Remote RCON program

OK, so you've all seen the program like all seeing eye etc, but i want to write me own on.

I've worked out the data that all-seeing-eye sends to the mohaa servers when it wants to get the status of the server, but if i try and send the same data from my own program, the server just responds with a load of stupid question marks (around 451 to be precise), while the results that are returned to all-seeing-eye are much more meaningfull.

Obviosly, there are some ppl out there who know how it is done and i would greatly appeciate it if one of them would share that info with me

thanks,

Server's are queried by game browsers on "unchallenged" ports, ie they don't need a password to get a response. You're not going to get good results talking to server's on GameSpy or ASE query ports.

You need to talk to the server on the client port (usually 12203) and precede your command string by 4 bytes of 0xff and one byte of 0x02.
