    I used +rcon.password and I get this error when starting the server.

    Sounds like you're trying to set the rcon.port to be the same as the server.port.

    Do you have symbols or spaces in the password? If so, try putting quotation marks around it and/or removing any symbols.

    Removed some symbols from it, now I only get the red message.
    "SocketException: Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address
    /port) is normally permitted."
    [DOUBLEPOST=1512510813][/DOUBLEPOST]Well well... I changed the rcon port from the default (28016) to something different and it fixed it. I wonder how the default port was having an issue?
    [DOUBLEPOST=1512511155][/DOUBLEPOST]I have a question while I'm here since you may know something about it. I'm using Rusty rcon and I can't seem to connect to the server properly even though all the details should be correct. upload_2017-12-5_17-0-1.png
    [DOUBLEPOST=1512511174][/DOUBLEPOST]Rusty - Server RCON administration tool | Oxide here is the link.
    [DOUBLEPOST=1512511403][/DOUBLEPOST]is adding
    +rcon.ip 0.0.0.0 or
    +rcon.ip 127.0.0.1 fine? that may help I assume
