Server Password Help

[RC3117]

Hey folks, I cant seem to get a server password working on my dedicated server. Any help would be awesome.

Hey RC3117.

Do you have a config.cfg in next to your arma3server.exe?

[RC3117]

Yes.

[Cappy]

password = "enteryourpassword";

[RC3117]

see, I have that, but anyone can log into the server no problem.

I should clarify, I have that, with a password, but people can connect and play just fine, where as if you do the /#login itll take my paswwords fine. but, I dont want poeple to connect without having to enter the password.

Can you copy your .cfg file for us?

Take away the steam port, that is obsolete.

[Cappy]

Everything looks fine.

[RC3117]

ok, well is there a chunk of code i can add to prevent the server from restarting in the event connection issues happen? its rather annoying for us when we are half way through something and a network problem on server end causes the mission to abandon and such.

[Cappy]

How are you hosting the server?

[RC3117]

I am using the dedicated server through the steam cmd on my roommates desktop.

[Cappy]

Okay, that should be fine.

I don't see where the problem could be..?

[Cappy]

Have your called the .cfg file in your commandline
-config=server.cfg

If you keep having problems, try using TADST.

search TADST, it's an ArmA 2 Tool. Works with ArmA 3.
