i do think there is a issue with how you have it all configured together.
i find your parameters strange. maybe this will help you a bit..


I have made a dir in my arma2 installation dir, i called it Server.

in that dir i have 2 main files. server.cfg and arma2.cfg
hence the startup parameter.

C:\......server.exe" -config=Server\server.cfg -cfg=Server\arma2.cfg -profiles=Server

now in that dir "Server" in your arma dir. you should make a dir called BattlEye

C:\path\ArmA II\server\BattlEye

put BEServer.cfg in that dir.

in your BEServer.cfg put

RConPassword MyPassword

if BEServer.dll isnt copyed there automaticly during serverstartup try copy it manualy
copy BEServer.dll there
from

C:\path\ArmA II\BattlEye

to

C:\path\ArmA II\server\BattlEye

hope this can help out a bit.

I've just downloaded the GUI 1.3 but there's no readme, do I just put the Arma2 rcon.exe in my client's Arma2 folder??

(BTW i've already created the necessary beserver.cfg with my rcon pasword in my remote server's profiles/battleye directory using Filezilla)

any help at all? stuck on 'could not connect' ad infinitum..

Well,
I allready manage the Rcon on my 2 servers.
You need to create beserver.cfg in the BE folder ON THE SERVER. Then you need to run the RCON.exe or the RCON Gui from your PC (anywhere you have rights). I am running windows7 and needed to set compatibility for WinXP SP3. After that I could manage my both servers (windows and linux) same way.

Is it a Linux server? If so, you have to place the beserver.cfg in your root or expansion BattlEye folder.

no it's a windows server. my (failed) setup is:

server uses -profiles switch. So I used Filezilla to create a text file called BEServer.cfg in the server's profiles/Battleye folder. The text file contains only RConPassword ******

I then tried to run the GUi from my desktop, entered server's ip and port = could not connect.

Did you restart the server?

[Mandrake5]

yes several times... still not working

Battleye is working perfectly on the server itself though...

[$able]

Did you try the official BE RCon tool as well?

Also, what is your server's command line?
