0002745: Change default authentication server cvar to official auth server.
Now that the authentication server is live, I think it's a good idea to change the default authhostname to auth.zandronum.com:16666. Even better if the default port was switched to 16666 at the same time so the port can be omitted.

There are valid reasons for changing this, like there are occasionally valid reasons for changing the master server, but the official auth server should serve hosts needs 99% of the time.
No tags attached.

using'https://www.dropbox.com/s/47tfog9di3lorlg/zandronum-3.0-r160702-1232-b244a48-windows.zip?dl=0 [^]' fresh inis correctly have authhostname set to "auth.zandronum.com:16666", but existing inis do not

how do people feel about existing inis having their authhostname overwritten? how about only if authhostname is blank? (incase they prefer to use a non official auth server)

It's been a few months and no one really seems to mind the behavior. I say we simply leave it as is and if anyone has any issues with authhostname with their pre-existing ini, we'll just tell him to change it to auth.zandronum.com:16666

Also, in most cases authhostname isn't left blank at least in 2.1.2 it seems to default to localhost (at least mine did).
