rcon problem

[bluegra]

this is the first time ive tried any of this; just testing

I've searched all over and couldn't really find a solution to this rcon problem.

I've recently decided to make a server for the hell of it, and got mani admin plugin.

i followed the instructions carefully to put the folders where they belong and so on, and i see the mod load when i start up the server

but when i go to create server to test it out, i am not listed as an admin, and when i try to use rcon to add myself as an admin, it tells me that rcon cannot be connected to remote server (ip) or something along the lines of that.

i am also not able to connect to the server through internet either

and i have opened the port for rcon, and used rcon_address "ip address" also, in server.cfg and it is password protected

so any help would be a great relief, since i wasted most my day trying to do this

[Filoret]

simple way to add admin in mani
create adminlist.txt in \cfg\mani_admin_plugin, write there you ID or IP (localhost if server on the same machine)
start server adminlist.txt will be converted to clients.txt

[bluegra]

so i creat an adminlist.txt and in there, i write my steam id, or ip, then when i start the server, it will be convereted to clients

ill try that now

[bluegra]

well it didnt work, i am still unable to use rcon, or activate the binded admin

[Filoret]

server at the same machine? or remote?

[bluegra]

the server is at the same machine

but it tells me it cannot connect to a remote server

[bluegra]

i also found out that when i entered my ip and port in the srcds shortcut.lnk>properties>shortcut, the server i entered when i clicked on "create server" on the counter strike menu is a regular server, but without the port or ip in there, it would be the server i am hosting

[Poolday]

If it's at the same machine , did you try putting 127.0.0.1 ? As for the I.P part .

[bluegra]

well i put it in the command line, and its up, but i cannot join it

edit

in more detail, it told me that connection failed after four retries

im not sure if others can join it, ill try and get back on that

[bluegra]

just tested and my friends cant join either

--edit--

also in the dedicated server window, it says "unable to resolve rcon address 127.0.0.1:27015"

so im guessing rcon still does not work

[bluegra]

well now i just took off the ip and port in the command line on the srcds shortcut file, and i am able to join the server, but my friend sees it as server not responding

and he cannot join

so i rcon still isnt working

so im not sure whats up lol

[Filoret]

Just post the command you use to start up your server

[bluegra]

oh this is it

C:\SRCDS\srcds.exe -console -game cstrike -autoupdate -tickrate 33 -maxplayers 4 +map de_dust2

edit

also, changing the to sv_lan 1 did nothing
