RCON CONNECTIONS.. How many?

[Prophecy]

With the invention of CK's auto kick, Delator, using ASE and other programs you are constantly making a remote connection to the server. Now when you do these tools and use the INGAME console as well for rcon that seems to time out the server. Of course then you have RCON hungry clan members who have rcon as well who are logged in as well so this laggs out the command sequence.

So exactly how many RCON connections can you have with out getting timed out errors?

thanks

In theory, unlimited. I think CrowKing stated this on AA.com

Then why oh why are these servers sending back errors on time outs?

Im sure there is a number, I am more that positive that you wouldnt have this issue when only one person is logged and maybe one bot.

Being logged in does not have control over rcon. Only when you actually send an rcon command.

Maybe Crowking can explain it better.

We run two servers with Ilangame over at the UGC and have had problems with two members accesing rcon at the same time resetting the server. It's hard to tell if it's only when they are both logged into the console or if its commands being sent at the same time. Either way we get a reset once a month or so.....alot more when we used to let members change maps.....then once a week...lol

Ive had some problems with rcon and what seemed to be too many users. CK and RD are right. What usually happens is 2 admins send commands at the same time and neither work. This also applied to autokick.

You're right RudeDog. I think that CrowKing explained it here:
