For example for TFC only the server can execute exec commands, exec itself is privileged and will execute as a filtered command but the commands parsed from cfg files will be executed as regular commands. This causes another bug: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/halflife/issues/2112
Thanks for the explanation, so that's basically server-side and client-side in other words, right?

That applies in CS 1.6 too. Exec is server-side.
