[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.

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. :)

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.
