Recently d/l'd and installed Control, brought the board back up for the first time and one of my WG system files got corrupted (wginit I think). Reinstalled a fresh copy og WG over the old and rebooted the bbs, which ran just fine. BUT, now ALL of my current playing users can't get into mud. (You do not have the correct key to play the game blah blah blah). I've checked the PlayMud key in the Security Utilities, checked to make sure keys weren't removed or added to the user classes, deleted the all of the classes and recreated them from scratch, etc etc. Nada. Only thing that has worked is to give a user the master key to the system to get them into mud. Anyone have any idea what happened?

Did you give the users the Demo and Paying key. They have to have the paying key in order to get into mud.

go through each of the settings in the general WG/MMud settings and in the security & accounting settings. when you reinstalled, it probably reset a lot of your keys. check the audit trail when WG loads Mud to make sure everything is loading correctly (make sure it's actually registered and all).
just delete the keys that are required to play the game and such. they only thing you need to have a name of a key actually entered for is your sysop and gameop commands.
IE: the "PLAYKEY" under security and accounting can just be deleted and left blank ... meaning no key required.
