

So, if you're that paranoid then I guess don't use it. I don't know what
else I can tell you.

-Jeremy

P.S. A one year 40-bit SSL certificate for AWTeen.com would be $349 USD.
If anyone is feeling generous enough, I'd be more than happy to take a
donation for this ammount and use it to setup SSL for awteen.com.
http://www.verisign.com/products/site/secure/index.html

Like I said earlier though, I definitly don't have that much money to
contribute (on top of what I already am with the server). And I don't
really see SSL as being that necessary.

xelag,

> I mean no disrespect.
And neither do I :-) (We definitly don't need this turning into a
flame war, as is too often the case here recently)

> 1) trusting the person you give them to.
Yes, trust is a very funny thing. I think I've been around AW and
AWTeen long enough to be trusted. If Chanty and AWI trusts me with the
AWTeen Caretaker priv pass, I think you can trust me with yours.

If you're really that nervous, just ask and I'll post the script's
source for everyone to look at.

> 2) making sure you are not evesdropped (SSL)
I think we covered that one in my last post.

Yes, you're correct, anyone can use a bot to accomplish exactly the same
goal as the Property Search scripts. However, a search of this nature
requires time (it takes me about 8 hours to query all of AWTeen),
entales dealing with large files (AWTeen's propdump is 1.6GB), and/or
dealing with bots/programs that end up bogging your system down as they
run for hours on end. A search of this kind is generally prohibitive to
most users and their systems because of the reasons listed above. This
is something that most people are unwilling to do (and therefore the
purpose of creating the property search scripts in the first place).

However, not having a priv pass on the search scripts would allow anyone
with the slightest bit of knowledge to look up anyone's property very
quickly, and that can lead to problems.

So, while I realize that anyone can use a bot to do the same thing, I
think the priv pass adds a certin sense of privacy (while not a complete
sense) and keeps malacious users from abusing the property search scripts.

> As suggested by AWI, I do not give my privs to anyone unless I trust
> them, less alone to an anonymous web page that can be evesdropped.

This applies to any every website then... Who garantees your privacy on
any site?

> With Xelagot, I have had various acusations of backdoors and viruses

Don't know what to say about this.... We both know there's stupid people
out there. While these stupid people make up a small part of the
population (relativly), they will to contine to use their stupidity to
raise hell and cause unneccessary drama/problems. However, I refuse to
let their stupidity hold me back from making a utility that is very
useful for the brighter ones of the bunch.

So, I guess what I'm trying to say is that there's always going to be
people out there who want to make unfounded accusations of trojan
horses, viruses, backdoors, hacking, etc, etc,... and I'm prepared to
deal with their nonsense.

Using priv passes does nothing to *garantee* protection against
vandalsim, but without a priv pass I can garantee that the scripts would
be used *for* vandalism. Because the scripts make it quick and
effortless to look up property they are much more attractive to
malacious users, and would be very prone to abuse without a priv pass.


> Just my opinion
All of this is, of course, is my opinion also and you should take it as
such.

>and keep the good work on a helpfull bot :)
Thank you, and likewise to yourself.

Regards,
Jeremy

You thoughts were all kinda run together there CP, but I'm going to try
to make sense of it...

First of all, it would take *a lot* of skill (not just 1 week's worth)
to intercept packets from one remote network to another remote network.

And yes, I *could* be making a list of priv passes, but i'm not.
1) I'm not really interested in messing with other people builds...
2) I'm already a CT in AWTeen.. If I really wanted to go out and cause
problems, I'd just use those privs. Making this whole property search
thing would just be a waste of time.

CP, my friend, I'm already ahead of you. My next step is to introduce a
login sytem on AWTeen.com itself. You would register once and the server
would check your cit num and priv pass (just as it does now) at that
time. From then on though, you would use a seperate password to log in
to AWTeen.com and the server would no longer need your priv pass
everytime, knowing that you've already verified your account.

As always, if you're that paranoid about your privlage password, you can
use the suggestion someone made earlier. Change your password to
something different, use the property search, and when your done, change
your password back. That simple... :-)

My guess is that they pushed the upgrade out without changing the latest

Because the latest "non-beta" browser setting wasn't updated, from the

JunoDome was not an "original" world, in that sense. It was created
several years ago, but AW and various other worlds have been around
longer. JunoDome has not always been around.

However, you are correct, JunoDome was created when, several years ago
now (i'm not sure exactly how long), AWI (then called ActiveWorlds.com
-- AWCom, I believe) formed a partership with Juno, a dial-up ISP.

I'm not sure how long the partnership lasted, but eventully things fell

Since none of the other AWTeen CTs have commented on this, I'll go ahead
and throw a few comments out regarding this matter....

First, I wasn't the one who ejected you, so I don't presume to say
whether this was a "just" or "unjust" ejection.

However, I will say that I have received multiple complaints regarding
harassment from at least two individuals. I would also venture to say
that from my observations at ground zero over the past week, you had
made yourself out to be a general nuisance. Admittedly, that is not a
valid reason for an ejection, but I'd say it's probably the straw that
broke the camel's back.

Judging from the complaints and the "following avatars around"
(borderline harassment), I would reason that some questionable chat was
enough to warrant an eject.

But, I do not have all the facts and I wasn't there... Thus, I cannot
conclusively say whether your ejection was reasonable or not.

However, I would say that this (posting in a public ng) is hardly the
way to go about questioning your ejection. For future reference (for you
and anyone else), the best way is to start by contacting one of the
AWTeen CT directly by e-mail/telegram first.

JerMe

"If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called
"AMD", this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD is a third-world based
company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor
chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops,
and they deliberately disable the security features that American
processor makers, such as Intel, use to prevent hacking. AMD chips are
never sold in stores, and you will most likely be told that you have to
order them from internet sites. Do not buy this chip! This is one
request that you must refuse your son, if you are to have any hope of
raising him well."
