If your running Windows Vista, do the following. To run PunkBuster under Windows Vista, you may need to run the game as an administrator. To do this, right click the icon you use to launch the game. Select "Properties", then the "Compatability" tab. From that tab, check the box labled "Run this program as an Administrator" and click ok.

There streaming now. :D

Would this be why two of my servers has not streamed for 1 day 12 hours and some odd minutes? I cant seem to get them to start streaming again........But i will. :D

I have SEVEN ET servers running 24/7. Five of these are 2.55 servers and two are 2.60B servers. Take a guess which servers stay full to capacity almost 24 hours a day............In case you dont know i will tell you.............its the 2.55 servers. The 2.60 servers stay empty almost 90 percent of the time.........they are a waste of my money, and if we didnt need them for WPL and TWL they would be gone. I would rather pay for a CONSTANTLY FULL 2.55 server anyday over a NEARLY EMPTY 2.60 server that does nothing but collect dust. There are thousands of 2.55 servers running, and the reason i dont update is NOT because im too damn lazy, its because me and the HUNDREDS of regular players who play on my servers are quiet happy with 2.55. And PunkBuster DOES include 2.55 when it sends out an update, tho usually it fucks the servers up.....2.55 and 2.60 for a few days till they release an update to fix their update.......you can tell when an update has been released because NO ONE can connect to your server till you type in pb_sv_guidrelax 1 till they fix the problem. So you can play on your super uber 2.60 not even half full servers all you want. I will stick to the 2.55 allways full noob servers as you say they are referred to.

The following is a email i got from my server provider. I was having the same trouble connecting, i tried it, and it worked..........i did it a few days ago. Please read the following if you have PunkBuster authorization problems: "Since the new punkbuster release 1.279 many have had and will have problems connecting to ET servers out there with the error message Failed to resolve etguidauth.evenbalance.com in your console. The cause of this is an outdated PBNS.DAT in your pb folder which comes from the previous version and is not automatically updated when you update your Punk Buster with pbweb.exe. If you connect to servers which are running the last PB Update and the client is running an old version, the PBNS.DAT avoids an GUID authentification (awaiting gamestate) because of operating with outdated data for the masterserver. (new: 192.246.40.62 - pbguidauth.idsoftware.com) To Fix This: * 1. Download pbsetup.exe from www.evenbalance.com * 2. Delete or rename the old pb-directory(pb folder where your ET is installed) and create a new one in which you copy the downloaded file. * 3. Start pbsetup.exe, follow the instructions and download a completely new pb-software. * 4. Connect to an updated server, and you will receive a new PBNS.DAT from that server when connected. * 5. Now your PBNS:DAT file should be up to date and you can connect to servers again as normal. Download-Link for pbsetup.exe: Even Balance Website" http://www.etgamer.net/content/view/50/

To get a players guid, bring down your console and type /rcon password pb_sv_plist and then look for his name in the list that is displayed.

Its fixed now. Server is streaming via REP and Hub. :D

Will Do Sir.

You stated that you dont own your server, you rent it..................so does 95 percent of the admins here. When you rent a server you have the right to stream to here if you so choose to. Who is your server provider? EDIT............................................................................ ........ Going by your servers ip address, im assuming you rent from Escaped Turkey, and i can 100 percent guarantee you that you have permission to stream to here. I am a moderator at Escaped Turkey, and i have set up about 70 or so of our customers servers there. If you want to, log into your acount there and send me a PM with your servers web panel info and i will get you set up to stream here in about 5 minutes, or send me a PM here with the info in it and i will get you going. Besides your servers web panel info, i will also need to know what you wish to use as a username and password for the pbbans info that will be in your servers pbsv.cfg. If you wish, you can go to Escaped Turkeys forum and ask anyone there about me. They will tell you that i would do nothing to harm your server in any way. Let me know if you want my help.

Rep and Hub Game: ET Clantag [bnB] I just added all the pbbans stuff to the server, restarted PB, so i now need it added to the MSI please. The username and password for the thing is the same as it is on my other server that streams here. :D I basically just copied and pasted the info from my first streaming server over to this one. :D

Hi Col. Its probably like i said in my reply to your PM.........the person has another pc in the house, deleted his guid on that pc, connected from that pc and got a new guid, or it was someone using that persons playing name so you would think it was the person you know.

Normally the server will give you that message when it encounters an error in your map cycle file. I have never experienced that before, but i will look for an answer to your problem and post back what i find.

Server IP: 70.42.43.8 Server Port : 27960 Game : Enemy Territory Clan Tag : [bnB] Co-Admin : N|A

Make It So Number One. :D
