I'll just mention here that we are in DIRE need of an update to the NukeSentinel(tm) Manual! We just have not had the time nor the resources to do this. So much has been added, improved, etc. since the original was published and, I know this is a poor excuse  , but we've really been tied up with RavenNuke(tm) 
The upgraded manual does not have to stay in the current form. But, we do need a dedicated volunteer! |

Why don't we move it into a Wiki so we can distribute the workload? I know, you are tired of hearing me say that. lol. |

@Susann
Thnx again, editted the 127.0.0.0 range as well.
@Raven
Hehe jah whats up with that, in the readme i see all kinds of links refering to ravennuke.com
but the program itself links to nukescripts.com at a lot of points, it seems a bit.. well.. fragmented 
The Readme f.e. fails to mention that you have to upload the 'nsnst_installer' -folder as well. Ke i just uploaded anyway but missing nevertheless.
@Montego
Wiki's are nice ^^
but you really need someone to keep an eye on it from time to time, dont know if you guys have time for that either  |

<HistoryLesson>
Once upon a time, long ago (2004) in another time and in a galaxy far far away, I created a Hack Alert script -> and the forum for it at
It quickly became popular and I had started developing plans for a much broader scope. Then, somewhere along the line, Bob Marion (a professional acquaintance at the time) contacted me for permission to include some of my logic in a script that he was writing, which of course I approved. Bob and I started talking about our separate plans and came up with the brilliant idea of cooperation, corroboration, collaboration, and let's not forget collusion ! So we started our project. Chatserv also donated some code when we started. We originally named the product Sentinel but we were contacted not too long afterwards by another company that owned the name and they weren't happy with us using it so we modified it to NukeSentinel(tm). Support and development was becoming a full time job at the beginning and Bob and I were trying to keep up with it all. He had a support forum at the time and I had a support forum. The q's&a's were being duplicated , etc. and we were both developing and trying to stay in sync with each other. We both were offering downloads and enhancements, once again trying to stay in sync. This was getting out of hand so we decided that I (my site) would be the focal point for support and Bob (his site) would be the focal point for distribution. Due to all the work I was involved in at the time we also decided that Bob would be the focal point for all programming and development regardless of where the ideas/code came from. We still continue with this operational model. Bob develops, I develop, others develop. Most code passes through my site in one way or another and then I pass it onto Bob for inclusion in a future release. So, we are where we are. That's why you see what may appear to be fragmentation/disorganization in the documentation. Also, the documentation was put together from more than one source, again adding to the appearance of fragmentation/disorganization.

Is the NukeSentinel Manual available for download any more? Wouldn't mind taking a look at it and see if it is something that I could work on updating. Maybe beyond my capabilities, but would like to look at it and see. |

Great! I'm glad you accepted my offer. You get 2 hours of paid vacation to anywhere w/i your house. The job comes with all of the attitude, sarcasm, help, and egoism (yes, egoism) that we can give you. Oh look - here comes some of that right now !
I will now give you the secret basic/generic procedural steps for coming up to speed quickly with/on NukeSentinel(tm) and updating the manual.
   
Sorry, I couldn't resist it 
Seriously, these are the REAL steps. Let us know how else we might help you!
