sorry about last post html tags must have been
bumped..
listen and listen good
go to this post and read
http://www.cfgn.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=1e3bda71fbd20974ec90a78153379dca&threadid=15531
for those of you that are working do you have a linux
server? maybe there isnt a problem with linux. see how
many people in the post are having same problem.
I exec my password config from the path statment i
start the server with like this:
x:\Games\SIERRA\Half-Life\hl.exe -console -game
cstrike +connect xx.xx.xx.xx:xxxxx +exec adminpass.cfg
ok,
then i have to exec adminpass.cfg every round and
setinfo still drops by the next map.
NOW LISTEN < NOW LISTEN especially you with the stupid
car analogy.............
MY PROBLEM IS NOT BEING DROPPED THAT IS THE CAUSE OF
SETINFO information BEING DROPPED........
the setinfo password is gone by the next map. I put my
password in autoexec.cfg like you said kristopher and
it didnt work, ok when i connected i had admin rights
and everything, then typed SETINFO in the console and
my password was gone......right after connection
changed mp-timelimit to 2 and the map changed, and
beacuse my password was not in SETINFO i was
DROPPED...
I will reapeat so everyone understands SETINFO is the
problem something with the net code security as "da
rope" said in the post right here...and he codes for
Adminmod, ok, stupid linux uses can't read, take that
linux manual and hit some sense into your head, ok....
iam not saying i am being dropped by Half-life, they
changed something so my password doesnt stay in
setinfo...I guess linux is unaffected...ok
post from forum..

Well, the players getting dropped on a mapchange
certainly is not a adminmod problem. The problem for
Adminmod is that the rejoining plaers lost their
authentication because the disconnected and then
connect into a different slot. I have no idea what
causes the droppings. My guess is that Valve changed
some things in the network protocol to protect against
exploints which made it far more touchy. I still don't
know when the droppings occur. I've not been able to
reproduce it on my server. Anyhows, there is no quick
fix for this from the AM side. We would have to
redesign the whole authentication and security thing.
I'll see what we can come up with. This sure is
annoying as hell.
