[ASK] signing key pbo

[azams 1]

Hi all,

I have a server and I want to try to put my addons on the server.

I create the signature key using this command :

C:\bikey>DSCreateKey.exe AZAMS

and pack the addon folder using this step :

1. Open BINPbo

2. Addon source directory : c:\tni\tni

3. Destination directory : c:\tni\results

4. Clear temp folder = checked

5. I click the options

6. Path to signature file : c:\bikey\AZAMS.biprivatekey

7. press OK

8. create signature = checked

9. binarize = checked

10. press Pack

CLIENT : and i put @tni.pbo and tni.pbo.AZAMS.bisign in this folder : C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Arma 3\@tni\addons

SERVER : i put key AZAMS.bikey on folder keys in root Arma 3 folder.

but when i try to join the server i always kicked out from the server. It said the key doesnt match with the server.

Is there any missing step?

@tni.pbo and tni.pbo.AZAMS.bisign

[azams 1]

is it a linux server? what does the rpt log of both client and server say?

[azams 1]

no it isnt. its a windows server.

i tried to put another addon which is downloaded from armaholic and it works fine. but when i put my addon i got kicked.

i think there's something missing when signing the key.

btw, here is the warning message from client rpt.

Warning Message: Files "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\@tni\addons\tni.pbo" are not signed by a key accepted by this server. To play on this server, remove listed files or install additional accepted keys.

did you verify with DSCheckSignatures.exe?

did you make sure to get the latest version of DSUtils?

[azams 1]

i dont know how to use DSCheckSignatures.exe and i'm not seeing everyone using this file on their tutorial.

I just updated the tools and it works!! Thank you so much .kju.

Problem Solved. :D
