Posted: Tue Oct 09, 2012 10:09 am
Since BattlEye Server version 1.102 you now have an option to remotely control your server with an external rcon program. The setup for this is extremely easy and only takes a few minutes.
1. Check your server.cfg and make sure BattlEye is enabled by searching for this line "BattlEye=1;"
To do this, connect to your servers FTP and double click on the "cfg" folder, then copy the "server.cfg" file to your desktop and edit as needed.
2. Create a new file on your desktop and name it "BEserver.cfg"
3. Place the following inside your newly created "BEserver.cfg":
For Arma 3, you will also need to add the following two lines, filling in your server IP address in place of "Your_Server_IP". You can lookup your server's IP via the description tab of your game server control panel.
4. Upload your BEserver.cfg to the "BattlEye" folder in your FTP located in the "cfg">"BattlEye"
5. Download the BE external rcon program and open it up http://www.battleye.com/downloads/BERCon.exe
6. Follow the instructions on how to connect.
**If BattlEye was not already enabled you will need to do enable it then reboot the server so it can create a BattlEye installation in the cfg directory, which allows rcon to work.
