New Server/WebAdmin Features in v1.065

[FreeMan]

What's the setting for manual reloads?

[Zetsumei]

its not a server forced setting every user can tick it on in their configuration file. Its a user setting. Its under the game tab i think (thesame tab where you can set the auto vehicle trottle)

Thanks, somehow I forgot it was a client setting.

I did try removing the Reserve Slots mutator but Im not sure what the DMMUTATOR is exactly. I only see the word "DMMUTATOR" in the game information when Im looking at other servers before I join, in the lower left hand corner. That area also shows what kind of settings you have running on your server etc.

I removed the reserve Slots mutator and nothing changed. I did not remove the spam message mutator, I think it is called SERVEREXT or something like that.

To the comment above about the cache on my browser, I have done that and I have tried other computers. Good thought though. THanks anyway.

I have tried disabling mutators as well. None are enabled in the webadmin settings.

I am considering going to take out any files I added for mutators and take it out of my ro.ini file. I wish I had kept better track of what I was adding, overwriting, and changing when adding these "mutators". I almost wish I could get a fresh download without losing all the maps and redirect settings. Mmmm, perhaps I can though.........

copy your redorchestra.ini file

then delete your redorchestra system folder of your server

then run the hlds update tool again

then place the redorchestra.ini file back

Arggh,

Thanks for the tip, did it and no change. My next option seriously is going to go with a fresh load and reload all the files, maps, redirect, etc. I dont want to spend a weekend doing that.

I would rather live without the session ban for right now.....

Is it normal for the WI to show up with UT pictures instead of RO pictures in the headline?
If I remember correctly it used to show RO pictures before the latest update.
And silentadminlogin also doesn't seem to work. Everything else does.

[Zetsumei]

its adminloginsilent not silentadminlogin

and someone messed up the pictures of webadmin when they remade some new features. A small trivial error.

[GS_Schimpf]

I know it should read adminloginsilent, nevertheless it doesn't work! We have 2 servers running and it doesn't work for both of them.

[Zetsumei]

are you sure you tried it correct works on my server...

adminloginsilent adminusername adminpassword
and then something like
admin kickban username

you wont get a notification if you logged in :P nor logged out :P

Perhaps a linux thing?

[GS_Schimpf]

We are running linux and pT guys also do, as far as I know. So a linux issue could be possible. Can someone confirm this?

[aceto]

as far as i know the silentlogin works on our linux-box.
but we dont get the logout working (which causes forced mapchanges sometimes)

[ro50pc]

Just to follow up, I never got the "session ban" option to show up in my webadmin. I ended up doing a clean reload on the server, its there now.

Also, since I see others have posted that their "adminloginsilent" option is not working, I wanted to say it doesnt do anything for me.

I do have the admin login silent check box checked in the admin and all that does is stop the message "so and so has logged in admin" or whatever but my name is still in white letters showing everyone that I am logged in as admin. Perhaps this is all "adminloginsilent" does.

I can say "adminloginsilent" doesnt work for me because once I type it I try and add bots or adminsay something and nothing happens. Oh well.

Thanks for the ideas to solve the session ban anyhow.

[ro50pc]

Anyone who couldnt get the adminloginsilent command to work....get it to work?

[Zetsumei]

Ok found the a bug, been fiddling around with it.

It can't read the username and password from xadmin.ini or atleast doesn't so if you use xadmin it wont work. And because everyone sane uses xadmin this feature probably doesn't work will report the bug.

It works perfectly on systems using the adminname and password set in the main ini file. But if you setup xadmin it wont read it from the ini file so you cant set the adminlogin for the silent admin there and use xadmin for webadmin.

atleast that is what i think,
it didn't work on the win 2003 server box where we use xadmin
but it worked on the previous box where we didn't use it
and it works on my own computer when i start a listen server.

[ro50pc]

Roger that. Thanks for the reply.

Can I set the admins to be able to session ban and not permanently ban?

I can pick kick, ban, or both but I can't have a person who can session ban but not permanently ban? Or how can I set it so I can have levels of admins with this ability?

LVL1 admin - kick
LVL2 - kick, session ban
LVL3 - kick, session ban, permanently ban
