[quote="The Plague of Death":1ef34]he could do that, but the server is running remotely, a rented server, at least that is what i have gotten from his post. But to answer the question, without actually going into the srver to change the map, yes it is possible.

Open Spearhead.
Open console
type "rconaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" without the " where x = ip
type "rconpassword xxxxxxxxx" without the " where x = password
type "rcon map whichever map you want"


and walla, the map is now changed.[/quote:1ef34]


Excellent Idea, but if you you don't want to type this everytime you connect to the game create a rcon.cfg file, add the above lines to it.
rconaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
rconpassword xxxxxxxxx
Save the file as rcon.cfg and put the file in your MOH main folder.
Make sure when you load the game you have the rcon.cfg file run when you click on your shortcut. Do that by rightclicking on the shortcut, select properties and add this line to shortcut path: +exec rcon.cfg

Bulls Rcon guide on this site is really helpful, in setting it up:

Once you start the game you will be automatically connected to your server as an admin. Type in the console:
rcon status

and you'll see who's playing.
