Perviously posted here on the list but repeated for those asking:
for HLDS: 1. The server will only enter secure mode when it first runs. 2. There is nothing you can do to change the server secure or insecure status once it's running. 3. There is no sv_secure command. 4. There is no -secure console command. 5. "-insecure" is a command line switch only and does not work in the console 6. -insecure overrides both the liblist secure "1" and the GUI checkbox 7. by default the server will start secure if secure is set in liblist.gam. 8. secure "1" must be in liblist.gam for secure to work at all. 9. secure "1" is missing from liblist.gam (or commented out) the server will not be able to enter secure mode (interpreted as "0") 10. unchecking the box in the GUI or adding -insecure in the command line overrides the secure "1" setting in liblist.gam 11. secure "0" in liblist.gam always disables VAC regardless of any other setting. 12. You must shut the server down, change the settings and then restart for the server to change it's secure or insecure state. so here is the table: ------------------------------------------------------------------- liblist cmdline ..... GUI secure -insecure .. checkbox .... VAC ......... comment ......... ------------------------------------------------------------------- 0, .. not present, unchecked ... OFF 0, .. not present, checked ...... OFF 0, .. present, ..... unchecked .... OFF 0, .. present, ..... checked ....... OFF 1, .. not present, unchecked .... OFF .. NOTE: -console VAC mode ON 1, .. not present, checked ........ ON ... NOTE: -console VAC mode ON 1, .. present, ..... unchecked .... OFF 1, .. present, ..... checked ....... OFF ----- Original Message ----- From: "StealthMode" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 1:13 AM Subject: Re: [hlds] VAC issue
-secure in the command line right? or was it secure "1" in liblist.gam file? I forget to be honest haven't messed with a 1.6 server in almost a year. I know it was one of those two. Just can't remember which, but I agree with whisper this should be in the wiki *)
