Locking server remotely with no direct access to console - ded - 05.09.2009

For example if you have a hosted server and you cannot access the console and there is no control panel, etc. would there be a way to lock the server without scripting a feature to lock it, just using the standard locking function?

What do you mean by locking it? Set a password for it? If so then no, it would need to be coded or else done through RCON.

Yeah :+

Normally you would choose a password and put it in your servercfg to lock it ... but if you have no DIRECT access to the console and no control panel can you do it?

I mean even by using /rcon .. is it possible?

Yes with /rcon, login with RCON and type /rcon password ...

Yeah lmfao .. sorry I never thought about it properly. I've never used the locking thing (never had need) so I just thought you would have to type a password into server.cfg.
