Cool, thank you very much.

I hope I didn't come off as a big jerk, I didn't mean to. I just really don't want to be in the situation where I have to tell all my users that they need to change their passwords because someone got onto my server and copied just one file and got all their accounts.

It makes me feel very dirty and bad.

When I downloaded and installed version 3.6.0 I removed all the files that the previous versions created. I am running 3.6.2 now, and every single users's passwords is in the database stored in plain text. Doesn't matter if the user signed up when I had 3.6.0 or 3.6.2.

You put the .jar in your plugins folder and you restart your server. It will creates a OKB3 folder containing a config.yml file. In that file the part to change is for minimal work is:

configuration: forum: PHPBB3 prefix: myforum_ use-secondary-group: false mysql-connection: mysql-host: localhost mysql-user: root mysql-password: password mysql-database-name: database mysql-port: '3306' group-mapping: default: 1: ExampleGroup1 2: ExampleGroup2 worlds: exampleworld1: '1': ExampleGroup1 '2': ExampleGroup2

forum: Is your forum you want to link, all available links are listed there: https://github.com/greatman/OKB/tree/master/src/me/kalmanolah/forumlistener

prefix: If your MySQL tables for the forum have prefix (Example phpbb_)

Use-secondary-groups allow to use the secondary groups instead of the main group of someone. Not supported for every forums.

Mysql part is self explanary.

The group-mapping is quite simple, the 1: or 2: represents the group ID on the forum and the ExampleGroup1/ExampleGroup2 represents the permissions groups

Hope it makes it a bit more clearer :P

I beleived it stored it hashed when I was checking the code. I maybe broke that with my links change. Anyway on the rewrite the password is not stored at all.

I just noticed that the database that OKB3 uses to keep track of users stores the user's passwords in plain-text in the database. This is a HUGE security flaw. Passwords should NEVER be stored anywhere in plain-text and this needs to be fixed, and as soon as humanly possible.

You should be hashing the password, store the hash of the password, and then compare the hashes.

This is not ok at all. Please fix.

I dont think he's going to because of the way he's saying you can create your own plugins for it.

You should have a configuration file similar to this one: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/okb3-renewed/pages/example-configuration/

Hello guys,

Quick news about OKB status. I almost finished the full rewrite of the plugin, there's only some bugs to squash out and it should be ready to be released. That rewrite allows me to be way more efficient on correcting bugs as there's not 30 times the same commands in the same file. There will be some missing features like forum post count reward and nickname syncing but they will be included in a later version.

The way that forum/website links changed a bit. Instead of the links to be in the .jar file, they are downloaded into the plugins/OKB3/links folder from github if the links folder doesn't exist (This zip file to be exact: https://github.com/greatman/OKB/raw/rewrite/forumlistener.zip ). That way, you can create your own link files and directly integrate it into your OKB system without going through me (Yay! Remember I still accept them to be officially included into OKB.)

Also, Syntax for the configuration will slightly be changed, you can see it there: https://github.com/greatman/OKB/blob/rewrite/config.yml

Hope you will like all the changes!

Doesnt work. I keep getting this error no matter what.

2012-04-14 13:31:09 [INFO] [OKB3] Attempting to enable OKB3 v3.6.2 by [Kalman Olah, greatman321]...
2012-04-14 13:31:09 [INFO] [OKB3] Forum link class not found, shutting down.... Check if the configuration.forum configuration node is configurated correctly.
2012-04-14 13:31:09 [INFO] [OKB3] Disabling OKB3 v3.6.2

My config is fine. But the config is lacking these settings

normal:
        user-table: phpbb_users
        minecraft-login-name-field: pf_mine_user
        rank-id-field: group_id
        multitable:
            enable-multiple-tables: 'true'
            second-table: phpbb_profile_fields_data
            user-id-field-in-user-table: user_id
            user-id-field-in-second-table: user_id

How does it know where to find them with out these options?

please put back in the multiple groups identifier like

group-mapping: default: '1': unregistered '26': registered '17,25': gold '17,18,25': gold '17,18': gold '20,17': platinum '17,20': platinum

Why did you remove it ? >.< The plugin is useless now :\
