Server Op Priviledges Not Assigned

Bob_Da_Troll

In server.cfg on my server I have myself set as a server admin using my WON ID, but everytime I try to kick someone I get "You are not a server operator". Huh?

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks. <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo-->

Make sure you have the following line in your server.cfg:

rcon_password "YourRconPasswordHere"


When you are in the game you need to open the console and type:

rcon_password YourRconPasswordHere

Then you can issue rcon commands to the server from your client.

I'll try that, buddy. Thanks.

That didn't work. RCON doesn't have anything to do with a plug-in, does it?

No, its not a plugin.

I would assume by you saying, "in the server.cfg" you are reffering to the NS build in admin lines.

IE:

// List server op WON ids here, delimited by semi-colons (eg, "12345;23223;123123"). mp_authicons must be 1 for this to work.
mp_serverops ""
mp_authicons 1

If so, they dont have any fucntions for adming the server in them. That just simple puts an icon next to your name in NS. You must type "auth" in your clients console to activate the icon.

If your running admin_mod or something similar. They have there own config files, and don't use the server.cfg.

It wasn't made clear that you were using plugins. Please be more specific on what you have installed on your server and what you have tried already then we can help you better.

I'm not using any plugins. I hadn't heard of rcon before. I was typing "kick" in the console instead of rcon_kick (whatever). I had the necessary stuff in the server.cfg; I was apparently just screwing up the commands. I'll try this again.

From your client is;

rcon_password xxx -sets rcon pass
rcon status -full status output
rcon stat -clean status output
rcon kick (name/userid/wonid) -kicks a player.
rcon banid (name/userid/wonid) -bans a player
rcon writeid -saves wonid banlist to banned.cfg
rcon addip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -bans an ip or subnet
rcon writeip -saves ip banlist to listip.cfg

Thoose are the basic commands you will need to use.

I can use rcon status, etc. Can't kick or ban. No error is given; it simply won't allow me to do it.

I love Natural Selection; I hate the Half-Life engine.

Bob_Da_Troll

Anyone? Also is there a file I can WON IDs of cheating players in that will keep them banned from the server?
