Do you have hlstatsX running for your server? Do you ban autoretries?! This symptom I have watched if ppl using hlstatsx and do ban rety abuser. Usually a person who enters retry if already connected, is banned for 5min. But we noticed that sometimes it happens at mapchange too. Thats why we did disable it in hlstatsx's configuration.
If not using HLX. What plugins are you using?? Simon -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von BERNARD JOHN ZOLP Gesendet: Mittwoch, 19. Juli 2006 16:45 An: hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com Betreff: [hlds_linux] Users are kicked and banned on map change.for 5.00 minutes I have a CSS linux server that I setup for a few friends to play on -- nothing fancy. It is just a stock CSS server (no mods) on an Athlon XP 2400+ with SuSE 10.0 . My problem is that often times on map change, players will get banned for 5 minutes for no apparent reason. It only seems to occur on map change and seems to happen to both clients connecting to my server over the internet as well as to players on the same LAN as the server. It seems fairly random, but does seem to occur more often when I manually change maps with the changelevel command than with standard mapcycle changes. While playing for about 2 hours last night, there were about 6-7 of these bans. Some of these users play CSS for dozens of hours per week on other servers with no problems, so I doubt it is a client issue. I checked my log files and only find these lines with no additional info as to why the ban occured: "L 07/18/2006 - 22:08:58: Banid: "<><STEAM_0:1:7947225><>" was banned "for 5.00 minutes" by "Console"" >From what I can tell it also bans players when they leave the game as well on some mapchanges. I saw the same line in the logs right after I disconnected from the server, but did not notice the ban first-hand since I did not retry to connect. Is this some type of anti-spam feature? Is there a way to turn it off or something? I have included my server.cfg below for what it is worth.
