ok. I have searched all through these forums for hints on how to get rcon working properly. And it's not working. None of what has been suggested, that I can find, is working.

I am starting the server with this command line:"C:Program FilesEA GAMESMOHAAMOHAA.exe" +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg

My server.cfg looks as so:
sv_hostname "OFFICIAL STNY MOHAA 1.1"
sv_maplist "obj/obj_team1 obj/obj_team2 obj/obj_team3 obj/obj_team4"

ui_teamdamage "0"
ui_timelimit "30"
ui_fraglimit "5"

rconPassword "xxxxx"

set g_minGameClients "1"

set sv_maxclients "32"
set g_inactivity "180"
set g_inactiveKick 300

set sv_allowDownload "0"
set timelimit "30"


set g_gametype 4
set g_gametypestring "Objective Based Match"
map obj/obj_team3

net_noipx 1
net_port 12203


Then in game i try using rcon commands and nothing happens. The console doesn't even tell me that the command fail's. It just prints a clear line. I have setup many quake3 servers and this is nothing like it should be. I have even tried using "+set rconpassword "password" in the command line and it will not work. Any help would be appreciated.

Also. The dedicated I have up now has been packed 32players since I got it up and running. I can not even get on my own server to play because I can not kick a player or set private clients. How is private clients setup in mohaa?

Lastly...when I try to setup a second server, on the same machine...it's more then capable of running a second 32 player server, I get crosstalk from both server's to each other. It's like they are both listening/broadcasting on the same port's. Even though I have set both server's on different ports. Is there something I am missing from mohaa's difficult dedicated server setup?!

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

Tom

h3rb,

You can check out my thread here, for your config/rcon answers.
http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/For...ML/001859.html

Your main problem in what you've posted is the QUOTES on some of the values for you CVAR's, you should ONLY have quotes around STRING values, values that print text (like hostname for example).

whatever your password is:

rconPassword "xxxxx"

remove the "" quotes and it should work. You're on the right track with all of the syntax, except for the quotes. Again, see my thread for detailed info.

also regarding rcon, be sure you are have ui_console 1 in your command line, otherwise you'll simply be using a chat window. There is no confirmation that you have successfully entered the correct password, just a return to a blank line, it'll only tell you if you've entered it incorrectly. After entering your password, try typing RCON STATUS and see if it list the players on your server, if it does, you know it worked.

I also have info on how to automatically log yourself into your server as soon as you launch your MOH client.

Side note:
For these particular cvars that you have in your .CFG:

ui_teamdamage "0"
ui_timelimit "30"
ui_fraglimit "5"

Should read:
teamdamage 0
timelimit 30
fraglimit 5

Drop the ui_ , what the ui_ does is set the default values displayed in the menus when you start a server from the in-game multiplayer room (non command line server).
Then drop the quotes.

Hope this helps and good luck !

Also, if you post a reply, please post it in the thread that I am linking you to above, that way everyone can see what's going on and possibly answer their own questions as well, keeping everything in one place.

THANKS !
