pbsv.cfg pbsv.cfg for Server Admins Universal

[BestNoob]

I forgot about to share this with you guys here ... im sorry. I worked on this to get best settings for my PB Protected Servers.

PunkBuster without configuration is just a lame dog but you can give it i a good bite with this config + MD5 Tool

*Updated

Added some infos for LINUX Servers:

 

On Linux servers you have to do the same steps but additionally copy your PunkBuster folder to "/cod4server/.callofduty4/pb/" If you dont set basepath and homepath it is creating a hidden folder (instead of the Windows AppData) but this folder is missing the needed pb files.

    pb_sv_writecfg
    pb_sv_writecfg pbucon.use
    pb_sv_restart (wait 30 seconds until pb has been restarted)
