Hello everybody!

We've came across another problem, which is the following:
The server executes an empty banned_user.cfg but if we use the rcon to listids it lists (5) ids. We can't use rcon neither to remove ids because it changes nothing, also if we changed the map the ids (bans) came back basically.

Do you guys have any ideas how to fix this?

If you stop your server and empty out banned_users.cfg then start it up and find users still banned then it most likely a plugin or another config that is adding the ids. It's possible that you have a config somewhere that randomly has a few banids in it.

We've sourcebans++ installed could that be the problem? Because the server is not executing other cfg files.

You do realize you're essentially asking why there are banned users when you have a plugin that manages bans installed.

Sb++ stores the bans in an sql database, and the steamids in the rcon, arent in the db

If I remember right SB++ has a database that connects to mysql database and stores a backup. Could that be the issue.
There is also a chance that something else is loading in bans from another source to ban known users that are cheaters etc.

What you could do is disable all sourcemod and start from there and checking the banned list, at this point helping you would require a full list of plugins but even that wouldn't be enough information because it could be anything pulling in these ids. You're better off learning some basic debugging skills of trial and error rather then getting limited help from here.
