Knight Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 I want to be able to create a login process for my script so that a user must use a username and password in order to run the program. It must verify the username and pass through the internet with a file or database I can create. I was looking at using mysql, but it would require each user to have the odbc driver installed. I already know autoit isn't the securest for this kind of thing, but I am not worried about that right now. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could do this?

cassetti Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 well - you can use ie.au3 or its inet.au3 to have it download a hidden page - you don't want to use the inetget( function to do this - since that will save it to a file what you wnat ot use is the function that will save a page to an array you can do this by lines. bascilly what i'm thinking you put a file up - that has nothing in it tehcnically - but the html has a comment (this prevents anyone who might browse to it from seeing anything) - and in this comment - there will be lines of the usernames and passwords - you can even possibly use the encrypter to encrypt and decrypt these lines long story short - you would have a file on the web - the program would download this list to an array then it will look for the line that has that username (if it does not find it, it will reply that it did not find it) If it finds the line number with that username (again - what you could do is someway encrypt the username and the password, and when they type in the usernmae - it will encrypt that and save it to a variable, then it will look in the page for a line with that encrypted line after it finds it - it will read the NEXT line number in the array - this is the password - it will compaire the entered password with that one bam - there ya go - problem solved very very interesting idea for creating a way to only allow subscribers to use your program - this might be a good idea for me to do it also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Posted February 18, 2006 Author Share Posted February 18, 2006 That would work and I might give it a try. But I was hoping for something more structured and secure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
