Why do people always blame ULX?
« on: March 02, 2014, 03:48:26 pm »
Why is it that as soon as a server gets hacked, and some ones rank gets set to a higher rank then it should be, people instantly blame ULX...

Code: Text
  1. Friend: server got hacked :(
  2. Me: Any thing specific happening?
  3. Friend: Access to console
  4. Friend: joining with lots of steam ID's
  5. Friend: SO I shutdown the server.
  6. Friend: I got banned.
  7. Friend: And now im trying to fix stuff.
  8. Friend: Also she was called lucy and able to phys gun players and kill them
  9. Friend: ulx breach?
  10. Me: First put this in your server cfg
  11. Me: rcon 0; rcon_password "_"; sv_rcon_maxfailures 2; sv_rcon_minfailures 1; sv_rcon_banpenalty 10080;
  12. Me: Make sure to actually put an rcon password and put all that in your command line.
  13. Friend: g2g
  14. Friend: until tomorrow
  15. Me: That disables rcon
  16. Friend: so talk then...

Because just as much as ULX makes it easy for a server superadmin to run server commands, ULX makes it just as easy for anyone with an exploit to run commands (through exploited player or console)

I get blamed for anything that goes wrong at work too, so I seem to be the common denominator. ;)
