Hey guys,
Well, lately I've been facing this problem with my server. When our players play IG, the server is restarted by some unknown source!!! Yes, not from IRC, not our Admins, not from our server host, nowhere. I can say its being restarted because when server restarts, IRC BOT says Client Exited. When server crashes, it says Server Crashed. Currently it says, Client Exited.
Now, I tried restarting my server from an external RCON tool. I see that this restart is not reflected in any logs!!!
So this does mean that the hacker was using some external RCON tool.
I changed all passwords including RCON, still its being "Restarted". Its not being DDoS/DoS because, if it does, the server host logs can read that.
Any Comments?
