eXServer 1.8

[Dark_Element]

After a bit of developing, reading through codes and writing a administration program i've finally got 1.8 finished. In case you don't know eXServer is a socket server made in PHP. The best advantage eXServer has over Java/C++ made socket servers is that it can even run on hosting plans.

eXServer 1.8 is open source and is purely PHP. You are free to download it and use it for stuff as long as you agree to the agreement which is attached to the program.

eXServer 1.8 features:
-Flash Support [improved]
-MySQL Support [improved]
-Boarding passwords
-Targeting applications
-Automatic Install + Configuration [Improved]
-Event and error logging [Improved]
-Administration program [New]
-Customised Incomming package processing [New]
-IP Baning [New]
-Remote Connection Termination [New]
-Multiple server management [New]
-Server Session Details [New]

BTW: i am looking for some feedback if you download the program. Suggestions for code improvement will also be appreshiated

Thanks for your time

PS: Screw you if you steal my codes LOL :P (Just kidding)

Looks great...
One thought: you should put a warning if the mysql pass is empty instead of an error. I had to change the script to be able to test it on my localhost where there is no pass.

Didn't test the server yet.

Tomorrow... :)

...hum I'll build a handle file that works with a flash chat program soon

The main purpose of eXServer is to serve EXSAE's real time multiplayer mech game and make it distributeable so that anyone can host a server... but since development for that game is taking ages (im the only programer with AS knowledge... sigh we are in need for some AS programers) I've decided it's best to EXSAE's interests to distribute the socket server without the plugins and extensions so that we would have another project :D

Example now avilable! i cant attach the .fla file here cos its 1.2 MBs. However you can find it at www.exsae.necronhosting.com/files/chat_example.fla

the attached is 1 chat application with some basic administration functions and a handle file made to serve it. I did not bother with security or input correction since its only a demostration of what eXServer can do.

PS: there may be minor errors in it but i am sure its safe to run (errors may be around message handeling and not actual server run)
