They want to give rcon access to their customers, but don't want them to mess with the sv_maxrate, etc. The reason they want to give rcon access is so that these customers can have the full functionality of hlsw. For example, hlsw stores all player names in a wonid database if you have the rcon password. This feature is nice. So a custom frontend to halfd won't really help here. What is necessary is to be able to restrict access to a few commands and a few cvars.

If you put what you want in your server.cfg it will at least be put back to the defaults on map change. At least this is the case with 3.1.1.0 - there was some talk about this changing in the latest release but the thread turned into a flamefest or something so I gave up following it. rcon should not be given to untrusted people. No-one but myself has rcon to the servers I run - I don't trust anyone. I use amxmod to give priveleges to my admins. -- James. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

I know about AMX mod. I wrote several mods. But I haven't seen a way to disable certain cvars from HLSW being able to edit.
