I'm trying to pin down an issue with a long standing Arma 3 server. Until recently, the server was working fine, but over the last 2 days we have been experiencing a lot of desync and lag. Trying to get to the bottom of this, I have enabled -netlog on the server and reviewed the output, but I am approaching the edge of my knowledge. I suspect that the below is a symptom of the issue, as it full of entries like this, however I am not entirely certain what NetChannel is and how to find out why it is refusing packets. Is this an application at the software/OS level, or a network level item? The server is on a Windows 2016 OS, itself running as a VM on a proxmox install. I have confirmed that pinging with "-l 1400" works and the MTU isn't set in the config, so it should be on the default of 1400 if I'm correct. 9610.145: Ch(21):sRetry(240,437359,7000.00) 9610.153: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235512 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.158: Ch(21):sRetry(288,437686,5190.28) 9610.168: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235513 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.175: Ch(21):sRetry(80,437689,5190.28) 9610.185: Ch(21):sRetry(80,437836,3707.35) 9610.188: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235514 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.204: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235515 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.219: Ch(21):sRetry(80,437064,7000.00) 9610.220: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235516 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.231: Ch(21):sRetry(32,437358,7000.00) 9610.231: Ch(21):sRetry(80,437691,5190.28) 9610.243: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235571 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.249: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235572 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.278: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235289 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.290: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235291 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.296: Ch(21):sRetry(80,437755,4448.81) 9610.303: *** NetChannel (21) refused a packet: serialID=235292 (206193...235915), IP=81.97.xxx.xxx 9610.303: Ch(21):sRetry(80,437756,4448.81) 9610.309: Ch(21):sRetry(48,437761,4448.81) 9610.317: Ch(21):sRetry(80,437762,4448.81) 9610.323: Ch(21):sRetry(32,437766,4448.81)

I had thought that the name in the filename was a convention rather than an actual part of the structure, so I didn't think it was trustworthy. Thanks for the clarification.

I am trying to identify where in a missions PBO file the map is defined. Specifically, I have a server with several hundred missions on and I want to be able to list them by which map they take place on. I assume its defined within the SQM, but I cannot find where. It does not appear to be as simple as searching mission.sqm for 'altis' stratis' etc etc. If I can figure out where the information is, I can extract it programatically for all of the maps. Does anyone know where it is defined? Thanks in advance

I'm currently transferring a long standing windows arma 3 server over to Linux, (using Linux game server manager in case that's relevant). I have it all up and running bar one odd issue. If I try to connect to RCON, I get an error that it could not connect. That would be fine, except the arma server logs show successful log ons from my IP, so it is actually connecting, then falling over. I've tried battleWarden and BERCon, so it does not seem to be an issue with the rcon clients. The windows server I am duplicating is still up and bar the IP address, has the same arma config and beserver.cfg files. If I change the IP on my RCON client and connect, it connects fine. I've no doubt I've just missed an obvious configuration somewhere, but I can't find it for the life of me. Anyone come across this before?
