Hullo.
I am a newbie at server making and need some help.
So far i have created a CTF server, have the settings, and can open it in LAN (i'm working on the port forwarding thing and i don't think that i need any help besides arma wiki on that)
Anyway i just set up authentication and my problem is the admin pass.
In my settings.cfg file i have
ADMIN_PASS moo *moo is just a pass im using here.
and it says that the pass changed but wen i go to my server and type
/login moo
it says invalid URI. But in wiki it says that it should work.
im pretty sure that I have to put somthang else in my settings.cfg file. If you need anymore info just yell.
Administration help.
Re: Administration help.
It looks like you compiled your server with our new authentication system enabled; with that, the insecure ADMIN_PASS method no longer works (I'll disable the setting now). Instead, use
Then login with "/login admin@", entering 'moo' at the password line in the dialog that pops up.
(Or, alternatively:
then login with "/login francis@forums" and enter the password of your forum account in the password dialog. You can store francis@forums resp. admin@ in the "Global ID" field of your player setup, then you just have to say "/login" or use the "Authenticate" menu item (or enable auto login) to initiate the procedure.
Code: Select all
local_user admin moo
user_level admin@ 0
trust_lan 1
(Or, alternatively:
Code: Select all
user_level Francis@forums 0
trust_lan 1
global_id 1
