you went into



start>programs>wg server>utilities>hardware setup>core>group 1>NUMBR1: Number of Channels (decimal): and upped it?



There must be different demo's of WG floating around..last BBS I was on that was in demo, whoever wanted to could connect, the BBS just went down every 4 hours. But aparently there's one that limits users? I don't know..WG is a headache.

No no, i can have more than 2 people in the mud at the same time, i cant get more than 5 general accounts set up. My sysop account counts as one, then when i have more than 4 friends sign up i get this thing about it being out of accounts. its totaly odd.

Nobody said anything about mud. They are trying to help you set up WG. We know it's not a mud problem. You need to register your WG, or change the option that Plat said to change. Those are the only two things I can think of going wrong.

I've got the same problem, I can only make 5 accounts and after that i get some error saying i can not make more. I did reg it for 256 and followed all instructions properly.. if i setup worldgroup on another pc i can make more than 5 accounts. Also its not the hardcoded demo that i installed, I've got both files.

When worldgroup loads it says:



SERVERUP: V3.20-256(5) - READY TO SERVICE USERS

on the other pc it will say

SERVERUP: V3.20-256(889651) - READY TO SERVICE USERS..





anyone know the problem?
