It seems that every time we ban a player permanently through the sm_admin (the admin menu that pops up), the user is able to come back, so the bans are probably 24 hours at most, or something.

I also think this may be related to database issues. I posted another thread recently in here about that, too.

Cheers.

Do you use some banning system (sourcebans) or just a pure sm? If the latter, the bans are being stored in cfg/banned_user.cfg file - and it's getting overwritten every time the server starts.

What's the difference between sourcebans and pure sm? Could you clarify?

Put in first line inside ...cfg/autoexec.cfg file

exec banned_user.cfg
exec banned_ip.cfg

Those lines are already in there, but bans still aren't permanent. Furthermore, if we add someone's ID to the banned_users.cfg, it won't stay in there.

I've added my autoexec.cfg file in here. Take a look at it.

This is what I use for my MvM server. I have no idea what game this is for but give this a try and see if it works. (You can test it using sm_ban on yourself and see if it does permanently ban you.) Some admin accidentally banned himself permanently and it persisted even across a server restart (had to manually unban him) so I think it should work.

PHP Code:

// Execute Banned Users
exec banned_user.cfg
exec banned_ip.cfg
writeid
writeip

...of course, if running multiple servers from one srcds.exe, can cause those missing bans, not get syncronized :/

Is this ok? (check the autoexec.cfg file attached)

Also, should I add the "writeid" and "writeip" somewhere in the server.cfg file too? (I also attached that).

[Bacardi]

yes.

But I start think problem is elsewhere...

could you post outputs of these server commands/convars

rcon sv_lan
rcon status
rcon plugin_print
rcon meta list
rcon sm exts list
rcon sm plugins list

Sure.

Below are the commands, followed by what was shown in the console upon entering said commands:

rcon sv_lan


"sv_lan" = "0"
- Server is a lan server ( no heartbeat, no authentication, no non-class C addresses )
