[TuT] How to make a login. First one!

Ok so in this Tutorial i am showing you how to make a login in Visual basic 2008.

NOTE: this is NOT how to make a login for gaia.

Ok so what you will mainly need is

2 labels
2 textbox's
1 button
1 brain

Ok so first off. Make sure you Put Char on the Textbox 2. Since its the password.

Ok so after that Code the button as.

Code:

---

If TextBox1.Text = "username" And TextBox2.Text = "password" Then
            MessageBox.Show("logged in!")
        Else
            MessageBox.Show("Fail")
        End If

---

Test it out. If it works rep.
Also You can change the "username" and password. If can be anything. But it has to have the " in the Coding. You don't put it in the Textbox's.

Soon to show you how to make it open up a new form and such.

You can read the plain text from a hex editor and just enter the right username and password combination. It would most likely take me less than a minute to crack this authentication method once I realize that it's hard coded. :)

i am going to find a way to make it card coded.

There's different ways to authenticate. You definitely want to do the authentication behind a server. Be aware that you can only make it difficult for people to crack/bypass your authentications, not impossible. :)

So i would need to place it side sub servered?

Could use a HWID to protect. Even if they had the Username/Password a HWID would protect it. But if you did HWID Protect it, you might as well save the Username and password on the server anyways. :3

Nice basic tutorial though, so I wouldn't expect any form of real encryption with this.
