From the online manual for CoD2 (disk 1)
Remember that you can start a dedicated server from in-game, changing all of the most common values from within the UI, from the Start Server menu.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Activision® Customer Support does not support console commands. Please do not call with questions or problems that arise from the use of console commands.
Command Line Options
Command line options must be set on the command line and will not work if executed in a config file.
net_ip
If you are on a multi-homed server and the default IP is not what you want to use for your Call of Duty® 2 server, the net_ip command will need to be used. This must be set on the command line in the following form.
Usage: +set net_ip <ip address>
Sample: CoD2MP.exe +set dedicated 1 +set net_ip 192.168.0.0
net_port
Changing the default server port requires the net_port command be run on the command line. It is useful for running multiple servers on the same computer or making the server somewhat more private. The default port is 28960 and is incremented automatically by 1 if another server is started without a specified port.
Usage: +set net_port
Sample: CoD2MP.exe +set dedicated 1 +set net_port 28961
Server Only Settings
Server settings are only used only on the server and may be used at the console or command line. Command line usage requires a +set before each command.
For example:
+set sv_maxclients 16
sv_maxclients
sv_maxclients - sets the maximum amount of clients that can connect to the server. The default setting is 20.
Usage: sv_maxclients
sv_hostname
sv_hostname - sets the server name that will show up in the master server list. The name must be enclosed in quotes if a space is in the name.
Usage: sv_hostname "<servername>"
sv_pure
sv_pure - controls crc/zip check of client pk3 files to make sure the pk3 file has not been modified for cheating or other purposes. Client pk3 files must match that of the server to connect. The default is set to 1, or on. Set to 0 to turn off check.
Usage: sv_pure 1
Server Console Commands
Server console commands are used from the server console or the remote console.
status
status - shows the client number (num), score, ping, player name (name), client IP address (address), and port connected through (qport). Client number is used in conjunction with the clientkick command.
Usage: status
kick
kick - removes a player from the server. It is particularly useful for removing disruptive players. To kick a player, type kick and then the player's name.
Usage: kick <playername>
rcon_password
rconpassword - sets remote console password so clients may change server settings without direct access to the server console. The default is set to none. Client can control the server by entering commands on the console with the format of \rconpassword mypass and then adding server commands after the \rcon command.
Usage: /rcon login <password>
killserver
killserver - will stop all server services from running but leaves the Call of Duty 2 executable running on the server.
Usage: killserver
Remember that you can start a dedicated server from in-game, changing all of the most common values from within the UI, from the Start Server menu.
