Crossfire version: 0.89.2
Computer: Sparc 10
OS: SunOS UNIX OS/MP 4.1.2
Compiler: gcc -ansi
Ok, I have everything compiling beautifully (thanks again for the
stdarg.h advice), and I'm not getting any error messages when running
the program.
My problem, now, is that I can't log on a characters.
Here's what happens:
I run the server (or client) and the window comes up with "kitty the
human" as the player. Kitty is the name of the sparc IPX I was
playing from. The server was running on a sparc 10. The right window
prompts me for my name. For any combination I type, I get the
message: "That name is already in use." I can't do anything else.
Any keyboard input is fed to the window that's asking for my name.
The mouse has no effect.
Here is the debbugging output:

I receive no error messages when I enter my name. I only get: "That
name is already in use." in the right window of the game.
I think I've read all the doc and README files that came with the
server source. I didn't see anything on the ftp site that seemed like
it had information that would help. Is there something I haven't read
that someone could refer me to? Anyone know what's wrong this time?
I thought it might have something to do with LOCK_PLAYER in the
config.h file, but when I commented it out or undefined it, nothing
changed.
So, can you tell my how I can make players and log them on?
Thanks again,
Jon
