    It's part of the agreement when you host a dayz mod that they have to have root access to the box you're using. Also, as Rocket told us...we were having a ghost server issue...so he needed to investigate it. All I can say is that, every server owner should be disagreeing with this. Fair enough they may require admin access to certain parts of the system, thats just the way windows works, but it should be controlled as much as possible. If anything the fact that you cant access your server any more is the best example of why admin access should be heavily restricted, especially when its a 3rd party accessing your box. If/when you get admin access back I dont see how you can trust your server, since you have no access you cant monitor what they are doing with your box and as you mentioned, its used to host more than just dayz, what about your other users? Audit audit audit as soon as you get control back. And I strongly recommend you find a way of restricting access to the dayz team (and anyone else) to only the areas they require. (that goes for any server owner) Oh I totally agree. I was like wtf? When Nomad told me that he couldn't access the box and that he had been shut out of it by the DayZ team. But, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt....and when we didn't get a response to any emails or anything...I made this thread to try and get some input as to why we can't access our server box. Windows isnt my strong point. But even if they require admin access, there are areas they dont need access to. For example it should be easy enough to create another admin group and disable any permissions that would allow that group to change any settings regarding login of users etc and apply it to any dayz users on your servers Sould be simple enough, and you shouldn't get any complaints as they have no reason to be messing around with that kind of stuff.

    Just wondering but why would you allow them root/admin access to your server and give them enough permissions to lock you out of your own server? Regardless of who they are whether the dayz team are trustworthy or not they shouldn't have full admin access to anyone's servers. also The rules regarding running a server do state that you cannot kick anyone to make room for someone else.
