Defunkt 431 Posted March 9, 2010 Server keys are not required to run addons on a server, if the server won't run it's not for want of a key. Perhaps the problem is that you cannot connect because your server config includes VerifySignatures=1 (server will run but clients with that mod will be rejected as there is no matching key installed). Anyway, HERE is the BIS Wiki entry on the subject, and 'yes', it explains how you can sign addons yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
