Log-file-tracing on hackproof servers...

[Fenris]

Hi,

can anyone tell me what to look for in the logfile of a server using the re-flagged files to see who is rejected when trying to connect with "dirty" files?

Thanks...

That's a good idea...

Can't think of what to use, though.

I use some unix-tools to get pretty effective player/maps statistics...

Problem is, I need to know what I'm looking for.

Here you go, found it last night!!!

Check your logfile. If ANY person joins with any messed up files, it should print in the logfile something like " CHEATER!!! >>> " and then the IP and username.

Donno if it checks the new packages, but it does check the old ones.

THAT EASY????

You're not joking at poor old me, right?

Pretty sure. It's a check in the SMaleBase class (the playerclass) that checks to see if the internal compile stuff is exaclty the same. If not, it boots the player and logs it.
