Dedicatedserverinterface.sqf?

[MarKeR (DayZ) 57]

Hey guys..

Posted in the general server forum by accident yesterday, should have been in here..

Can someone clarify if the script below is part of a hack, only two instances of it over two days of log files..

Thanks

thanks

Did you see this only for this player, or are there other players with the exact same message too? Because it looks like the player is injecting the script exactly on the same position like the original one.

Basically, if you just copy&paste from the public hacks, you would see something like this:

"execVM "\MyScripts\ammobox.sqf";"

But maybe the player was clever enough to change the path and rename it like it looks like the legit one.

"execVM "\ca\ui\scripts\dedicatedServerInterface.sqf";"

So, if you don't find other players with the same script message in the logs, it's most likely a hacker.

Found one other instance from one other player over two.days of log files..

Doing a Google search on that item returns some pretty interesting results.

But want to be 100% certain..

Thanks

See where it says _this, players? If the same message comes next except with _this, onload, its probably legit. Tested this with community members opening the dedicated server control panel. It then left entries in the scripts.log.

Thanks fighter...

My question is, the ded server control panel, is that the area for admins to login, in game?

Thanks

[fighter139 191]

Yes, it is.

Thanks mate..

Would have hated to have banned someone for something that isn't a hack.

Much obliged

I just auto-kick people who try to access it, that includes admins. Solves a lot of problems...

Would love to know how you did that.

A couple of days ago we had a assault heli flying around in the server after server shutdown we find this in the logs.

private ["_dummy"]; _dummy = [_this,"onload"] execVM "\ca\ui\scripts\dedicatedServerInterface.sqf

these lines is present in our file.

[_this,"players"] execVM "\ca\ui\scripts\dedicatedServerInterface.sqf";

private ["_dummy"]; _dummy = [_this,"onload"]

with a tag of 5 meaning it should kick the player.

seems the server security depends on their scripts.txt.

can you share your scripts.txt file with us. ?

Or is there a source i can check time to time to update my file.

Remove that line from your scripts.txt

It does nothing but kick and log legitimate players that open the dedicated server control panel (where they need a password to log in).

Yes, this exact line is the place where most cheaters inject their own code (as someone said, google it and you find interesting stuff). BUT, this means that if you hacked your game with custom scripts, this line is NOT in your game -> you don't get kicked and logged.

So just remove it and be done with it.

And as far as I know it is not possible to kick and log for NOT having this line in your scripts, which is the thing you actually want to do.

sorry I might be being stupid but can you try that again in simpler terms, I honestly dont understand what your saying. Do we remove

[_this,"players"] execVM "\ca\ui\scripts\dedicatedServerInterface.sqf";

from the scripts.txt file ? and if so what will that do ?

[icomrade 201]

The server control panel is used by hackers to run scripts, using a hex editor.

I wouldn't remove it. It's how A LOT of hacking starts.

Yes, lots of hackers use it. By replacing the command Shift+P executes to run their own script (Google it). This results in dedicatedServerInterface.sqf NOT being executed when you press Shift+P but the custom script executes instead.

This means that [_this,"players"] execVM "\ca\ui\scripts\dedicatedServerInterface.sqf"; in the scripts.txt will not get triggered (SINCE IT'S NOT THE EF-ING SCRIPT THEY ARE CALLING!) and instead it runs something like /asd/lolhacks.sqf (or ANY other string).

Therefore if you hack your game with the currently very popular method you will be able to just press Shift+P and [_this,"players"] execVM "\ca\ui\scripts\dedicatedServerInterface.sqf"; will not prevent that. People that did not hack/cheat get flagged as soon they press Shift+P though. I have no idea how you can not get this.

Can anyone who does not know shit about computers or BattlEye please GTFO NOW

Bump.

Found this too now, is it legite to ban some1 due to interface.sqf message?
