PHP reboot

[Mwnci]

Is there a way to reset a SRCDS by using the php exec or system commands. I would like to setup a web based reset for my clan's server using XAMMP (apache) and php. I think the server will be running on Fedora. Thanks.

You can use php to connect to the server using RCON protocol. just google php and rcon.

[get]

is this avaiable for source engine?
i was looking for something like this.

I'm not sure how different the rcon protocol for source is from hlds, but i know its still possible to have PHP connect to an srcds server via the rcon protocol using sockets.

Thanks guys, I'll look it up now

The RCON protocol of source is a real pain in the ass, I've been trying to get it to work for like 3 months, then I gave up. I used to have several php source files which should be working I can try to find thos and post it here.

Stupid thing is that the restart command just shuts down the server, it doesnt actually restart...

I just found some source code from a french site that worked for me to send a rcon command to my server. Was able to execute _restart from the web and it restarted successfully. I converted the french words into something more readable in english. I've attached the php class file and the example page they had to let you execute rcon commands. Now that I have this at my disposal, I can code something useful for the other admins on my server, especially when I'm not available. =D
