Hi everyone,
I just found out one of my clients can change the slot count of his
server (CS 1.6), does anyone know how ou know how to stop him from
doing so ? Is there a common way of doing it and most important, is
there a fix ?
I think he uses the server.cfg to send commands through to

Thanks guys for your answers, but here a couple more details:
- the command script is protected
- the guy says he does it using the server.cfg
- gameservers are launched as a user and not as root
- he has ftp access
- the bins and .so are not protected
Thanks for your time.

When you say he has ftp access does that mean he can upload a
server.cfg file to the directory where you have CS installed? If that's
the case, I would guess he's uploading a custom server.cfg and it gets
read on map change. Just a guess, though.

The server is launched by command line, the command-line overrides the
setting in the server.cfg doesn't it, unless maybe the autoupdate
feature enables a reboot ignoring the commandline (which seems
impossible though) ?

He has FTP access?
Well, wouldn't he just be editing the server.cfg? Or starting a server
process with a +servercfgfile specified?
Confused somewhat... if you don't want him having the ability to
modify/create then he shouldn't have those permissions (i.e FTP) on the
server?
Let me make a few assumptions here. I assume that:
1. You have a box and the client in question pays for a CS 1.6 server
with N slots which runs on this box.
2. You don't want him to change the number of slots because he only pays
for N slots.
Is this the case? If so, then my solution to
Your assumptions are correct. The client needs access to the ftp (and
all of our clients have this acces, as well as all of our competitor's
clients) to be able to change anything he wants, such as server name,
password, etc ... this is how it's been for the past 2 years and we've

Does the client have SSH access, or just FTP?

Just charge him for the extra slots he is using. Or restart his server when
his connected clients exceeds his paid number. Then send him an automatic
email saying what happened.

Maybe this will help. I dont know if its possible but sounds good.
After the server executed server.cfg it must execute hosting.cfg which will
include the data from what he paid.

When we were using a hosting company they would alter our .cfgs with
scripts that ran like every 15 minutes or so and looked for certain
commands and either removed them or changed them to certain values as
well as added their commands (ie. fps_max).

Write a small cron script that checks the slots and restarts the server
with if the slotcount is wrong. And when you're doing this, you can also
check if your customer has set a password (if it's a private server).
I think the customer will complain if his server restarts every 5 mins ;)
Thanks all for your suggestions, but when a customer restarts the
server from his panel, the command line executes automatically the
right slot count. Which is why I don't understand how he does it and
makes me wonder if it has something to do with the autoupdate commande
line.

option to restart the server via rcon without the panel? (and perhaps not

Wait I just thought of something. I remember that you can edit the valve.rc
and add stuff in there and make it use that as the command line...at least
for CSS/TF2.

Even if you run these commands in the console, when the client
restarts the server (after running them you have to right ?), and he
can only do this with the panel, which uses the right number of slots

I misunderstood the first time those were posted. I thought they were typed

apologies.
