SuperTaz Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Did you restart PB by issuing the "pb_sv_restart" command? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaydaX Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 restart the server which should remove pbns.dat so that pb makes a new dns file. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyno Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I'm now having this issue with our servers. The host has said that this is just one of those bugs which can crop up. How worried should I be if our servers are never able to contact evenbalance when we issue the pb_sv_update command? The response is always: PunkBuster Server: No Master Query Sent - DNS has not yet resolved for BF31.EVENBALANCE.COM Our host's explanation / fix action: This is an age-old problem with PB. Sometimes it eventually gets the update, and sometimes we have to force it with a server repair operation -- we keep the PB files in our base folder up-to-date with "PBSetup", which usually does a better job. I will also open a support ticket with EB to see if they have any additional suggestions but wanted to try here as well since others are having the exact same thing.

dyno Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Sorry for double post: I wanted to see if there was any way to globally poll / report the punkbuster version which is in use by the majority of game servers worldwide ? If my limited test pans out from the MSI, it looks like our host is one of the few who is using outdated punkbuster software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyno Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Still no response back from EvenBalance. I don't they care about the issue or how to resolve it. Bummer. My host also still has the issue: pb_sv_update PunkBuster Server: No Master Query Sent - DNS has not yet resolved for MASTER6.EVENBALANCE.COM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why your servers are not communicating with EB's master servers. Maybe it is a firewall issue on the server? It might clear the error if you restart your servers. Plus, it would help keep lag at a minimum too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyno Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Well, your servers are updated to the latest versions of PB. I don't know why your servers are not communicating with EB's master servers. Maybe it is a firewall issue on the server? It might clear the error if you restart your servers. Plus, it would help keep lag at a minimum too. The only reason they're updated is because we manually opened a ticket with our host, NFO, to repair / replace all files on each install. If no ticket was opened the servers would still be running the outdated version. When I went thought the MSI nearly all servers running outdated versions of PunkBuster were from the same host, the one I'm using, which makes me believe something is up with our host. The servers were just restarted this AM. =( I'll post again to the Even Balance ticket, maybe they'll feel generous and respond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTaz Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Not sure what is going on. I heard horror stories about NFO. I tried them once and never went back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyno Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 UPDATE / FIXED: It was due to our host not allowing the new EvenBalance IPs through their firewall -- YOU WERE RIGHT TAZ!!! So this was a GSP wide issue that has been resolved! It's too bad this wasn't identified sooner by the host. Who knows how many globally banned players connected and played on our servers when they infact shouldn't have been able to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
