I agree - hard to fake :  wonid:pass:level

Anyway - we still can not get it working on DoD 1.0 servers.

Using ip is no good for a pub server, because most internet users have
dynamically assigned ip addresses.  Why not just use wonid?

I'm not sure whatsup - I cant get AdminMod to work - I upgraded to the beta
for DoD v1 and the users in the users.ini can not access the adminmod
commands - it tells them its an unrecognized command So I upgraded them
to 3111c and still no go... Adminmod is being executed - in the autoexec.cfg
and the first map file.cfg
Tried adding the:
VALVE_1: before their reg. adminmod stuff in the users.ini file and nada  -
any ideas?

Thx!

Sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

See, that is insufficiently paranoid. I plan to authenticate
using IP AND password.

Where does that file go?

I've got a file called "autoexec.cfg in path\to\Half-Life\dod\,
and "C:\Program Files\SIERRA\Half-Life\hl.exe" -console -game
dod +exec autoexec.cfg" in the properties section of the icon
'thingy'.

This does nothing.

I start dod (by double clicking on that icon) and got console. I
then typed exec autoexec.cfg.

Nothing.

With Counterstrike, the autoexec.cfg file went in the cstrike
directory, and it ran by itself. Well, usually.

This is the server.cfg in /halflife/hlds_l/dod/logs, right?

I get a file, but it's 0 length.

I'm starting the game as root, and the logfile has is root:root
644, so it should be writeable.

Hmm... starting it as a different user (with all the files owned
as that user) has the same effect--there is a logfile created,
but it has no contents.

I am getting logging to the screen though.

Is there a detailed web page on basic setup?
