    Are you forwarding the rcon.port on your router? Are you connecting from the same network or remotely?

    Could provide any details? You may want to check Rusty's support thread as well.

    Rust doesn't have an interactive console on Linux, you'd need to use RCON.

    Neither of those are valid commands as mentioned in the Overview. The rcon.password can only be set in your startup script.

    There is some way of seeing the list of administrators or the people with permissions?

    Admin in Rust don't have permissions, just auth level 2 or 1 based on if they are added with ownerid or moderator. You can see the list of users under server/identity/cfg/users.cfg.

    Completely new to all of this. Ive got everything working for the most part but I have 2 owners on my Users.cfg, myself and another. I can easily type say, "grant user SillyBillyWTF (owner id nick name) xpbooster.*" and itll work. But when i type the other owner's nickname, it says "User not found". Tried to make them as a Moderator instead but same error. Double checked their SteamID64, everything is correct and the command works if i use their SteamID64. Is there a way to make it easier for myself to grant mod permissions with just their given nickname or do i have to do it through their steamid?

    The name needs to start exactly as they have it set, capitalization and all. You can do it by their 64-bit Steam ID too. If the user is not found, they are literally not found by that name or ID.

    Ahh okay cus ive tried it as exactly as it was typed on the Users.cfg but still cant find the user :/ Im just glad it works through their steamid64. Like for my name, i can type it out with no capitalization and itll still find my full steam name and grant permissions. Is it possibly because i have them set to Owner as well? Oh, and thank you for the quick reply! Very much appreciated :D

    Yes, they can be owner and moderator, but there isn't really a point as they are essentially the same in Rust.

    How do I removed an admin and a moderator? I use Host Havoc and when I removed them from users.cfg and hit save then go in the console and do writecfg, it adds them back :/

    removeowner ID
    removemoderator ID

    server.writecfg

    When you use server.writecfg, it writes that the server has in memory to file. If you want to manually edit the file while the server is running, you'd need to use server.readcfg.

    Yes, but there isn't a point of doing that when there is a users.cfg file that you should use.

    So, the users.cfg file is supposed to be in the same directory as the server.cfg file?
    Also, do I even need the server.cfg file for Rust Experimental?
    Its just that I seem to have to create all the cfg files and directories by myself through a console, so it can become slightly confusing.
