hi bloodrunner :) seeing as you have no ssh access and can not "cd" to your pbweb.x86 to update your server PB, means you are reliant on your providers webadmin pbupdate button .. i just took another look at your pb folder and noticed that the pbweb.x86 they have placed on your server was read only .. so no matter how many times you pressed the pbupdate button nothing was happening .. i have made the pbweb.x86 executable so now maybe you will get something positive happening ... for updating PB on your own pc i would recommend pbsetup which is a lot more user friendly than pbweb and can be run from anywhere on your pc .. try it out .. you can get it here click me :) **edit** hope you dont mind bloodrunner but i just spent 6 mins on your clanwarz webadmin and ftp .. i deleted the pb folder and disabled pb in your config_mp_server.cfg .. i restarted the server as vanilla cod2 then enabled pb and watched a nice fresh pb install appear .. i then enabled pam mod ..because thats what was on it when i started. your server pb info now reads: ^3PunkBuster Server: PunkBuster Server (v1.108 | A1302 C1.203) Enabled this is what it should be :) why clanwarz tech support could not do this beats me .. enjoy your server and the rest of your day m8 p.s. streaming nicely to the pbbans repository as well :D

get in touch with (TSS)Hidinfury .. he is pbbans AAO expert and will help you out for a coookie or 2 ..preferably chocolate :)

hi bloodrunner ..your hosting company (clanwarz) is quite possibly the worst i have ever come across for technical support .. when they said there was nothing they could do to get your pb working and for you to contact PB,you kindly trusted me with your ftp password .. all i did was remove the pb folder and restarted your server .. this allowed the server to find the pb_sv_homepath automatically .. problem solved ^3PunkBuster Server: Home Path is /home/cod2-vasquez/cod2-server/pb/ i also found another pbsvlog.cfg tucked away inside a folder with details from psb in it .. now if you did not put it there that means your server host did >> without your permission this post will help show you what you can access from our main web page click me all current versions of pb for all pb supported games can be found here click me typing /rcon pb_sv_ver displays whats running on your server from evenbalance site - Call of Duty 2 server:v1.108 client:v1.203 A1302 from your server - ^3PunkBuster Server: PunkBuster Server (v1.108 | A1302 C1.216) Enabled your hosting company actually created the problems you had in the first place and it seems obvious to me that they do what they can to make it difficuilt for anyone to stream anywhere else other than psb .. judging by what your experiencing Clanwarz Gaming Servers need a good kick up the arse and a reminder of an age old adage .. the customer is always right

hey Juden .. welcome to the quality anti cheat site m8 :) to find your pb folder use hlsw as a remote admin tool, and put this command in the console window and press the send button: pb_sv_homepath normally to access files on your server via ftp you will need a ftp client .. there are plenty of free ones to choose from :) login and password is normally passed to you by your hosting company .. admin work takes a lot of learning but with the right tools it can be a hell of a lot easier. hlsw can be downloaded from here click me and its free i wrote a tutorial on how to set up and use hlsw .. you can find it here click me enjoy :)

any staff member m8 :) just out of curiosity ..why did you choose to stream cod2 to psb ?

aimbot at the very least :( if this had of been submitted by an admin from a streaming server the lamer would be on our master ban index now .. time for streaming maybe my old friend :) take a look here: http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showforum=347

no probs RedKilla,thats what we are here for m8 .. as long as you have learned something from it all and your server is streaming to us actually gives me the "feel good" factor :) .. hopefully you now feel confident enough to post help and advice to others on the forums because in my eyes we are all members of one huge clan .. PBBans :D

spread the word :P great to see that all our private lessons have not been in vain :D happy hunting

Why am I getting kicked for PB Guid Auth: UNKN? The "PB GUID AUTH: UNKN" kicking means that your Game client is not sending a valid cdkey to Raven's cdkey auth server. Usually this is due to a problem with your cdkey entry. Exit SoF2 and then use your Windows explorer program to find the "base\mp" folder where SoF2 is installed on your system and delete the file called sof2key. Launch SoF2 directly and before you get to the game's main menu, it should ask you to enter your cdkey. If this does not fix the problem, then perhaps there is some type of firewall or security software blocking your game's communication to Raven's cdkey auth server. Be sure that UDP port 20112 is open for clear communication if you have a firewall or some type of security software. If you are running a SoF2 dedicated server with PB on your own PC or in your LAN and have internet connection on this server, you have to use the pb_sv_lanmask setting added since PB Server v1.039 as described in our documentation. If you do not use this you will be kicked. The reason is that when you connect to a LAN game your game client does not send any information to the Auth Server. However, the PB Server will contact the Auth Server and find that your GUID is unknown. As of PB Client 1.043, we have a new PB command called pb_cdkeyver which forces PB to send a Cdkey Authorize packet to Raven's Cdkey Auth Server for players who get GUID UNKN on PB Servers. Try entering /pb_cdkeyver into your console before joining a server to see if that helps. Note: A cdkey is only valid if you bought the game and have a cdkey on your cd-case! Using a cdkey generator will allow you to overcome the checksum check within SoF2, stating that your cdkey is valid - it is only valid for single player though and will not allow you to play on the internet. http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=16270

at least thats one thing cod2 players and admins have plenty of practise at :P

sorted :)

first the announcement: click me when your game appears here click me we will take a look at what support we can offer :)

sorry AurAL .. guess i should have checked first m8 :wub:

top 3 of the latest 20 lolword spreads and your server will get a hell of a lot more decent players and a lot less hackers :) welcome to the club

gotta love worldlingo.com :unsure:

hi AurAL :) the topic in one of our irc channels: * Topic is 'cod2 linux binaries are not official ones and the autopbss facility aint working with them //cod2 guid's obtained from linux servers are 31 characters in length - hopefully the official release will cure this prob' as a workaround you can manually set up the taking of pbss using the task command: PB_SV_Task 0 30 PB_SV_GetSS slot# (this will take a pbss from the specified slot # every 30secs) you have to individually enter each task dependant on the number of slots your server has .. to check that the command has worked you can type PB_SV_TList to view them you can then enter the PB_SV_SsPath command: If specified (default is "" empty), PB will write captured screen shot images obtained from connected players to this alternate location, this can be a network share or some other location where you would prefer to place screen shot images and the "helper" htm hopefully IW and Activision will get their act together pdq and release a fix so we can all enjoy the benefits that a fully working PB gives to server admins, and coupled with the PBans Master Config Index will ensure as clean a gaming environment as we can provide :)

suggest you take this up with the server admin .. nothing to do with PBBans looks like a local ban has been applied

google is your friend :) click me

somehow this information: pb_sv_AliasMax pb_sv_aliasmaxenforce pb_sv_USessionLimit pb_sv_UConTimeout is overwriting the info in the pbsvlog.cfg you are uploading/creating, after a certain amount of time. so you are ending up with a pbsvlog.cfg that has this in it: pb_sv_AliasMax XXXX //[remote_log_username] pb_sv_aliasmaxenforce XXXX //[remote_log_password] pb_sv_USessionLimit 63.171.64.22 //[remote_log_address] pb_sv_UConTimeout 24389 //[remote_log_port] :unsure: your pbsvlog.cfg should contain: pb_sv_LogUser "XXXX" //[remote_log_username] pb_sv_LogPw "XXXX" //[remote_log_password] pb_sv_LogAddr "63.171.64.22" //[remote_log_address] pb_sv_LogPort 24389 //[remote_log_port] and nothing else pb_sv_AliasMax - setting defaults to 0 which means alias tracking is disabled; set to some value above 0 to enable and to specify how many aliases will be stored for each GUID; if the player uses more aliases than the max, the later ones will be ignored pb_sv_aliasmaxenforce defaults to 0; if set to 1, PB will kick players who try to use more than pb_sv_aliasmax number of aliases; also if set to 1, PB will warn joining players just like it does for extended ascii characters, etc. pb_sv_usessionlimit setting determines how many concurrent PB UCON sessions are allowed to be active at any point in time pb_sv_ucontimeout setting determines the length of the timeout period in seconds (default is 300). either you or your gsp need to find out whats causing this,then stamp on it,burn it,nuke it,scream at it, and all will be well :) fingers crossed eh lol

there is a lot more than 1 person being caught on our streaming servers,the problem is that most players,especially on linux servers generate a 31 character guid which changes when they enter other servers .. this renders the pb guid absolutely useless :( info: click me from what i understand the problem is the IW/Activision master auth server and is being worked on as a matter of urgency as we type. info: click me set sv_pure "1" // referenced files must be same as server afaik no

even i have the capability to spot falsified screenshots :D ban and ignore till he grows up

hi m8 .. idiots like this threaten dire things all the time .. nothing as funny as an internet hardman eh :) .. unless he has access to your 2 clan leaders personal computers and cd keys ban and ignore would be my next course of action as he is talking absolute crap :)

the streaming option is the best way to keep your server as clean as possible :) the 2 mins is the standard pb kick for a violation,when your streaming all those hack kicks will automatically turn into bans and be added to our Master Ban Index(MBI) .. and by running PBBans Master Config Index(MCI) in conjunction with PBBans MBI will ensure your server stays as clean as we can make it .. any probs with streaming just make a post in the PBBans streaming center here click me and someone will assist you asap .. we are also available on irc: quakenet network channel: #pbbans
