I'm playing around with coffee mud this morning and it acurs to me to ask about keeping people out until I'm done shaping the world. So how do I keep all connection from connecting except those from localhost? The unaversity I'm at really doesn't want me to run a server on their network but I want to play with coffee mud.

All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.

if your computer in the network is using DMZ, then I don't know...
but if not, you can just don't open the port

Hi,
The mud should have an option to disable character creation, or start it in wizard mode, so only admins can enter (meaning you, for now).

How accessible is Coffee Mud? Do you actually need a mainframe computer to run it? If so, there is no way I can use it.

“There are four things that we ought to do with the Word of God – admit it as the Word of God, commit it to our hearts and minds, submit to it, and transmit it to the world.” — William Wilberforce
