Help with server
« on: June 01, 2008, 10:31:41 pm »
 >:(I got the server up and running but it wont set me to admin when i type !setadmin name lvl WTF i followed intructions and its pissing me off ahh  :tyrant:

Instead of passwords, administration rights are granted on a unique player
identifier called cl_guid.  Because of this, day to day administration
tasks (like !kick and !mute) can easily be shared among a server's regular
players without risking giving those players too much power or trusting
them with passwords.

"Getting started is pretty easy.  Just set g_admin to the name of the
configuration file you want to use (e.g. "admin.dat") and connect to
the server using the tremulous executable I've provided here:

http://trem.tjw.org/backport/

Once you're connected run the following in the your client console:

/rcon YOUR_RCON_PASS !setlevel YOUR_NAME 5

You are now a level 5 administrator and as such you have all possible g_admin
administration rights.  Do /!help or say !help in your client to learn more."

Gettin started its not fucking easy  >:( i typed /rcon pass and it says not rcon pass not set HOW DO I SET IT and yeah how do i make my self admins plx and thanks

Open up server.cfg and set an rcon password with
Code: [Select]
set rconpassword "<pass>"
changing <pass> to your desired password.

Are you running your server with the client or with the tremded?

FYI if your password is 12345 you would do "/rcon 12345 !setlevel dragoon 5". NVM this if that's what you're doing.

I don't think you'll be able to set the rconpassword with a server running on the client, you need the tremded for this (correct me if I'm wrong).
