When you relax the guid (depending on number) you make it to where anyone can get on and play.Which causes the issue if someone has cheated then they can just make another cd key and rejoin.

From the manual

PB_SV_GUIDRelax [0-7]

Defaults to 0; Controls PunkBuster's kicking behavior related to GUIDS; A Value of 1 means PB will not kick for UNKN (Unknown) GUIDs; A Value of 2 means PB will not kick for WRONGIP GUIDs (these are GUIDS which are valid but not from the IP Address the player is connecting from); A Value of 4 means PB will not kick for DUPLICATE GUIDs; These values (1, 2 and 4) can be combined to achieve the desired behavior

 

What this means:

0 = Will kick for ALL
1 = Will not kick UNKNown GUIDS
2 = Will not kick for wrong IP addresses
3 = Will not kick for UNKNown GUIDS and wrong IP addresses
4 = Will not kick for DUPlicate GUIDS
5 = Will not kick for UNKNown GUIDS and DUPlicate GUIDS
6 = Will not kick for wrong IP addresses and DUPlicate GUIDS
7 = Will not kick for UNKNown GUIDS, wrong IP addresses, and DUPlicate GUIDS

Purely the choice of the server admin what guidrelax setting to use, but anything other than 0 also opens the door for the bad guys as well.

It's a point worth remembering :)

No.

 

You simply can't connect to a q3 engine server (same engine, same old issue; google quake or q3 not sof2) from the same IP/port.

That includes the Master/Auth Server that is needed to browse online gameservers. Only i wonder which master server for sof2? Anyway:

 

"Application: Quake III

Notes: Each computer uses a different port number. Add 1 for each player starting with 27660.

Ports: 27660 (+1 for each player)"

 

 

Try to start the game with a windos-shortcut or .bat

 

PC1: Drive:\Path\Game.exe +set net_port 27660

 

PC2: Drive:\Path\Game.exe +set net_port 27661
