STeamID with no password (best option)

Code:

"STEAM_#:#:#####" "" "abcdefghijklmnopqrstu" "ce"

Yes those are the correct flags to use for full admin... no you shouldn;t doubt if you even thought about it for a second

By Name with a password (dumb idea IMO)

Code:

"NAME" "PASSWORD" "abcdefghijklmnopqrstu" "a"

that "a" is optional, it will protect your name, if somneone tries to connect with your name and the wrong password it will kick them. If you dont want it like that then just make that last section ""

what do i type in console to get my admin

vittu · 08-22-2004 , 02:05

If you use "a" you must exec a cfg file with your password in your console, if you don't care for a password use "ce" to check for steamid only. Password is only good to use if someone else uses your comp with your account, otherwise just use ce.

But I'd have to agree with jtp

Admin Access by Player Name or Clan tag
(Best for LAN, ok for Internet)
This is not the best way to grant admin access. It requires the client to set a password on their end. Many players can do this, how ever many do not grasp the concept of editing config files let alone with the correct info. It's a burden on the person setting up the access and the person receiving it in the end, and there is no added security with this method over access by Steam ID.
