Need a secure query manager for Cipsoft 7.7

[minhkey]

Hi,

I have a server running Cipsoft 7.7 based on SilverFerns guide. It's been rock solid, and is hosted online, but I have not shared it with anyone apart from a few friends due to the RealOTS query manager being insecure.

My own C++ (or other relevant language skills), especially when it comes to networking, are too limited to do this myself. Thus, I'd be open to paying someone for a query manager (maybe the login server needs improvement as well?) compatible with Cipsoft 7.7 that is secure enough to open up to the public. Ideally, the query manager should also capture as much as possible from the game - I believe the RealOTS query manager doesn't?

I have very little idea about how much effort this would be for someone experienced, but please come with offers and we'll see if I can afford it.

From what ive heard kay is hosting it with the original without issues. I could be wrong though.

Hmm, I don't think he is, since he's the one that warns about it being insecure:

Do NOT open it to the public as it is! This querymanager is worse than a Swiss cheese.

I would not be surprised if he edited the original. He is pretty crafty.

Yeah, I know, he's been very helpful in answering questions so far.

It should be fine to host, just have it behind a firewall, pretty sure it was never ment to be public.
