I have a few questions regarding bans, I have a ban.txt on both my servers, with names and last 6 of guid on there, is that sufficent for bans? My PBBAN llooks lilke last time it was updated was 2005, I have put people in that ban.txt and they were still able to connect, any help on setting up a ban list that works would be greatly apprecieated.

 

Thanks!

you run a cod:uo server with punkbuster running - that tells me that you have a pb folder with all your pb stuff in it, including a pbbans.dat file - this is were all your bans are stored - names and a last 6 of a guid is not recommended and judging by what you posted the ban.txt is not very efficient :)

 

why use this command:

/banUser [name]

Bans a user by their ingame name. Writes their GUID to ban.txt

 

when you can use:

pb_sv_plist // this shows all complete pb guid's plus a lot more - followed by pb_sv_banguid [32 digit guid here]

 

a remote rcon tool such as hlsw would be invaluable to you and i have sent you a tutorial on its setup and use via forum pm - you can download the latest version of hlsw here click me

I use the HLC ingame Rcon, is that better for this then rcon4cod, also, to add them to the pbban I need all that info, the entire guid and what not?

 

I am waiting to her if my app will be reactivated, as I now have the admin accss needed for all 4 servers to stream.
