I have tryed a few different commands in the dedicated server's console. But none seem to work.
I have also tryed to add a command line in the target area of the server startup shortcut.
The one other thing i tried was to add set sv_punkbuster "1" in my cfg file, and still wouldn't work. I am pretty much stumped.

I get this when i start the dedicated cod console

"PunkBuster Server: 0 Aliases Written to pbalias.dat
PunkBuster Server: 0 Stat Records Written to pbstat.dat
PunkBuster Server: Preparing to Disable PB Server... (C:\GAMES\Call of Duty\pb\)"

No matter what i try my server doesn't enable punkbuster i get this when i check status with rcon "sv_punkbuster 0"
so i know its there but not working.

any ideas would be very much appreciated.

Hmm, our clan has a server with multiple installations on same ip, the difference are the ports, we have f.e. 28960, 28961 and so on, how to handle this, i can get only one installation running with pb currently...
HHHHHHEEEELPPPP, please

I'm a server admin, is there anything special that needs to be done in order to run multiple game servers with PB from the same server computer?

Yes. Each instance of the game server must have its fs_homepath server cvar set to a distinct location. Fs_homepath can be set on the command line that launches the server and admins should set up a separate directory for each running server instance and make sure the various running servers point to those separate directories. For example, say you have servers A, B and C. You can create the following directories:
/users/whatever/cod-a
/users/whatever/cod-b
/users/whatever/cod-c
Then in your command line for launching server A, add "+set fs_homepath /users/whatever/cod-a" to the other parameters you have. Add similar corresponding items to the command lines for servers B and C. By doing the above, the multiple PB servers don't conflict with each other during updates.

i did all the fs_homepath stuff, prob was that maprotate didnt work, adding +wait1 +map_rotate in shortcut solved it now.
