ts3clientui_qt.conf and ts3clientui_qt.secrets.conf
Hi all,
It just strikes me today it is really strange that server login password is stored in ts3clientui_qt.secrets.conf, which has the file header:
(Hint: Note the word "all saved passwords and ids for teamspeak 3" =_=);WARNING!!
;THIS FILE CONTAINS ALL SAVED PASSWORDS AND IDENTITIES FOR TEAMSPEAK 3
;DO NOT SHARE THIS FILE WITH ANYONE, NOT EVEN YOUR HOSTER OR TEAMSPEAK-SYSTEMS.
;DOING SO, CAN RESULT IN UNAUTHORIZED PERSONS GAINING ACCESS TO YOUR SERVERS,
;AND EVEN WORSE, THEY CAN IMPERSONATE YOU AND THE SERVERS WILL NOT BE ABLE
;TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM AND YOU!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!
Yet, the server administration password is stored in ts3clientui_qt.conf, which has no such language in it.

)
If it's not too big of a change, my suggestion is move the admin password to the secret file as well so there's no misunderstanding.
P.S.: My platform is mac, updated to the newest version.Last edited by copper; 06-08-2012 at 20:57. Reason: proper quotations

But one is a password for server or a channel and the other one is the setting for the integrated query admin tool.
I send that to a developer lets wait for the reply.
Edit
I create a ticket for this suggestion into our system.
Our team will discuss about and will reply in that thread.Last edited by dante696; 07-08-2012 at 09:02.
