There is an old proof of concept project that I was working on banging around somewhere here, called luaLFS, which was basically an InSim Client with the lua engine embedded, and it passed stuff backwards and fowards from lua scripts. It was very, very hacky but worked relatively well for single servers.
In concept it worked pretty much in the same way as you're proposing - hooks and events.
My goal was to make InSim a bit more accessible, but the big problem, in my belief, was actually making it easier to understand. If this is the same goal you're trying to hit then I'd be interested in seeing what can be brought up now
Edit: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=19832
I'm not saying it's a bad idea, but I'm just wondering what the goal is (not that there has to be one) and whether or not previous projects can help solve some of the possible issues you might come across with adoption
It's "recently" been renamed to System Center Configuration 2007, which you may know it as.
Sounds like you're after WMI (which System Center/SMS uses incidentally (to a point)) - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa394572(VS.85).aspx, and in particular using wmic and wql (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa394531(VS.85).aspx)...
If you think any of what has been said here is genuine abuse then you are really going to struggle in life.
You were given an explanation multiple times, and whilst some of those explanations were a little short, and arrogant, they were explanations nonetheless.
The developers have made no assurances that any textures will stay:
* in the same format or size
* in the same file
* etc. etc.
That's completely unacceptable behaviour and you've crossed the line.
I'm very getting bored of threads which are reported, where you are involved Shadowww. Think a bit more carefully about how you post.
I'd suggest contacting 500 servers directly - http://www.500servers.com/forum/, or by contacting Franky500. In my understanding you manage it by logging onto the control panel via their website, but having never had a server from them I honestly don't know exactly.
If it isn't then there are 2 angry posts from Victor, which I really can't see somehow
Now if it were me - I've definately got a large number of posts left over from prior to being a mod where I really let rip 
No offence Greenseed, but having been on the other end of a misunderstanding with you before I think that this is another one.
As already stated the only time I've seen Victor get quite, justifiably annoyed, was in the case of a very young poster who, after months and months of winding people up, was told to shut up.
To give you an idea this person was following others into LFS servers to ask the same programming related questions over and over, the same questions over MSN and other instant messenger, the same questions over on the forum, over and over and over again. Many other forum members complained that they were simply being stalked.
Many of these posts and threads have been removed as it always descended into arguments over and over again.
Without knowing the history of the situation it's extremely hard to see it as anything else, and considering I know you started posting around the time that was happening my only guess is that you've come across those final posts.
Why does a dog lick it's own balls? The common answer is "because it can".
Then I suggest you reword your post, because it comes across as nothing but trolling.
Granted there are a lot of cruise servers and a lot of them are pointless, but it is the right of the person setting it up to do as they see fit. They are not inconveniencing you in any way, shape, or form, as far as I can see.
If you don't like it, keep away.
You appear to be correct in that sense, however I did say "assuming that the university doesn't own the address space".
I did, however, make the completely incorrect assumption that it was it a different range (i.e. one the university didn't own), which was a bit of a mistake
(I've seen a lot of networks in iana reserved space recently, so I guess I jumped to conclusions :o)My apologies
I'm not necessarily disputing that, but it isn't a 100% valid setup (assuming that they don't own that legacy address space), /technically/ and very, very broadly speaking. There are all sorts of commentry that could be had on that, but it's very boring and isn't going to resolve your problem.
I'd try and have a friendly chat with the techies that run and support the network, over a beer or something, and see if there's a solution they can provide for you. Or you setup a VPN (or other form of tunnel) to play over.
It's not an LFS thing. It's a network thing.
I'm afraid the mods have no control over what happens in-game. The only people who can do anything about that are the developers
Sounds like you're lifting off too much iZE - you only need to lift off a little bit, as long as you're not hitting the limiter (or there abouts)
Something has changed. Most likely the "server pc" is still using a dynamically assigned IP address and this has changed, and you're now port forwarding to the wrong local IP. Double check the actual rules with the actual IP assigned to the "server pc".
I caught the last 20 minutes Fantastic battle and a pretty damn find pair of commentators - I shall have to ensure I catch it again!
Fantastic battle and a pretty damn find pair of commentators - I shall have to ensure I catch it again!You'll be very hard pushed to get someone to volunteer without any idea of what you want. It's a bit like signing a blank cheque.
tbh, it sounds like a knackered controller or knackered controller drivers. But considering that we don't know what you use that's a little hard to assume...
You also might find that you get more help if you give your threads a better subject, and you space out your post a tad.

Just to chip in, if you have a jailbroken iphone/itouch, you can use something like python (which is available and simplifies the process of creating graphicall programs) and distribute your own code for free via that.
Of course this does restrict your audience

lerts, you've crossed in spamming now.
Tell us what "mods" you are trying to use and perhaps we can help. The various procedures are different for the various different types of "mod", be it texture, insim/outsim/outgauge, or otherwise.
I'm not disputing that. I am disputing how this whining and bitch reoccurs over and over and over again.
No one is forcing you to read or reply. Ignore him if you do not want to deal with him. This is the crux of my issue with the "sun situation".
If you ignore him and his questions go unanswered, then he will be forced to search and learn. If he can't then maybe something will sink in.
The way in which people continually answer his questions, then moan and bitch when he doesn't "get it" is making this place a nasty place to post. I cannot for the life of me see this happening if we were all in the same room together. Would you really all sit there and go "haha, you're shit!"? Equally though the point that "you need to go and learn the BASICS before you can do everything" would also be hammered home to sun a lot more easily.
sun, you've been given the solution. Install the MySQL development libraries for .NET.
If you're unclear as to how to proceed either approach someone in private who uses .NET, or read up on that library and understand how to integrate it into your project.
It's been made clear that ignorance is no longer an excuse and you will get the same treatment as others who taunt you. The reason being that you are the other half of the problem.
No ban, but there are infractions. For both parties involved.
Responding in the way that people have to sun is half of the problem. I am fed up with saying this politely - if you aren't giving advice, and you only want to troll, **** off.
I'll remove all the crap from this thread in a few days time.

If you have any suggestions as to how to make it easier to read, whilst covering the concepts and basic knowledge of how to run and setup a server, then I'm all ears. If you do have any suggestions, please do feel free to PM me
I renamed the title of the thread after your comments and the other comments from other people. Prior to this it was "LFS DEDI HOST: Quick Tutorial".
No? I was trying to explain the behaviour of others? I was not angry, I wasn't insulting you. I wasn't insulting Blas. If anything you'll see that this thread is linked in the big detailed thread on set ... the configuration section and I'd already thanked blas in the second post?!
I simply don't understand this comment whatsoever??!
I think the issue is more the title than the content. This isn't so much a tutorial on the dedi host, but a brief notation on it's configuration.
Yes. The number of packets per second transmitted to each racer
