A2OA: Server being Hacked Excessively

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

Currently, we have an ArmA 2 OA Server with a Takistan Life Mission on it. We have had a hacker on it quite frequently hacking the server with the spawning in of DMR's and making people shake. We believe we found the hacker in our logs as well as him admitting to us that he was the hacker.

 

Somehow, we've been experiencing exactly the same hack attacks with DMR's and mass disconnecting of clients although the previous hacker was banned via GUID and IP. Our immediate assumption was that the person is that sad that they went to the extent of buying a new a copy of A2 with a CD Key and using a VPN. We were totally incorrect. We have pass worded the server for trusted users and even staff at some points.

 

We have managed to add some addweapon and vehicle restrictions to the server to stop the spawning of guns. However, they have just turned to the use of spawning in money and ruining the server in more game changing ways. As a result, we have shut down the server temporarily to prevent people getting mass amounts of money.

 

Server Restrictions such as Remote Execution #3 have kicked a lot of members, as well as senior staff who would never do such a thing to our community. An Example of this is below:

 

Player #5 Akreal (**********GUID*********) has been kicked by BattlEye: RemoteExec Restriction #3

 

So our question is, how is this hacker able to hack our server when he's not on it or when it's pass worded? I have already googled around but I haven't found anything official on the subject from BI.

 

Can he run RE's without being on the server? Can a client be invisible to BattleEye, thus making him invisible to any Player List In-Game or on RCON's such as EPM?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Shaun.
