OK , Search One file, And Get a certain number of things out of it...

Hi,

I have two text files,

The one i Have made,

And the one another application install made



My File

VB Code:

; Server Prefs
;
SERVERNAME "The Walks Chat"
WIZARDPASSWORD " \4554545493T\9FN"
GODPASSWORD "lq*\8FU\545459F["
PERMISSIONS 0xA0F     
DEATHPENALTY 40
MAXOCCUPANCY 200
ROOMOCCUPANCY 30
MINFLOODEVENTS 30000
MAXSESSIONID 10000
SERVEROPTIONS 0x2       
PICFOLDER "E:/Servers/PalaceServer/Palace/Media/"
SYSOP "RT46T395"
URL "palace://thewalks.ods.org:9996"
HTTP_URL "http://www.thewalks.ods.org:88/palace/media/"
AVATAR_URL "http://thewalks.ods.org:88/palace/avatars/"
MACHINETYPE "Windows 4.10,  A . Processor: pentium processor."
AUTOANNOUNCE "Hi There.  Welcome to The Walks.  If you need help Feel free to locate a Wizard or God with a * before their name. You can also connect to realm-ed.co.uk:9998 ."
JAVACLIENTWEBPAGE "http://thewalks.ods.org:88/modules.php?name=InstantPalace"
USEOTHERAVATARSERVER
ROOMSFILE "TheWalks.pat"
 
END

The installers file

VB Code:

; Server Prefs
;
SERVERNAME "Some Wierd'os Palace Chat Server"
WIZARDPASSWORD "h\93p"
GODPASSWORD "/(OA\15\84o\91q"
PERMISSIONS 0x87F     
DEATHPENALTY 120
MAXOCCUPANCY 100
ROOMOCCUPANCY 24
MINFLOODEVENTS 300
PURGEPROPDAYS 21
MAXSESSIONID 10000
PICFOLDER "E:\\Program Files\\Communities.com\\PalaceServer\\palace\\media\\"
SYSOP "Wayne Pearsall"
HTTP_URL "http://[currentIPAddress]:9990/palace/media/"
AVATAR_URL "http://[currentIPAddress]:9990/palace/avatars/"
MACHINETYPE "Windows 5.0, . Processor: pentium processor."
JAVACLIENTWEBPAGE "http://www.thepalace.com:8000/perl/palentry.pl?ID=28DSTR3L"
ROOMSFILE "PServer.pat"
 
END

OK Then

Well the ting is you see,

I wanna get certain things read from the bottom file, and replace the top files values with it, then replace the origional file (bottom one).


IE

VB Code:

SERVERNAME "The Walks Chat"
WIZARDPASSWORD " \4554545493T\9FN"
GODPASSWORD "lq*\8FU\545459F["
PERMISSIONS 0xA0F     
DEATHPENALTY 40
 
'replaced with
 
SERVERNAME "Some Wierd'os Palace Chat Server"
WIZARDPASSWORD "h\93p"
GODPASSWORD "/(OA\15\84o\91q"
PERMISSIONS 0x87F     
DEATHPENALTY 120
 
 
' and
 
ROOMSFILE "TheWalks.pat"
 
' replaced with
 
ROOMSFILE "PServer.pat"

And some more of the file,

So as to get the correct details of the persons site,,,


Now if i ONLY have to get two major things, it would be:

VB Code:

WIZARDPASSWORD "h\93p"
GODPASSWORD "/(OA\15\84o\91q"

Since its encrypted, and im not certain which encryption it uses :(

OK,

Well if some1 can let me know how to do this, i would be very happy (Cuz it would save me time writting a email to some1 every time they need to "install instant palace" on their machines :D

Thanks.

Wayne

Palace eh.

The encryption is rather simple.

Use instr to find characters and mid$ to get and replace them.

:lost:

?

do you know what the values of the passwords are? if not, you probably won't be able to work out the encryption.

if you know what they should be then you might be able to do it... if you can change the password and find out what it encrypts to then you can definitely do it (but it might take a while).

Using seperate algos.

What is this for?

Try it out with similar passwords (preferably short ones), that way you can spot the differences, eg:

a
b
aa
ab
ac
...

once you have those you'll be able to spot the similarities/differences, and hopefully work out how to encrypt/decrypt them
