[Resolved] SteamID ban doesn't work. Please help

[xlfearlx07]

When I am on the server I type:
banid 0 MYSTEAMID (test purposes)
Press Enter and I then type:
writeid
listid
I then see, my steam id listed in the banned_user file. However, I am still on the server unkicked and unbanned. So I leave the server manually and reconnect (to test) and it let's me join. So in conclusion ban is not working at all... Any ideas... I've been fighting to figure this out on Mani Admin Plugins forums for months now, and nobody can figure it out. I was referred to possible help from here. Please, if anyone has any ideas, I would love to hear them.

Thanks in advance,
Fear

If you have connected to the server via the RCON, you can't be kicked.

Hate to say it Mooga but, that's got nothing to do with my issue. I can kick myself while on the server, but ban doesn't work. In fact, I have tried using manis auto kick and that doesn't work either. But I really don't care about autokick for mani I just wish ban would work.

realchamp, as for sv_filterban 0. I assume you need to add that line to the server.cfg and that it would fix my issue. I'll give it a shot and report back. But when you make a post you should put more than just a command for those who can't put two and two together and maybe even explain what it does a little.

Thanks for help. Keep it coming. Going to test the ban with the new "sv_filterban 0" command in the server.cfg file. I'll report back shortly.

I changed sv_filterban from 0 to 1 and ban now works.... wow. I can't believe nobody saw that this whole time. Thanks real champ. BAN WORKS NOW!
