Hello Guys , So I will Post here all the ban I do for people caught with weapons that are not a part of the games. Before the Banhammer , you must know that I always send a message to the player with the cheated weapons asking him to drop it somewhere in the forest were no-one will found it , and i give them 5 min. or to disconnect and be immediatly ban...I do that because not everyone know all the weapons of the game. I Have more than this , but i'm too lazy to search in the logs files . Dear other admins , I Share with you those GUID , you can ban them if you want. And more and more will come :D

That's what I do on my server after having setup the two software server has services with NSSM . It works...but it sucks...it's a workaround , that could cause problem... For example , if the server in GMT-6 crash , it will relaunch with another batch (pretty much the same) , This batch will turn back the system clock to GMT-6 before relaunching the server... But if this server has crashed at 5PM...the system clock will go to 9AM...and 9AM is one of the hours when i Restart the other server...So it will cause this other server to restart... As said in another topic , it doesn't happen often , but it happens... Right now i'm searching a way to set a specific system time clock for a specific user or service...with that i can create two users , with their own clock , and each servers will be launch by the good user... But i'm still unlucky , and do not find anything... so yes we need a way to change it by ourself in the mission file... if we cannot edit them...perhaps it could be useful to create a sort of script on the website (client area) where the hoster choose a time clock , and the script will automatically do the modifications in the missions file ...so we just have to download it... I'm not a webdev , so I do not know if it can be done.

Hi , I'm using Tzutil right now with my dedicated server...I Have two server running on it GMT +2 and GMT -6 , so at each restart , there is a batch like that. TzUtil /s "romance standard time" Net start 1server timeout /t 120 /nobreak tzutil /s "central standard time" Net start second server Timeout /t 180 /nobreak TzUtil /s "romance standard time" It work fine the most of time...and if the server crash , as it's a windows service , their will be another batch (pretty much the same) launching again tzutil , and the server. My problem is , for example The first server crash (gmt-6) , 5PM (GMT+2 , local hour) The batch will launch TzUtil , to change the timezone to GMT-6 until the server is back , that will do 9AM on the system clock....and at 9AM is the hour I set for the general restart...meaning the other server will restart , following the BEC Scheduled... It doesn't happen often...only 2 times until now...But it still can happen ... So i'm searching a way to set a specific timezone to a specific application / service...if anyone as something like that...

For those who used Firedaemon you also have a good free alternative it's called NSSM , it change your exe files with parameters in a service , like Srvany from microsoft , but it has a sort of watchdog that will see if the exe is crashed or not , and you can setup what to do if the exe crash in the services setup.

can't you download the config file , and edit it on your computer ? and I don't know what this config file you post is really... because for me , the difficulty setting are in another file than the server setting... I have my server.cfg with all the server setting (battleye , motd , ...) and an arma2oaprofile file , with all the difficulty settings...

Hi all , I'm the hoster of FR35 / FR140 Those server are on the same dedicated server , and I want to help you if I can"t... That means an other hoster with a dedicated want , not a server rant to a third party like Olutta , defconserver, .... I'm not the best in administration...but I've worked so hard , and so much time on those two servers...that I Think i can help on all Major questions about automatic scripts , server services , not install firedaemon and having the same possibility . My first purpose was to make a guide tutorial , but i'm not quite good in english... So ask you question , and i will to the best to help...and i Think i can answer properly to all your question..except for one thing...the automated update of the dayz files, or the Arma2beta File..that...i don't know how to do... you will excuse me for my bad english...but as i said , i'm good at it...and i'm a little drunk !

Hi , sure I can help you . But I need a start point . What information do you need ? Installation , Auto restart/message , anything else ?

For the HUD HUD=1; HUDPerm=1; HUDWp=1; HUDWpPerm=1; I think it must be ok with that. For the waypoint I don"t know , and same for location. motd[] = { "#BlaBlaBla", }; It's like that for me , and it works.

I think too , 95417 was unstable , and causing a lot of crash to my two servers , and for the client their was more and more artefacts... so I have rollback to 95389 and it seems to be ok now.

If you search a little on the web , you can use the arma2oa server as a windows service with SRVANY http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverMigration/thread/98a97aee-c62b-4683-94ab-3777899cf7de/ and making a batch with Net start "service" // net stop "service" in scheduled task manager.

Ah ok , I don't even have the password ^^ so we are fucked.

I ban those people from my server . I just need the proof . so , don't tell no admin ban those people. Thank you.

The IRC channel exist...but we do not have access to it...i'm in the same postion for some other little problem. [15:27] Cannot join channel (+k): #DayZ-admins

Hello everyone , I'm the administrator of EU9 server. First when we rent this server , there was the Crazy Pepper. We hunted them because there was already a post about their suspiscious way of playing by cheating. After a few days of hunt we found enough proof, got them banned and two of them was banned from this forum. But later...they changed their nickname ,and we don't think about writing all of their GUID, but we think they were gone. And the topic was gone too (the password is strong with this one) with the rollback. That was a win , and that was pretty fun to hunt them anyway. We lost all our great stuff , but that was for the good of everyone. Yesterday , we have just done the same with the A2G . That's a long and awesome story to tell but i will not tell it here. At the end, there were 3 A2G men with M107, killing people coming behind their back at 1km , nice movement predictions skill... and use of server hopping. We found their camp at the same time (as they found the camp of our allies), and there was a lot of duplicated weapons (weapons you can't have in so many numbers by playing, even for an "organized group" like the CrazyPeppers were).So after the 3 M107 precog mens, and this camp , we banned them all. Today we just found another duplication camp. We managed to kill some peoples from this camp, again with M107 and top gear...and when I was about to ban them...I see that the A2G weren't ban anymore... I contact the host, Soppa, and he told me he has unbanned them because he was fearing a blacklist because we banned them without posting proofs on the forum. So , what am I supposed to do ? Just ignore those cheaters and people who are duplicating, server hopping and everything else? Trying to hunt them with my proud flashlight ? Just taking all of my free time to hunt some fucking cheaters and taking proofs, to protect the gameplay of this mod ? If it's the last proposition. which we have done until now , you just have to now that's impossible. We are two allied team against cheaters...and we barely managed to get rid of them (it's more of a Pyrrhic victory), when we get informed they are no longer banned. They are too much , and cheating is just too easy. I know this mod is only an alpha test , but alpha test do not mean let everyone do anything just for test purpose. Rocket, if you want to do a stand alone game from this mod , you have to know that you will not succeed with this way of managing ban. The idea of this game and the game are really awesome , that's why so much people pay to administrate a server and play with other peoples. But administrators want to play too...they just don't want to lose their times hunting cheater, making screenshot, youtube videos, and post everything of this forum and get spit on the face when they are not (I'm talking about the fair admins, not the ones abusing each time they get killed or whatever), when cheaters are just laughing making streaming videos of them cheating. So if you take too much times at making something about that , you will just come to your editor with a good games but no-one to play on it. And if you tell me , that it is a privilege for me to host a server with your mod...I will come to you and slap you until you die, because yes we have this privilege, but the very most important thing is that you have the privilege to have people paying to run your mod on some servers, having people helping you to find bug, and coding this mod to make it workable to be a stand alone a day. Don't forget the community that support you, your team, and your work. And please, stop crying about cheaters, that is just a shame, crying will not help. I'm hunting , so do something. And yes , here is a potatoe for you. I'm belgian , so it's free.

Do not want to know if bug exploit , scripting cheat or anything else , it's just a ban. Soppa , if you are not happy with this ban and want to remove it , because you fear a blacklist , just send me a mail before .

I got some cheat reports from players this morning , and after having check the engine log , I found this person with this stuff. 7:49:41 "HIVE: WRITE: "CHILD:201:6242630:[]:[["M9SD","ItemWatch","ItemMap","ItemCompass","ItemKnife","ItemMatchbox","Binocular","bizon_silenced"],["15Rnd_9x19_M9SD","15Rnd_9x19_M9SD","15Rnd_9x19_M9SD","ItemBandage","15Rnd_9x19_M9SD","15Rnd_9x19_M9SD","15Rnd_9x19_M9SD","ItemWaterbottle","FoodCanPasta","ItemSodaPepsi","FoodCanPasta","ItemWaterbottle","ItemSodaCoke","FoodCanFrankBeans","ItemBloodbag","ItemWire","ItemWire","ItemWire","30Rnd_556x45_Stanag"]]:[]:[]:false:false:0:0:0:1:["M9SD","aidlpknlmstpsraswpstdnon_player_idlesteady03",42]:0:0::0:" / 6242630" I will not give his nickname or anything exept this log line with his stuff as i'm not sure that it's a cheat But are those weapons in game ? bizon silenced and FN FAL ? http://dayzwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=FN_FAL according to this wiki , the weapons is only lootable on choper crash...but as far as I know the gear menu on those crashed choper do not appear... so is it a cheat , or do the bug with crashed chopper is solved ? Thank you. Best regards. Khalimerot.

Yes but as I told , the gear menu from thos crashe is still buggy and do not appear . At least for each time I have tried to have it. and the player linked to this stuff has died about 20 times this morning in the script log file... I don't tell he is a cheater , i'm just asking , cause those log a really unreadable , and I don't know what i'm searching for exactly.

I don't have read all the post , But I Just have one thing to tell , and I will try to tell it as i can with my bad english... Rockett can tell whatever he wants has rules for the ban or anything else with his software/mod... but you have to know , at least for european law , that he cannot force an hoster of his software to let everyone connecting to it...Rockett has the property of the software , but it's the hoster , or the person who rent the server who has the property of brandwith , and the connection to his server... So if I host a server , and I'm renting one right now with sopa. that's me who decide who can connect or not to my server.. and that's all. they can put the rules or the EULA telling that's it's only rocket and the dev team who decided who is ban or not...they will loose . and you don't need a good lawyer for that.

We do not know where all the tents and vehicles are. the only access Soppa gived us his the Rcon , and a readable access to the Log , nothing else. If there is a way to know where all tents and vehicles are I don't know it, and I don't want to know it , I'm hunting cheaters with their own cheated / duplicated weapons and that's all. It take me a lot of time , that's making me raging , but I will continue as long as I can. cause i want to protect the good gameplay of this mod for every other player on our server.

I don't have restart the server to get items back has those tents was not mine... I have restarted the server to get the tents with the proof of duplicating back... as I told we do not use the items in those tents in games... we only use them when we are sure to attack some cheaters . and that was the only purposes of those restart...having proof , not using gear in tents.

Do you know only one game where using a bug exploit is allowed ? even if this exploit is available to everyone ? Everyone can use bug exploit to crack a gameconsole...That's not legal because everyone can do it.... that's the same for every game in the world.

Contradiction in it...duplicating items is glitching/hacking . it is having an unfair advantages... And i won't support this sort of game...duplicating is not a mechanic of the game , it's a bug trying to be solved...so you duplicate... I hunt you and that's all.

We have farm the airports as all team... But you can farm the airports for a few weeks and will never found, 4 MK48 , 3 M107 , 70 M67 , and so many M4A1 SD , 10nvg , gps , telemeter. and if you want to know all the stuff we had , was coming from some cheaters (duplicaters camp). We never drop it , and those weapons are only use against other cheaters... but as i'm not really sure of your position in here... if you think that the camp near 009 / 100 was ours , it was not , it was a duplicated (cheaters camp) we were hunting. I tell that cause someone scratch the tents there , and we had rebooted cause we where thinking that it was a try to remove the proof... and has I know nobody has scratch our tents , or the tents of our allies . The only thing that happens to the tents of our allies was someone making them explode...so to be clear...where were you yesterday when this happens ?

Gromz , to be an admin (and he is not the admin ) of a steam group , and beeing admin of the server is not the same. just try to think if you can before writing anything.

Hey Gromz , Just shut up please , you can come to me anytime and destroyed all of my tents and vehicules , I just don't care as it's a game . but if I found your tents first (what happens yesterday ) and found 4 MK48 in it , with a lot of other duplicated weapons in it (screenshot incoming). I will hunt you , and I will slaps you , I will make all I can , to get the proof . and I will restart server every fuckin 5 minutes if needed. Cause in this game you can obviously only glitch against glitcher. and for your informations , exploding tents was not ours , but the one of our allies . and if i restarted the server it was not to save them , but just to come at the ass of the one who was destroying it to have his name , and having proof. Cause mister the destroyer of the tents was destroying it with an M107 , and was from the team of the 3 m107 guy seeing anyone coming at 1km distance. And I'm pretty sure you don't want us to have your duplicated equipement cause this equipement is a proof, but against glitcher , we have an open war . It has begins with the crazy pepper , and it will not finished with you. If you think that it is unfair , just go glitch on another server. Cause rockett told us , this game is not done to be fair , or balanced. So take your stuff , and just go , if you are one of them . Cause I will do as much as I can to be a the most painful for you and all of your friends. You don't need us , except to pay the server you are playing on , and we don't need you at all. And you must know , that now everytime I will see a "BLUE on BLUE" , or any other NPC friendly fire informations in the chat...you will take a kick with all of the one I got the nickname , and just to be sure , I will also restart the server. So try to duplicate your weapons without the NPC seeing you.
