I don't think you need to have 'writeid' and 'writeip' in your server.cfg file. I think that is might be causing your ban list to reset. You use those commands when you're playing on your server and you ban some guy with the 'banid' or 'banip' commands. Once you've banned him, you type 'writeid' or 'writeip' to make the server write out the list of bans that it currently has in memory into the respective cfg files. Remove 'writeid' and 'writeip' from your server.cfg and see if the problem persists.

The configuration file (server.cfg) of the server this is happening on has this in the config: exec banned.cfg writeid exec banned_ip.cfg writeip Seems like this just started after the latest Steam updates for HL2. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
