Banning persons in NAT

[Denisa]

I have a problem.Yesterday a boy came on my clan server and he tried to use cheats,but he couldn't. I tried to ban he because i didn't want cheats on my server but i couldn't find his IP ...
Question is : How Can I Find IP(s) With Nf. Admin Tool ?
Please tell me :)
Regards,Denisa

In the console window type 'status' or host_status_formatted', these will give you all the IP's of the players on your server.

Find the IP that you want then in the console window type

Code: Select all

sv_addip X 123.123.123.123

X is the amount of time you want to ban them.'0' is forever, 120 is 2 hours etc.

You will need to have this line in your server.cfg file to enable banning.

Code: Select all

sv_filterban 1 

This will ban players for as long as you run the server. For a permanent ban, to ban players you will need to make a banned players file and load that each time your server starts.

Aha ... Cool ... Thx 009

Add this line to your server.cfg

sv_serverlog on

Btw 009; the sv_filterban 1 is in my listenserver.cfg !?!?

Anyway when you put the serverlog on the game writes the logs of the games you started to the log folder which you can find in the C:\Program Files\EA Games\Nightfire\bond folder. You can look up ip's in there but you have to read your whole log for that.
Also when you type "status" in your NAT window it will write all ip's to your qconsole.log text document which you can also find in the bond folder. Maybe it does the same for the "host_status_formatted" command (when you are in game and use your console by using the rcon pw) but I'm not shuire of that.

Aha,Thx Zero ! Yesterday i wrote "status" and it worked :) Thank You very much ( 009 & Zero )

That's ok having it in the listenserver.cfg file. The listenserver.cfg is the same as the server.cfg file but is for normal server, the one you do in the Nightfire game screen.


The qconsole.log is if you have NUS installed (F2 or statusp)

[Denisa]

Hmmm...I have NUS too... and I tried Sunday to press F2 in NAT .. but it didn't work
Anyway..now I know what to do

[Blasty]

Well

I got in my server.BAT exec banned.cfg

and there all the banned ip's

Just make a file with notepad banned.cfg

typ in your server.cfg +exec banned.cfg

[Denisa]

Thank you kindly :)
Now i know what i have to do :D
