Your server provider might have some kind of admin tool to kick/ban people. If not you could use Dart (look for the threat in Server General), or any other rcon tool. We dont run a private hive so I can't help you with your other questions. Answer to your first question... Look harder. Heli crash sites dont spawn all at the same time on server restart any more, but more dynamically.

1). Already been answered terrorizer33.

2). There are various ways of doing this. You can do it in game when you are logged in as an admin (which is a bit of a pain as far as I am concerned), the other way is to use a RCON tool (like DaRT). Once again, this is highly dependant on your service provider.

3). Adding vehicles is normally done through the database, you will have to Google for tutorials on that, it requires some knowledge of the database and My-SQL/SQL. Most service providers have a control panel that allows you to add or spawn in vehicles. Other options are to add spawns directly in the mission file and import that in to your server, once again this is dependant on your service provider.

4). Admins in the game aren't really added, you merely given them your admin password for the server. If you want to add admins on the control center or management tool, that would be specific to your service provider and I can't help you there.

5). I would recommend you check your service provider's website for some type of FAQ and/or Knowledge Base. Failing that, send them some type of Support Ticket and they should be able to answer your questions. I am not with dayz.st ... so I can't answer on the specifics of how they do things and what services they provide.

According to their site they have a Control Panel: http://dayz.st/control ... so this is probably where you would start.

HTH.

Q

1- Since 1.7.5 the crash sites spawn during the game, In the past they all spawned during the server startup

2- Use Dart or Gotcha or TSW anti-hack (not free) and i'm sure there are more admin tools

3- Simple way is to click the map on the control panel and then right mouse click on the map, you can choose to create a permanent spawn point or just a 1 off, another way is to manually add them through the database (phpmyadmin)

4- Tell admins to use Dart or Gotcha or TSW anti-hack, give them the Rcon password and they can connect via IP & Port

5- Prepare to learn lots to be a good admin :) don't be afraid to ask for help
