suma 8 Posted October 17, 2001 Ban list is in your user directory, and it is named ban.txt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angry Radish 0 Posted November 11, 2001 can anyone elaborate on this? We are having a chronic idiot coming onto the server spamming voice comms. I think I have his #userlist number, but i cant seem to get ban.txt to work..does it work for #'s? On the same note, is there a way to disable voice comms on my server?

RN Malboeuf 12 Posted November 11, 2001 Do a search on "ban" for more info and I want the Admin PW since I play on the server alot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angry Radish 0 Posted November 11, 2001 Nope, no help at all..thats how I found this thread in the 1st place... On top of that, the search engine here stinks, but then thats what you get when you use a freeware perl messageboard:-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suma 8 Posted November 12, 2001 More info on Banning (as requested by Hudson): There are two ban lists. One is user-specific and is located in users directory. This is used for normal (non-dedicated) server, all users banned from chat command line with #ban are added to this list. Second ban list, "global ban", is ban.txt located in main Flashpoint directory. This ban list is used for both dedicated and non-dedicated server and the only way to add entries into it is by manual editing. This file is plain list of decimal banned user IDs delimited with spaces, tabs or end-of-lines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigQEd 0 Posted November 27, 2001 I would like to know how bans can be done from Admin commands if possible... I had heard #ban <id> but that does not seem to work. Also if you manually add a Ban to the ban.txt is there anyway to make it active immediately without a server restart? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for banning without restarting server, this is currently not possible, but we will add in hopefully in next patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigQEd 0 Posted November 27, 2001 Suma... thanks for your response. I hope BIS becomes more aware of the potential of Dedicated Servers. We need more functions for remote administration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
