[ArdTheSheep]

Step 1:  Go in-game, and type '/genauthkey <some secret password here>

Step 2: Copy the keys.. somehow.

Step 3: put the PUBLIC KEY, in the servers SERVER-INIT.CFG in this format:

adduser <name> <server auth> "THE PUBLIC AUTH KEY HERE" <master/admin>

Example: adduser somerandomnoob jimdandy "erapguhf3nq4-e9g0bvhn8un" admin

then they can go on the server, and type /auth jimdandy, and they get admin.


Step 4: put the PRIVATE KEY, in your AUTOEXEC.CFG in this format:

authkey <name> "PRIVATE AUTH KEY HERE" <server auth>

Example: authkey somerandomnoob "erpguidfhbn24qw-9fubn" jimdandy

Step 5: MAKE SURE THE NAME IN SERVER-INIT.CFG MATCHES THE ONE IN AUTOEXEC.CFG

Step 6: MAKE SURE THE SERVER AUTH IN SERVER-INIT.CFG MATCHES THE ONE IN AUTOEXEC.CFG

Step 7: go on the server and test it.  /auth <server auth here>
