weird ! then ban by IP range, something like 192.168.**.** (I forgot how to configure the IP in users.ini, imo it should work for ban too).

Ah, the problem is that the bot has been using a very wide range, with the only common numbers being "46" at the highest level e.g:

46.46.49.130:50089
46.38.57.213
46.4.166.137

While setting 46.**.***.*** and 46.*.***.*** etc, would risk banning innocent players, it's worth trying.

As to banning, I just put the joker IP:s in "listip.cfg". If there is a better way, I don't know it yet. Where the permanent bans caused by the "sv_rcon_banpenalty 0" are stored I have yet to find out :S

That might be why it turned it didn't work!

Since I am running my server on a local machine, I can simply write the commands (e.g. "status", "meta list" etc) in the HLDS console through remote desktop. But I doubt it would help in this case since I've had the problem through several versions of meta and amxx...

Block rcon port
(not sure if u can play in server after that)

Again: simply ignore it. The bots are stupid and the passwords they try are for "stupid serveradmins". I had that once a while too and never got a problem through this. And as my server had been running on a dedicated machine i used rcon all the time.
