Hey Folks,
I have tried to find this in existing threads but can only seem to find the rcon commands…
Can some one please provide instructions on how to setup your server to use RCON and then how to connect to the RCON using the client control panel?
Thanks for your help in advance.

RCON access
The SERVER must set:
net_serverRemoteConsolePassword <rcon password>
The CLIENT must set:
net_clientRemoteConsoleAddress <server IP address>
net_clientRemoteConsolePassword <rcon password>
With those set, prefixing console commands with rcon on the client is equivalent to typing them into the dedicated server console window.
Connected to the game server, you mean - I don’t know about that, but with the address set you don’t actually have to be in the game session to send rcon commands.
net_clientRemoteConsoleAddress is only needed if you want to change rcon settings to your server without being actually connected to it
e.g. you dont know what your g_password is to the server
so you net_clientremoteconsoleaddress to your servers ip/port
net_clientremoteconsolepassword ‘password’
then you can just rcon g_password password to change it to what ever you like without being connected to it
you dont need net_clientRemoteConsoleAddress if you are connected to the server
Heheh it took me a while before i found out how this was working.
I use in the console for a kick:
net_clientremoteconsolepassword ‘password’
rcon g_password ‘password’
For a kick:
admin kick +tab
rcon admin kick +slotnumber
Is this the correct way to dothat?
Cos without the first line: net_clientremoteconsolepassword ‘password’
I get a constand: you have no permission to kick players.
rcon g_password ‘password’ isn’t needed as this should already be set in your server config
But for the rest of it, yes
g_password is the password to JOIN the server, nothing to do with rcon
net_clientremoteconsolepassword is the ADMIN/RCON password
