[...] The handleOggV function in ntserv/socket.c is only defined if either BASEPRACTICE, NEWBIESERVER or PRETSERVER are defined. This may not be sufficient, but it could be a good start.

Checking this bit may be a better approximation. > While someone can have a login with robot in it (I've seen several > people who do), they can't send an oggv packet with a normal client. I don't think people with a login of "robot" are a problem, although they may fairly soon learn that this means their slot on the server is under-reported. It will be self correcting, perhaps. > PS, is there an archive of the old CVS repository? I don't have one.
