Hi,

I try to do a adminmenu_custom.txt where I could change the sv_password.

I tried this :
"War mode"
{
"cmd" "sm_cvar sv_password xyz"
"execute" "server"
"admin" "sm_cvar"
}

When I run it on my serv, I've got the message "protected cvar" and the password doesn't change.

Do you know what to do ?

Thank you.

EDIT: You don't need to use sm_cvar if you're running the command on the server. Just use

sv_password zyx

If you'd like the password changes to show up in the admin log saying who did it, you'll need to execute it client side and give admins the "l" flag.


sm_cvar only works on certain cvars unless the admin has the right flags; for example, sm_cvar does not allow admins to change sv_cheats unless they have the "n" flag. To change the password, I believe "l" is the required flag. For more information, see the flag descriptions here.

Thank you,

I tried but it doesn't work neither.

The fact is, that when I'm rcon logged, and use
rcon sv_password "test"
I've got the same message.



I tried also to change the adminmenu_custom, with this :
"Password"
{
"cmd" "sv_password xyz"
"execute" "server"
"admin" "sm_cvar"
}
"Password2"
{
"cmd" "sm_cvar sv_password xyz"
"execute" "server"
"admin" "sm_cvar"
}

[thoren]

We are hosted. It's on mtxserv.fr

Do you want to change sv_password from nothing (empty)? Thus setting a password on a previously public server?
From my experience, this is not possible without a server restart :/

Once sv_password is set to a non null value however, sv_password "password" works like a charm.

Yes I try to add a pass on a public serv and it doesn't seem to be possible without restart. Thank you
