Nice faqs.  Did you ever play Unreal co-op?  I'm sure there are servers up
right now.  I'd host a co-op Unreal game if anyone's interested.

Your server has already been invaded by cheaters.

I came in at about 10:30. It was fun for about an hour till some clown
"Farter" showed up. He got a grenade launcher somehow and fragged
everyone. Sad that one bottom feeder can spoil a good thing.

I had to finally end it after I had no way to ban farter.  I kicked him the
first time and he stayed away for quite a while and sbx and I got to play
until midnight peacefully.   Then at midnight The Farter joined up again, I
kicked him dozens of times and finally gave up and quit since I couldn't ban
him.

Yeah it was fun, thanks. Why can't you ban him? Isn't there a way to
add an IP mask to ban an entire block of addresses?

If I had one of George's admin programs I could probably have banned him.
But quake2 by itself doesn't have any banning capabilities that I know of.

We have played a little unreal co-op here on my lan, but never went very
far.  Since the game didn't have a save feature, and you lose all your
weapons when you die the levels started getting too hard to progress thru.
I was always hoping that they would add a save game feature, but there at
the end they decided against it.  That being said, I would probably be up
for a co-op session sometime, unreal is a great game.  Just wish the co-op
play worked like quake2's co-op play so that you started up after dying with
the weapons you had when you first started that level.

What about sv addip? I havn't hosted a dedicated server so I don't
know anything about it; I just read it in the console doc.

try using linux's netfilter, or freebsd's pf... depending on system you 
use

other systems, of course, have firewall capabilities, too, eg. windows' 
zonealarm

using a firewall is a must these days, i wonder why people still bother 
not installing it...

Upon further inspection, it didn't work. Should have tried it to
begin with. Why does my console doc list that at all?

who say's I don't have a firewall running?  And what makes you think I don't
have 2 firewalls?   I have zonealarm on all of my pc's and  they are behind
a linksys router with it's built in NAT firewall.

so why haven't you filtered this player then? with a packet filter, banning
feature is not needed anymore

because I don't run these servers on a regular basis, and I am not a network
guru.  I thought about trying to block it with zonealarm, but I was afraid I
would end up blocking everybody, so I didn't try.  And I am not sure how to
do it with the router.  I will have to look into this and see what I can
come up with.

If you can provide any info at all on this I would appreciate it.  But at
least you seem to have pointed me along the way.

i'm not a windows user, looks like i can't supply you with exact 
parameters needed to filter a connection to your quake2 server

every reasonable firewall should have a possibility to filter specific 
address/port range, try using these params when filtering incoming 
connections:

port: 27910
protocol: udp
ip address: you should have it already

in linux's iptables it'd look like this:

/usr/sbin/iptables -I INPUT -p udp -s ip_address --dport 27910 -j DROP

it should be similar in your firewall program

These parameters absolutely will not work with a windows system so what's the
point? Its obvious she running a windows OS.

Since he didn't quote the original thread its hard to tell what you are trying
to do? Ban a specific ip address from your server or is someone trying some
malicious activity on your machine?

If they are simply port scanning your machine,  nat and zone alarm should more
than provide adequate protection!

the problem is assholes joining our co-op games and doing nothing but
ruining the fun the rest of us are having.  I had no q2 admin program
running and there is no banning capabilities built into the q2 server
program so they couldn't be banned.  They would be kicked and join back
faster than I could type in to kick them.  I guess the easiest solution
would just be to download one of the admin programs and learn how to use it.

He's trying to keep someone who deliberately frags teammates from
joining a co-op server.

Probably, yeah. Q2Admin seems to be a decent one, IIRC.
