Is there a way to password protect a server via the launch.bat? like
Server.password {password here}
Thank you, sorry if it's in the wrong place

No, Rust server doesn't have built-in password support. You'd need to use a plugin.

Are there any plugins?

Not yet for Experimental.

I hear that you cant close/lock down a server with a password, is this correct ??
If not I was wondering if anybody would be able to make a IP blocker plugin for server maintenance or when setting up a server and dont want to be disturbed when working ?
Thx in advance ! -
You could use something like the Whitelist plugin to only accept players with a specific SteamId to join the server:

You are right sir but will only solve the problem temporarily, so would be a bit more convenient with a simple command ?

Hello Oxide users,
Just reaching out and wondering is there a way to make a rust server password protected or is the only way to go whitelist? -

Hey everyone, I've done some searching and came up dry. Is there anyway to add a password to an oxide server via the batch file?
Thanks

Wulf can you make a password plugin ? Or a SteamGroup whitelist plugin ?
-
Why dodnt you guys use Universal plugin Whitelist? Or for rust Rust Admin tool console? both have whitelist based on steamID
Whitelist | Oxide
RustAdmin RCON Tool for Rust | Oxide -
Thanks ! I didn't know this plugin xD

Hey. We plan put a password during a speacial time on the server. We could use the stemgroup whitelist but I think the steamgroup ID can not be changed onthefly?!? I do not really want to restart the server.
Best solution would be to set a password onthefly but this is not possible atm. So If I can change the SteamGroup ID onthefly without reset it would be nice. Maybe by loading a new config via RCON. Do you know if this is working?
Thanks and regards

Also, the best password method I could come up with for servers that do not provide a means of entering a password would be handling it in their names. I've got my old plugin overhauled locally to have that as an option in it in addition to the old /password command method. -
