They don't go down; it's just the eqiv. of the 'map' command which drops everyone abruptly. I forgot that my server auto-restarts when it goes down too.

Yeah he is trying to crash servers to get people to play on his.  I'm sure a global ban is in order.
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: XtremeBain on December 17, 2007, 04:38:28 PM
He crashed all 4 of my servers today, they're on restart scripts so I hadn't noticed.

Maybe he got the magical and undetectable hacks of your clan, bain, which can do anything you want to the game. Maybe...
But there's definately something weird going on.

Post by: Bling on December 18, 2007, 10:00:19 AM
Well the command is something you use in every match, thats all I know.

Edit:

Sonny wanted me to paste this for him;

EST-> [11:03:34] Sonny )) I don't "crash" or "hack" server's. I only test a bug. A other german tell me he found a bug in dp². It's a easy dp² command and not a "hack" (all can use it, u don't have to be a operator of these server). If u want u can ban me from the game (perm band or w/e)... But this will never ends, because other ppl know this bug and use it. Unbannme and PM me jits...

Can give you full log if needed.
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: y00tz on December 18, 2007, 10:21:26 AM
Here's the thing though, testing the bug once, then submitting it to Jitspoe is completely different than going to multiple servers and exploiting the bug. 
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: Bling on December 18, 2007, 10:23:15 AM
Yeah I completely agree with you y00tz, I do hope he gets a perm ban for it because it's just senseless.  He just wanted me to paste that so I did. :]

Edit: Another message from Sonny;


[11:31:38] Sonny )) tell yootz that iam dont crash all these servers
[11:31:47] Sonny )) other ppl do this
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: Edgecrusher on December 18, 2007, 10:34:59 AM
I do not approve what Sonny did. But perm-ban? Yes I might be subjective on this matter since he's my team mate, I'll talk to him to understand why, maybe he'll give me some more info.

What ever happens, I don't think perm-ban should be handed out so easily. He had clean record so far.
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: Bling on December 18, 2007, 10:38:07 AM
Well the way it was going it looked like everyone wanted a perm ban, so I was just looking ahead, maybe too far?
Anyways, he also said;

[11:36:26] Sonny )) iam kidding vici... i never crashed otbs or memi servers. that are german servers
[11:36:38] Sonny )) and i don't crash servers from my fiends

vici he means ViciouZ I think, and fiends I think he means friends.

Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: XtremeBain on December 18, 2007, 11:56:52 AM
You can't exactly call it testing when you go through and kill almost every NA server (including all of the B20 test servers which aren't on auto-restart scripts).  Not killing his friend's servers?  Sorry that I ever let him use my servers for his tournaments, and didn't complain at all when he very blatantly copied (http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=10608.0) my entire tournament thread (http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=10285.0) for his most recent tournament (I let him "use" the rules).

I've found exploits to get the rcon password from numerous servers, but I've always handled it behind closed doors with the server admins or jitspoe himself when necessary.  The fact that he didn't even discover this just reaffirms my beliefs that he's a worthless script-kiddie.  He couldn't figure out how to make a match script in PHP with 75% of the code, and I'm glad that no one finished it for him.  If it isn't already a joomla module, don't expect it to be on leezerz.com any time soon.  Makes me wonder if he at least ponied up the 30 euros to use that theme he's got on there or if he's pirated that as well...
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: firefly on December 18, 2007, 12:05:46 PM
Maybe it wasn't him? Maybe someone went on his computer while he was away (like a sibling or friend (ex - friend that should be) and did this. Maybe they were jealous of him


Or maybe he did it.
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: Reed on December 18, 2007, 12:12:02 PM
Hmmmm, it seems that our server is still under attack from an unknown source. Someone has crashed it at least 3 times today, but there are no recorded console commands in our logs.

Is there anyway I can record that to see who the culprit is? (I'm pretty sure its not Sonny)

Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: Krewzer on December 18, 2007, 12:20:22 PM
set display_commands 1

add that to your server.cfg file
it'll show every command being sent to the server, so your log size will increase by quite a bit.

also make sure you have: set sl_logging 2 and set sl_logging server#.log

I'm disappointed in Sonny.

Post by: DrRickDaglessMD on December 18, 2007, 12:35:32 PM
I'm very dissapointed to see this, especially seeing as our server was hit too (so not 'just' N.A servers).

This annoys me because of the attitude of the people who think it's funny to do this - DP might be a free game but server admins pay money to run servers for everyone's benefit, not for idiots to go around wasting other peoples money.

He clearly didn't just crash one server for testing. My server was also a victim (and (I thought) we happened to be on good terms at the time too).

Beyond that, someone tried to crash my server again overnight. =/
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: XtremeBain on December 18, 2007, 12:53:14 PM
Can someone who has logged (or simply happens to know) the command please message me and the other respected server admins.  The simple solution until jitspoe gets settled, is to add a new line to commands.txt with the command and setting it to a high oppasslevel (250 or whatever applies for your server).

Mine crashed again today, as well as yesterday. Sad especially as he was in my clan at the time (even using my tag :( ). Like Dagless said, the worst thing about it is we are paying money to let people play for free, and people cant play because he puts down the servers.
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: Viper on December 18, 2007, 02:14:31 PM
Okokok....

At first it isnt a hack or something excrement like this

story :

Yesterday we (#darkness) played a match vs OvP on chilidogs , then frozer said on ts : " EDIT" ( was a joke)
So i wrote "edit" into the console, after that the server crashed. after the restart of the server (otb autorestart) , i tried it again.... -> server down...

so i connected to OTB Speed server and tried it .... -> server down
i told it to my members and to sonny and the most of them tried it out , so many server went off.

mmmh... its a paintball glitch , i think , and im sure , jits can fix it.
hopefully czechs dont read this forums, becuase everyone can do this...

So pls , dont ban us or somethink like this, i think , the most of them ,who crashed a server , are sorry about that

The 'edit' only works with values over 1026 or below -1026, as far as my testing shows. Hope this helps jits.
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: Reed on December 18, 2007, 02:31:44 PM
I can wholly understand doing it once on the servers, but doing it multiple times?

Plus DaRK'Kakashi crashed ours as recently at 6pm today, knowing full well what would happen.
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: sk89q on December 18, 2007, 02:36:33 PM
I apologize. I just crashed a GT server. Someone told me the wrong integer for the exploit and I tested it on my server -- didn't work. I tried it on GT's server -- no work, but then someone gave me another suggestion, and it did work. The server was empty though (which is why I chose it). I tested it on my server right when it was at the end of a round after having alerted everyone about my test.

Although I just got a PM with the right integer. PM came a little too late. :P

Again, sincere apologies. I was skeptical.
Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers

Title: Re: Sonny crashing servers
Post by: sk89q on December 18, 2007, 03:02:18 PM
In my case, it didn't, since I have it on auto restart and the commands file needed to be reloaded sometime. BUT, you could have tested it on an *empty* server, if you were so curious... or even your own local server. My server was packed at the time.

It caused trouble if you did it on a server with people playing on don't you think?

Post by: XtremeBain on December 18, 2007, 03:16:40 PM
Well seeing as no one can contain this discovery, everyone can consider themselves perm-banned if they "test" it on any of my servers.  I'm going to be auditing all server crashes until this gets fixed.  If you're looking for some harmless fun, type in a zbot command and play until you throw up.

Well seeing as no one can contain this discovery, everyone can consider themselves perm-banned if they "test" it on any of my servers.  I'm going to be auditing all server crashes until this gets fixed.  If you're looking for some harmless fun, type in a zbot command and play until you throw up.

100% agreed, this goes for the DarkP server too.

and thanks for the heads up XB on the intermediate fix :)

Everyone can consider themselves warned for ANY server.

[OTB]Kongo - 5085
DaRk`viper - 5313
.Ij.QueeNiE - 18567

seeya...

I was curious, so I gave all the server commands a spin and ran upon one that reproduces this fine functionality. Not sure if it's the same, but a temporary cure is pretty easy.

Edit your gamex86's and rename the offending command strings to something else. Only replace characters.

I guess that might get your server global banned or something queer, but living life on the edge is exciting.

edit: Let me clarify "edit": use a hex editor, like xvi32 for Windows -- search for the string and mangle it.

What percentage of these dedicated servers are Win32.... There's a much easier solution and most server admins have received a PM with the work around.

Just thought I should mention for Reed, DarkP just rebooted itself seemingly on its own accord.
Time: 23:20 roughly

Ugh, this would happen when my computers are packed up in a cube and I'm in the middle of a relocation crysis.  Fortunately I backed up all of my important data to a USB drive before packing that I have with me, so I might be able to compile a fix on my laptop (if Linux behaves itself).  I'll admit, this was a really bad piece of coding on my part.  I see Sonny crashed the EV1 servers as well:

88.74.160.246, ID 5263

I'm going to go ahead and ban him now and let the committee decide on how long.

It was me who crashed the server.  (Miklman)  Sonny had told me the interger and I was testing it out.  Hope it didn't cause any trouble.

Well, after 'testing' it on sk89q's server you entered the command on our server just five minutes later, knowing full well that it would crash the server. At the time the server had around 17 people on.

[12:57:37] cmd: miklman *evil command of death*

Dissapointing =/

So you just delete everyone's comments about how unfair it is to ban him and only him and that makes the committee's decision ok? This is crazy. you're censoring valid points by me and especially Edgecrusher, to make you guys look better.

I must say I disagree Knack. Only Y2j, Cola and myself stood by to defend why not to ban Sonny, and if he still gets banned so should Brock, sk89g and some others.

Yes, maybe it was on the verge to become a flamefest, but you could also locked the topic since our opinions were out there. And I would like for the rest of community to have read them. And now they can't. And Sonny was like I said, a victim goat. I'll just state here, I'm really dissapointed in where this went, I expected more from Global Moderators, again, you could have just locked the topic.

Sad and pissed me.

Well here's my two cents, Sonny found a bug, didn't report, rather he exploited it by crashing multiple servers.  Look at the logs from ViciouZ in the first post, he was clearly calling it a hack, and took it as a joke.  The only way it could get reported is if he spread it, and he did.  Now, someone had to test it to see if Sonny was giving the right command, otherwise it can't get patched.  Those who tested it on a single server, or particularly their own server, I can see them getting off a little easier.  But I'm sure the wrath of the committee will come down on Sonny.  I doubt it's a permanent ban, I plea that it's not a permanent ban, I'm all for second chances.  Thead locked, all discussion is a matter of opinion in this case.

Haven't seen such a bullexcrement for a very long time. Where was the fing sense in testing the bug AFTER this topic was opened? ... I was not surprised seeing the names of some old friends from cD.

hm im not really excited that all of you guys care that much...
look at you and your names all of you talk about we crashed the game so the others couldnt play and have fun.
but only about 30% of the guys who are writing in here play this game momentarilly.
and banning guys for 32days is much i think cause they used that bug for about 1 day maximum

Nice try to distract from the problems caused by idiotic behaviour. Exploiting, and in that case it was clearly exploiting, is causing a ban. And I still don't see the sense in crashing "2or4" servers. It seems even more stupid than using hacks to me, because it doesn't even bring you advantages. It's only destructive and useless.
btw: your comment shows me that you are either one of those crashing servers or a member of cD(found out you are Snipaaaah, so I maybe landed a double hit? :P) trying to tell me, everything I say is just because MeMi dies, which by the way is not a fact, but a possibility.

EDIT: Banning should of course be kept for those who used the bug several times, knowing what it causes. And of course ppl who just "tried it once" should NOT be banned, but being given a warning or whatever. Some of them already apologized, so it's ok.

Why do people see a bug or server crash and dont report it?

It will solve loads more problems, and moderators, commitee, adminastrators can solve the problem more quicker.

hatecrew, just see the opposite of us (MeMi) und u. we still exist since over 3 years, did never need a new clanname und never hacked and so on. how about a little bit more respect? were the oldest existing european clan.
