ARMA 3 INSLimitedAdmin: Anti-Hacking Addon

[jacob88 10]

Greeting map designers and server administrators!

Since release, ARMA 3 has been completely open to hackers, with no provided method of detecting them.

That changes today!

Introducing INSLimitedAdmin a "limited" Antihack detector currently in development but already jam packed with features!

This ServerSide-Addon is a port of my scripted version found here: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?155354-ARMA-3-INSLimitedAdmin-Anti-Hacking-Script

INSLimitedAdmin By jacob88

- Features

- Detects a "Limited" variety of Hacks

- Locks Hackers games forcing them to ALT+F4

- Writes a record of the players name and UID to server RPT when player connects

- Writes a record of the Hackers name and UID to server RPT when Anti-Hacks are triggered

- Warns other players on the server via hint and chat when Anti-Hacks are triggered

- Server admins can run their own code via serverexe.sqf in INSLimitedAdminSettings folder

Success!

Update 1.1

[RIP3roni 10]

My server just got raped, so I am testing this version out right now :D Let you know how it goes.

Update: Looks Functional ;D

Any idea what's up with the missing mod error? I already have CBA_A3 as instructed

Update: No Error now. Weird but it works :D

The error is because the client does not have CBA_A3 installed but the server does.

This will not effect the addon or the server.

I will try find a method of disabling the warning.

DL link down?

I am interested in this future "- Global ban database through MYSQL" feature or the Admin console.

Just checked the download link and its working fine.

[Predator.v2 10]

I have just tried it out on another place (coffee shop wlan) with my laptop and it still doesn't work for me...

Maybe some kind of regional lock? I am from germany..

Any chance to not have to use cba ??

Getting a weird error. Happens every 5 minutes or so. Started occuring since the addon.

Here's a copy of the lines surrounding the error.

do you have messages in your server.cfg? that error sounds like it is looking for something that isnt there

[RIP3roni 10]

Here's my config to confirm. You you don't see anything wrong either, I want to mention if maybe the antihacks are having an issue with Proving Grounds. Seems like maybe it wants to announce that I'm doing something I shouldn't. Has anyone else got this running with the new Kits, Wasteland w/ includes proving grounds for admins? Let me know if anyone can think of anything.

You know what, after copying and pasting that above, I noticed that the spacing before the messages was off. I belive it was "tab" spaced instead of using "spaces" testing now, will confirm.

---------- Post added at 22:48 ---------- Previous post was at 21:50 ----------

Ok so it's the message for the side or main mission in the Mission File. Anti-Hack is somehow interfering with it. Any ways for me to debug further? I removed the antihack and the errors go away

The addon has to use CBA_A3 in order to load the script on boot.

I will be on the lookout for other stock methods not requiring CBA_A3.

Ah the immediate error I would notice is that the mission your using, has an array name also used in my addon (serverMessage).

I will solve this later today by switching to more unique array names with my next release.

[RIP3roni 10]

Awesome, I rolled back to your scripted version for now. I narrowed it down to the sidebar message when mission notices load in Wasteland such as "Main Objective in 10 Minutes". I'll be more then happy to test it for you ;D

[bob1975 10]

yeah its gonna be hard trying to get people to download cba_a3 i guess thats why the stable version of steam came out lol

The client does not need to download CBA_A3 only the server needs it.

[RIP3roni 10]

Any update on renaming that array jacob?

[mariodu62 5]

issue with this function. public variable can't be a private variable.

publicVariable ""_playermessage"";

[RIP3roni 10]

Jacob, I'm debating renaming the array myself. If I replace the name in all files of the mod, am I at risk of buggering anything else?

[jacob88 10]

Jacob, I'm debating renaming the array myself. If I replace the name in all files of the mod, am I at risk of buggering anything else?

Updated now.

Sorry for the delay, I'm currently trying to run three ARMA related projects on my own.

As for editing the code yourself, your more than welcome to modify the addon scripts for your

own server's use on condition of not rebranding my work as your own.

Hello jacob88,

I'm just interesting: does your script can normally work with Arma 2 servers?

[jacob88 10]

Hello jacob88,

I'm just interesting: does your script can normally work with Arma 2 servers?

Hi Spayker, unfortunately INSLimitedAdmin uses some commands only found in ARMA 3 and is incompatible with ARMA 2.

However, you are free to edit my addon to suite your individual needs on condition that it is for private use,

is not distributed and I am still given credit for my work.

Hope this helps.

[Justin_Smith 10]

Hey Jacob88,

I'm going to send you a message in Private Message. Found a few things for suggestions and bugs.
