So we have been nuked many times in our server already. And of course, it's really tough to find out who is responsible. However, I had a question about how it works. If a "hacker" aka script kiddy runs a nuke script, does he, (the hacker) act as the psychical bomb and the point of explosion starts from him? Is he the first to die the? Or is it completely random? I say this because one night we had about 10 people in our server, 3 were non-clan mates and we were nuked. The person we were suspicious of, was the first to die and saw his name at the top of the list. Probably a shot in the dark, but anything is worth a shot atm.

Bump.

So another reseller?

A clan mate just created a tool to help do this. Should help a little. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/51250-server-log-files/

Our server last night and today has been flooded with hackers. Vehicles spawned in, parachuting cows and being nuked over and over.

Either way, your stupid lol

Couldn't of said it better myself. Admins need this. We are HELPLESS against hackers. Absolutely helpless.

Once you connect to your server, you need to login via rcon, and set the mission for the server. Follow these directions. 1. While your at the "wait for host" screen, hit "/" to open up chat. 2. Type "#login [rcon password here]" If should say you've connected as admin. 3. Then type: "#missions" A new screen will pop up. 4. Select "regular", "Chenarus" and then "dayz" and hit continue. Now dayz will start playing. You'll have to do this everytime you restart your server. Servers should be restarted every 6 hours. Be nice and let your players know BEFORE you do so.

Thanks for admitting that you were rightfully banned.

Not that I wouldn't love to believe you but...proof? (Our server got nuked 4 times the past 2 days)

Awesome :)

If it does re-download files, it'll show it in the steam download window. Also, make sure your running STEAM as an administrator.

Sounds good.

Re-download everything? It seems the last update that was released on steam last night made this happen.

This happened in our server last night. He gave everyone AS50's and then nuked everyone. Ugh.

I had this same issue and I fixed it. Note: This is for the steam version. First 1. Exit steam, then open it back up and run it as an administrator. 2. Right click on Arma 2 in Steam, click properties. 3. Go to the local files tab. 4. Click verify integrity of game cache. It may find missing/corrupt files and say it's going to re-download them. Check in the steam downloads window. (I was missing 11 files, could be different for you.) Second 1. Right click on Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead in Steam, click properties. 2. Go to the local files tab. 3. Click verify integrity of game cache. It may find missing/corrupt files and say it's going to re-download them. Check in the steam downloads window. (I was missing 5 files, could be different for you.) Third Run BOTH games until you get into the main menu and then exit out of them. (if you don't do that, you'll get a bad cd key error message when trying to launch dayz.) Fourth Now try and join a server via six updater or dayzcommand. Enjoy your game!

The horrible thing is there is no way to combat it. We can't tell from the cryptic logs who is doing what and we can't even get a name. I think it's time we build our own rcon tool to help record/ban hackers.

Reserved.

Bump!

Exactly. Case closed.

I heard there were talks of adding dogs. Not sure it was implemented yet. Probably something a hacker spawned in. Cool none the less.
