I have my own server, and it's working fine, and I love the World of Minecraft Client to let me fly and such. My problem is, when I try to log into my own server (from the same computer, or any other computer on the network), it gives me the "illegal name" problem that seems to be a problem when verify names is set to "true." I followed the instructions on the minecraft.net forum to fix this through the web browser ( http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?id=2085 ), but I really would like to be able to fly and run on my own server when home so I can patrol for griefers. Has anyone come up with a solution to this problem that I can implement? Does anyone else have this problem on the client, or am I alone? Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Why can't you turn verify names off? What does it do?

Users can come on your server

Users can come on your server with false names, probably impersonating staff.
