Baning IP Jedi Acadamey

[Kamikaze Gerbil]

Ok I know for sure that addIP works for JA, as I have used it and users that would not get the hint, (Repetted kicks) do not return. The problem I am having is to get the bans more permenent.

 

Here is my server configureation:

// Server Config

seta sv_hostname "^1Psychotic^7 Petting^1 Zoo ^11.01"

seta g_motd "Visit us at: http://ppz.proboards16.com"

rconpassword "*"

 

// No touch.

seta com_HunkMegs "32"

seta sv_maxRate "8000"

sv_maxclients 20

 

// General Settings

sv_privateclients 2

sv_privatepassword "*"

sets "Admin" "Sith Moo/Kamikaze Gerbil"

sets "Admin E-Mail" "KamikazeG@Hotmail.com"

sets "Clan" "PPZ - Psychotic Petting Zoo"

seta dmflags "8"

seta sv_pure "1"

seta sv_floodProtect "1"

set timelimit "30"

seta g_minGameClients "2"

seta g_weaponDisable "524279" // Weapons Disabled

seta g_forcePowerDisable "163833" // Force Power Disabled

seta g_duelWeaponDisable "524279" // Duel Weapons Disabled

seta g_maxForceRank "7"

seta g_privateDuel "1"

seta g_saberLocking "1"

seta g_saberLockFactor "10"

seta g_slowmoDuelEnd "0"

seta g_forceRegenTime "125"

seta g_dismember "100"

seta g_siegeTeamSwitch "1"

seta g_allowvote "0"

seta fraglimit "0"

seta timelimit "30"

seta capturelimit "9"

seta duel_fraglimit "15"

 

// Saber Settings

seta g_saberDamageScale "1"

seta g_locationBasedDamage "1"

seta g_saberDamageScale ".75"

 

// Master server lists

seta sv_master5 ""

seta sv_master4 "masterjk3.ravensoft.com"

seta sv_master3 "master0.gamespy.com"

seta sv_master2 "clanservers.net"

seta sv_master1 "masterjk2.ravensoft.com"

 

// gametypes

seta g_gametype 0

// 0 = FFA

// 3 = DUEL one on one tournament

// 4 = POWER DUEL

// 6 = TEAM DEATHMATCH

// 7 = SIEGE

// 8 = CTF

 

//Map Rotation

set d1 "map mp/ffa1 ; set nextmap vstr d2"

set d2 "map mp/ffa2 ; set nextmap vstr d3"

set d3 "map mp/ffa3 ; set nextmap vstr d4"

set d4 "map mp/ffa4 ; set nextmap vstr d5"

set d5 "map mp/ffa5 ; set nextmap vstr d1"

 

// Ban Settings

exec BAN.cfg

 

// start the first map

vstr d1

 

Then my BAN.cfg:

seta g_filterBan "1"

// Begin Banned IP's List

addIP 211.49.221.203

addIP 68.3.140.216

addIP 66.203.228.216

addIP 67.161.243.68

// End Banned IP's List

 

Now so long as the server does not crash the bans I put in RCON stay but they don't stick if it does go down any tips?

This looks interesting! I wanna have that too! How to add it? Can I just copy it?

You shouldn't be losing the list of banned players with each server crash unless your host is resetting your server after the crash and wiping out your jampserver.cfg file. The problem with doing this:

// Begin Banned IP's List

addIP 211.49.221.203

addIP 68.3.140.216

addIP 66.203.228.216

addIP 67.161.243.68

// End Banned IP's List

is if the list of banned IP addresses isn't cleared when the server crashes, it will create multiple entries of the same IP addresses, and fill up your g_banips cvar. Then you can't add any more IP addresses.

 

It's better to create a separate file on the server called banlist.cfg. Make a text file and rename it banlist.cfg. It should have entries like:

 

addIP 211.49.221.203 //player name, reason for banning

addIP 68.3.140.216 //player name, reason for banning

addIP 66.203.228.216 //player name, reason for banning

addIP 67.161.243.68 //player name, reason for banning

 

Update it every time you ban someone with /rcon addip. Then check your listip of banned IP addresses with /rcon listip after a server crash. If it is empty, just send /rcon exec banlist.cfg and the IP addresses will be re-entered.

 

Also, while this works, it's unnecessarily complicated:

// gametypes

seta g_gametype 0

 

//Map Rotation

set d1 "map mp/ffa1 ; set nextmap vstr d2"

set d2 "map mp/ffa2 ; set nextmap vstr d3"

set d3 "map mp/ffa3 ; set nextmap vstr d4"

set d4 "map mp/ffa4 ; set nextmap vstr d5"

set d5 "map mp/ffa5 ; set nextmap vstr d1"

 

// start the first map

vstr d1

 

If all you want to do is play Free for All (FFA) and use the 5 standard maps in their default order, all you have to do is this:

 

seta g_gametype "0"

seta g_autoMapCycle "1"

map mp/ffa1

 

It does the same thing with 3 lines instead of 7.

 

Also, use one of your sv_masters to report to Qtracker:

 

seta sv_master5 "master.qtracker.com"

Thanks for the pointers Amidala I will give it a shot.

 

Carl yeah all you should have to do is copy:

 

seta sv_master5 "master.qtracker.com"

seta sv_master4 "masterjk3.ravensoft.com"

seta sv_master3 "master0.gamespy.com"

seta sv_master2 "clanservers.net"

seta sv_master1 "masterjk2.ravensoft.com"

 

In to your server.cfg file or what ever you named it.
