> RCON is fine if used properly, like issuing IP bans for failed attempts etc.
You don't need RCON to issue an IP ban. Why you'd want to ban someone by IP address is beyond me since IP bans are pretty much useless. > I have tried to ban people but the steam I'd doesn't stay in the file it disappears after use banid 0 "steam_###" then writeid. Didn't work Don't use "writeid" after you ban someone. "banid 0 steam_xyz" is enough to remove the offending player from the server. You also need to make sure you have "exec banned_user.cfg" in your server.cfg or the ban list will be lost when the server crashes or is restarted.
