Anybody knows if the command #kickban ID/playername works?
Afaik we had a command in the past to ban players. The #kick ID will only temp. kick the player of the server but not include him in the banlist (afaik). I was beeing told i should use the #kickban ID command but didn't (luckly) had the opertunity to use it. Since i couldn't find it in the list of official commands, i was wondering...(#ban ID didn't worked).

I believe you need to create a ban.txt in the root of your arma application folder. See Banning (http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Dedicated_Server#Banning) in the Biki.

Hopefully that will be made automatically in a dedicated server patch :S

Cant be too hard to make it spawn a ban.txt automatically?

Does anyone know how to get the IP nr from the ppl that connect to my dedi server?? So if they make truble i just block thier IP in my firewall?? Maybe a diffrent program or sumthing the reg all connection??

And if sumone knows a script for auto kick players if thier ping is to high plz tell me how. It was better in OFP because then u saw all ppls ping in the lobby but now when they can join in at anytime its harder. I know Bf2 has it and there must be a way here to but i dont know how. Been searching for weeks now.. http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/help.gif

Just received the link of the NEW ArmA server commands (need to be Admin) regarding the ban, kick and userlist.

hej, does anyone know if some new commands will be added?

like:

#open
#close

for open and close the server during a running game, cause now u just can close the server at the lobby, but cause of the JIP often the player number drops during a game and then u got no chance to open the server anymore...

[DaSquade]

You mean #lock and #unlock...
Afaik (checked wiki) this isn't availible, but that would be indeed a very handy command, especially for CoOp.
I hope BIS picks this up (if not already inplanted under different command) http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/smile_o.gif .

I saw these new ArmA admin commands and was wondering how they are implemented as the #userlist and #kick function already carry out these 2 same functions?

#exec users Show a List of the connected players
#exec kick ID Allows you to kick the player ID
#exec ban ID Allows you to ban the player ID

and what is the context/syntax and medium they are used in?

i too am intrigued by the ban command

does this add a name to your ban.txt, and does this actually ban by player ID or server session ID as there seems to be 2 completely different ID's used each time a player connects.

am i too assume there is an #exec unban ID command, or is this some irreversible perma ban???

[Max Power]

automatically it puts the player id into the ban.txt. this means it bans all demo users if you ban a demo user, since all of their ids are 999. The act of banning creates a ban.txt automatically.

If you are running a client server you are automatically the admin and can administrate using the playerlist and your regular game controls. If you are using a dedicated server, you can log in as admin using the #login command.

Would anyone have a working example of how these "#exec" commands are used?

[Deady]

join the game,
either vote yourself admin or login as admin,
type #userlist
get the number of the player you dont like (say 8)
type #exec ban 8

they get added to ban.txt by the game.
