We recently wiped out server from Windows 2003 and installed Windows 2008 R2

 

Currently using FireDaemon to launch our games as we always have. Something I noticed, we were not streaming. So I set the services to launch under the Administrator, now we see that we are streaming.

 

However the problem remains. We are using the PBSV config file that you would find in the Master Config Index. Punkbuster is installed, services check out ok.

 

#1 Svlogs are not being created

 

#2 PBBANS.DAT file is not being updated - My last update was on October 25, 2011 when I shut the server down to upgrade to 2008.

 

#3 Scrolling messages via the PBSV.CFG file are not being executed.

 

So has anyone had any problems with Windows 2008 and punkbuster?

 

It is not Fire Daemon - I created a BF2 server icon on the desktop and ran that and still not able to do those 3 things mentioned above.

 

Any help will be appreciated, thanks!

Windows 2008 has a more advanced firewall than 2003.

Have you allowed UDP traffic to the game server port from ports 40000-50000 ?
