Invalid Name or Password when trying to log on to a server

Postby Fallen Matrix » Wed Mar 12, 2008 6:08 am

Hi guys.

All of the sudden I am trying to log back into he academic server and it tells me that my name and password are not valid.

When I run the Dictionary breaker thing it runs, but just closed up without changing anything or giving me a new pass.

I'm doing between level 2 and 4 missions BTW.

I've made sure to always delete my logs, however when I tried other missions, I am getting the same results, invalid name or pass, then the pass-cracker-word-thingy not doing it's thang'

HELP! I love this game and want to conquer the world!!! :!~

Use the password breaker, not dictionary breaker. The latter is faster, but fails completely if the password is not a word in the dictionary.

YES!! Thank you! That did the trick.

If there's anything worse than using the wrong software in real life, that would be doing the same in a game!

Sorry for reviving this dead thread, but I seem to have a similar problem.

I logged into the Academic server several times, but EVERYTIME I click on disconnect,
he tells me that my account and password are being rewoked (or what ever it's called).

Is this normal? Do I have to use the PW_Cracker EVERY single time I hack into the academy server?


Still confused by this game,

Well, if they know you've hacked into the admin account, why wouldn't they revoke the password. ;)
