Players unable to join my server :(

[Mandrake5]

Been having big probs with many players joining then immediately disconnecting, while other players join fine. Server is running Combined Ops 1.52, no mods, have tried with sig signing on and off, makes no difference. I tried the latest beta arma2oaserver.exe, as well, still no good...

Please note, this is NOT a missing content issue, I know this 100% because whenever AO-standalone players try to join a CO mission they get kicked with the server message: 'you cannot play this mission, it is dependent upon downloadable content which has been deleted...etc'/,


This is a different problem, kind of like an immediate, mystery disconnect.
All I'm seeing is:
Player X connecting
Player X connected
Player X disconnected

no server message or anything

Any ideas?

The issue is not with the server but the OA mission itself.

Players who receive the message ''you cannot play this mission, it is dependent upon downloadable content which has been deleted...' do not have all the game objects neccessary to play the misson.

Basically the mission in question contains objects that are not part of the default OA install.

Yeah, that's not the problem - its the second kind of disconnect (with no error message) I don't understand.

I'll edit the first post to make the problem clearer.
