I have a problem with banned ip/user Please help
It seems when I wake in the morning and check my server, for the past 3 days my banned_user.cfg & banned_ip.cfg are wiped blank. Every entry in them has been erased.
I have no idea why this is happening, up until the past 3 days this hasn't happened in the 12 months these servers have been setup. I would really appreciate some help please. Thanks |
Re: I have a HUGE problem with banned ip/user Please help
It has been quite a while but I think you should do a "writeid" and a "writeip" in your server config right after executing the banned_ip.cfg/banned_id.cfg.
Hope this prevents further problems. |
Re: I have a HUGE problem with banned ip/user Please help
Thanks Sillium Yeah it's
execute ban files exec banned_user.cfg exec banned_ip.cfg writeid writeip at the very end of server.cfg. I have tried that in the past but it doesn't explain why 200 user id's keep getting wiped from the banned_user.cfg file. Its only just started happening. |

Re: I have a problem with banned ip/user Please help
Try add
exec banned_user.cfg exec banned_ip.cfg in autoexec.cfg - Make sure there is not writeid and writeip there. Add writeid writeip bottom of server.cfg This way server execute "permanent bans" once in server memory (rcon listid) when server launched. Why need execute bans every map change ? When there come more bans or have removed... Every map change, server save current "permanent bans" (rcon listid) in cfg file. Execute commands wrong order, wipe cfg files empty. example: writeid exec banned_user.cfg Sourcemod "sm_ban" will automatically save permanent ban in cfg file after banning player, not need wait map change. Again if use SourceBans, I don't know where it save bans ? In that cfg or own database ? |
Re: I have a problem with banned ip/user Please help
Yeah, so it should run in this order?
execute ban files exec banned_user.cfg exec banned_ip.cfg writeid writeip But I am absolutely without a doubt lost in understanding why all of a sudden without any obvious reason I can find that I have to start using these at all, I never have. I tried them once and I cant even remember why. After 12 months without issues all of a sudden those files get wiped everyday? I know I've said this above but I am the kind of guy that likes to figure out why (as well as stop it) Thanks bacardi |

Yeah you're probably right groger but I am gutless sometimes, I don't understand sourcebans really and I often come across threads that mention conflicts. having said that I am considering using it. |
