[DistrictMine] Albus v4.0
Whitelisting via forum grouping

Albus is a whitelist plugin that allows admins to whitelist their servers, by grouping members in their forum. The Bukkit server will ask the forum's database - whenever someone logs in - whether their username in the forum has a group id that is allowed to join the server.

This is especially good for subscription servers, where SMF subscriptions are used. It will completely automate the whitelist function for your minecraft server.

I am NEVER updating this plugin. It has been superseded by http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/18175/

Warrant will do exactly the same job, but better and with more options.

 

Long time no see Ant59. You will notice that this thread has now been placed into the Inactive Plugin subforum.
If you wish to revive this plugin, please ensure that you update and test compatibility with the latest recommended Bukkit build before reporting your original post, asking for it to be moved back to the release forum.

Thanks for your time.
