Hi pwnz0r thanks once again for this server pack... Greatly appreciate it!

I completely redid the server after playing on it a couple of times, and after only a few minutes of running it I noticed that someone hacked the Database...

I then simply tried to change the HiveExt.ini values under the database section to make it more secure, but this just caused problems. With the Username and password not being "dayz", I get an error on the HiveExt - cfgdayz cmd console saying : "cannot connect to MySQL database at 127.0.0.1" when joining the server and my navicat wont connect to the database with the new username and password (I did change the navicat connection properties to match that of the HiveExt.ini file).

I don't know much about these databases and the connection from them, I'm not even sure if changing this username and password of the database would even help with the hacking problem in any way...

Thank you in return!
