The core game engine has a bug that can cause rcon to be lost when there are more than 16 players, and yeah, it takes damn reboot to fix it - which should never happen. If I knew which process was involved I would tell you so you could kill the errant process. Unfortunately killing the server does not do it.
I believe the message you get back when that happens is just a blank - no response at all. Is that what you are seeing, or are you getting a message of some kind?

I also get the impression you don't expect Stalingrad to be running. Is it not in your config? Is it in any config? If the server has a web restart function it could be improperly configured.

i have Stalingrad in map rotation, but set in 20 minutes to timelimit, today and no vote alowed, today the server is in Stalingrad with no Time limit, this map with no time will be there to fix the rcon problem.

i have the server setting to 28 players and 4 private players, you think that i set to 16 players this bug dont be again? or only when the number of players in the server is more that 16?

[GaSplat]

You can set it higher, the problem only occurs when more than 16 or so are actually in the game.

Note that this bug should not affect map settings.

the only way to fix this problem is Restart the server, but the problem is that i have acces only by remote, anda cant restart the PC server.

someone know if the windows 2003 have a problem with the moh:aa?

im Crazy searching the problem :(

PD: i set the maxplayers on 12, but nothing :(

Just wondering if you got this fix iam have same problem right know dont know how to fix it.

[GaSplat]

Is it affecting map settings, do you get a "no server" message, or does it simply fail to give any response to an rcon command. The one I am aware of simply fails to give any response to an rcon command if there are too many players (and a reboot of the server is the only fix, and its a bug in the basic Q3 engine because other Q3 based games have the same bug).

[MD_hill]

it gives no respones the server runs fine doesnt mess with the maps or anything so iam going to have to get the server company to reboot it for me

Thanks GaSplat
