Security for Quantium and Metallic Servers

fusheelantreeno

I finally have a server working. I cant host dedicated but its okay, as long as I can do what I like. I do however have a security issue. The first day I was hosting a friend of mine was able to make himself superadmin in a split second. This was a heads up for me to go into my server and figure what I can do to prevent this and other problems. Any suggestions?

Did you happen to ask your friend how they obtained it? If you're running Metallic, there isn't any backdoor to give people powers. He was likely using the game's sad("password"); which checks if the inserted password matches your $Host::AdminPassword value.
The password can be set on the advanced options page of the "Host" tab.

Well, it's Blitz and he's a friend irl so he likes to mess with me and he won't tell. He says all he did was "work his magic". Oh yeah and Im using Metallic not Quantium

Admins are overrated
