Connect as a service

As beginning C++ programmer I tried to make my own services, but I can't find the protocol. Can someone help me?

(P.S. Is this the right forum? ;p )

You don't actually connect "as a service" you connect as a server (sending the PASS/SERVER [and possibly PROTOCTL]) commands. Unfortunately, the Unreal server<->server protocol is poorly documented. You can find some information in doc/technical but other than that, your best bet is to look at the code. Since you said you're a beginning programmer, looking at the code for Unreal and various services packages will probably be beneficial to you anyway...
