the pb web admin is a great tool to allow your admins kick/ban players without logging into cortex.

you can do this from the cortex rcon screen or by using the in-game rcon. you will not see antying returned to you as you enter these commands, so it seems like they are not working, but if entered correctly it will work.



***if doing this in-game from the console, log into your rcon "rcon login 'pass'" then put "rcon exec" before the commands below***

pb_sv_httpAddr xx.xx.xx.xx //this is the ipaddress of your game server

pb_sv_httpport xx //this is the port you want to use, ex: 88 or 8888. just be sure its not already in use.

pb_sv_httpKey 'yourkey' //this is like a password so only those who know it can connect

pb_sv_writecfg //this command permanantly writes the changes to a file that will load every time your server starts

pb_sv_restart //this restarts the punkbuster engine, enableing the changes you just made.


now connect to http://xx.xx.xx.xx:xx //replace the xx's with your ip and port you setup above, such as http://100.100.100.100:88


now your admins can use the pb web tool

That's awesome! Thanks!

Stickied.

Very nice, worked like a charm.

How about more than one server? I used a different IP for the server install, then used that IP and a different port for the pbweb admin.

When I enter the password (key) in, it goes to this http://127.0.0.1 for the IP.

Why?

This is great! I was looking for a way to get my admins web based kick/ban. What do I need to do to make the map change stuff work. Right now it only has ??? in the maplist.

I found the answer to the maplist.

Create a file called pbsvmaps.cfg.

Paste the following into it, save it, then restart PB. The maplist will now show up on your web tool.

NM, This Didn't Work. I also tried map mode # and it did not work either.
