Performance issues? Don't you mean increases? Issues sounds like performance is worse...

Nice to see stability fixes and new filters though :) I'll be updating my server soon

So how do we interpret the deletevehicle log when someone shows up in there?

For example.. not sure what this means. (removed identifying info for now since not sure what it means

09.11.2012 15:17:02: XXXXX (XXXXX)XXXXX - 9:89

09.11.2012 15:17:02: XXXXX (XXXXX) XXXXX - 9:91

09.11.2012 15:17:02: XXXXX (XXXXX) XXXXX - 9:93

09.11.2012 15:17:02: XXXXX (XXXXX) XXXXX - 9:95

09.11.2012 15:17:02: XXXXX (XXXXX) XXXXX - 9:97

09.11.2012 15:17:02: XXXXX (XXXXX) XXXXX - 9:99

Dwarden also updated the other filters to fix more remote execution exploits.

So what does the latest BEConfig look like? I have gotten several lines here and there, but a comprehensive look would help.

my suggestion to server admins is now to run 99153 build , even more speed fixes and improvements, including for security

[MissBehave 37]

Thanks for the advice Dwarden and your hard work. Will look to upgrade asap. Today having hackers decide to hack in videos on our clients while playing was a new low for dooshbags.

BE Server v1.169 fixes more remote execution exploits and adds support for a new filter file called "attachto.txt". Dwarden will add it to the CBL (http://code.google.com/p/dayz-community-banlist/source/browse/filters) shortly.

Awesome. I put in a support ticket to defcon servers to make this stuff available. It is like pulling teeth to get the updated builds. :(
