Actually, there was more to it than just that username/password problem. I also implemented bandwidth/traffic restrictions, banned abusers manually by sifting through the logs, etc.

On top of that, this was a server I had never logged into before, so going into someone else's territory isn't quite the same as if I'd been using the system for months and knew the workings of the entire thing.

Thanks for the insult, though.
