Hi. We´ve been using rf2 for a long time, hosting several leagues/races. But know, dont know why, we cant apply a password on server. If we dont have password everything is fine. If we apply a password people cant join and get the old "join time out" message. Its not a upper/lowercase nor mistype. Any help? Or anything reported before about this problem? Using b798 (fresh install), rfmod with civic, Poznan, croft, Estoril and Mid ohio.
Yes it is. When problem appeared (since fresh 798 install) only workaround is to remove password. But that is not suitable for us. I will try to deny the get mod option to see if its related.
Mh, beside that problems - I just don´t understand the need for a password anyways. Isn´t it the case that you aren´t able to join if you don´t own the vmod?
Passworded server = closed/private session. no random joiners. Valter, we had this problem as well, i'm not 100% sure but removing old vmods did the trick I think (remove and delete) I'm just not sure anymore if it was client or server side but it wont hurt to test.
Indeed, but old habits die hard I suppose. Anyway, people get offended when you suggest to remove the password.
Yeah, this problem is reported...since B798 passworded server & getmod is broken. Your driver need to download & install all components and the rfmod.
Problem solved. SOLUTION: It was some "old" service from b660 still running. Noticed that when tried to delete old instalation (denied to delete the folder). Restarting machine->deleting previous instalation->b798 server running fine. NOTE: But without password. Passwording server will result on no one able to join. Everybody can join but without password.
OK, but what is solved in your case? I thought, this is your problem, passworded server and getmod not working?
Aparently nothing Just add [SOLVED] prefix before testing with password. In the end it was 2 diferent problems (1 solved). Passwording server still result in problem.
