… It’s been a few days that the auth server is down, and i really want to play in my few days that i have time this summer. I won’t get you banned or wtf ever, i only play one server anyway, 2.55.
Please PM me. I can send you a few bucks via Paypal if needed. (But atm it’s empty, but i get some pay this month.)
Yeah but as some guys say the auth server is down,so you always fail to get one.I dunno…I’ll see if I got some old key on a backup…
Make your own.
etkey is structured as follows :
[B]0000001002[/B]2010[B]07[/B]13[B]001505191[/B]xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
[ul]
[li]10 bytes (0000001002) = ???[/li][li]4 bytes (2010) = year[/li][li]2 bytes (07) = month[/li][li]2 bytes (13) day[/li][li]9 bytes (001505191) some kind of time[/li][li]39 bytes = some kind of hash / security check[/li][/ul]
PB’s GUID is generated from the 27 bytes of the: ???/year/month/day/time parts. The game uses the current date/time for convenience so that no two etkeys are the same, but these bytes can be any character.
The last 39 bytes are some sort of hash/security feature that I don’t think is used, and don’t seem to be needed.
So basically, all etkey needs to contain is 27 arbitrary characters/bytes.
well no auth server to check file content so basicly etkey file itself is needed and anything in it… and after auth is back any self generated etkey will fail

Interesting, but i doubt you can get something valid. The chance that the “random” keycode is generated with the sue of the date, is quite high.
I don’t think the auth server does any checks though. But if it does, you could just firewall it, making it pointless in the first place…
then youll get “PB GUID AUTH UNKNOWN” or any of comunication failure/heartbeats stoped PB kick i think 
Ah right…I didn’t realise that PunkBuster is needed to get an etkey in the first place (I should have paid more attention to the first few posts)
A home-made etkey definitely works for now at least anyway.
no need to put a key that’s similar to the true ones, since guid auth is off, when it’s back, just let it make a key for you.
some server ot here is not responding for queries thats the whole conspiracy behind it
[QUOTE=triffid123;196665]Hello folks, i got this problem after an even bigger problem with ET just a few days ago. Thie game decided that it was gonna refuse to load, after i figured out how to fix it i had the same problem as this, no etkey file and any punkbuster server would not let me play. I found the solution though.
Create a file using notepad called “etkey” (without the quotes) into the etmain directory (C:\Program Files\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory\etmain), delete the .txt at the end of the etkey file so it does not have an extention and open it with notepad and copy and paste this into the new file:
7yrhsdndhdjsuwye
This is a random key i made that is not linked to any game so dont worry.
run ET and when it starts bring down the console with the ` button and type in
/pb_cdkeyreg
and then
/pb_myguid
…try and play on a normal server, you should now be able to enter the servers, if you get kicked after a short period of time because of an invalid CD key message, restart ET and follow the above CONSOLE ONLY steps again and this time PB should alocate you a working key automatically and then it will delete the etkey file itself, after this the game should work fine.
Please post here to let me know if this worked for you.[/QUOTE]
Googled this before when I had the same problem and yes, it helped
lies. if two same guids meet at same sever might result at kicking both players or same guid as you using will get a ban on streaming server few ppl with same guid might be kicked at other streaming servers.
thats why i proposed to put inside this file some random number so such situation mentioned above could not happend…

You should never edit your etkey. On all servers where they enforce, auto kick for unknown GUID’s you will be kicked anyways.
EB etkey authentication servers seems to be back online.
