Replying to the actual question at hand; I think your safest bet is to do what is in the SRCDS Hardening wiki that you originally posted. I think you can get the huge majority of exploiters with KAC, DFENS, and Drunken F00l's DoS Attack Fixer (http://www.sourceop.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=9)
These are the 3 primary ones that I run and I've had zero problems since I've had them up. I agree that the SRCDS Hardening article really needs some updating, since some plugins like KAC and DFENS do the same things that several other of the smaller plugins do, making them unneeded (Rcon Locker being one of the useless ones now), but I don't think anyone who has access to editing that wiki cares enough to keep it up to date. And the bottom line is that Source is extremely vulnerable to attacks and cheats, and the people who -really- want to do bad shit will always find a way. Using these things stops the large and vast majority of the script kitties, but I don't think anyone will ever stop every single attacker for all time. Not in Source, at least. The easiest way to prevent being attacked is to not piss people off. A smile is always cheaper than a bullet. On Mon, 2010-09-13 at 20:30 +0200, Alon Gubkin wrote: > Can we focus on exploits please?
