For some reason it has all of a sudden started working for me? Dont know why but im not going to moan.
As some of you may have noticed i was having a play with it the other night and yep you can do almost anything to the server and keep and eye on the game ie:- what is going on in console....but what use is it i cant keep an eye on the game to see if anyone is being an TANGO all i can do is keep an eye on console and the chat banner..
Is there something im missing?

You're not missing a thing. In fact you've hit the nail on the head.  8)

HLSW is a remote rcon tool. You would need to be watching HLTV in a window to 'see' what's happening.

What is does is allow you to remotely configure the server, send messages, check players against your WONID database e.g. when a player named 'Player' enters the server his WONID is checked against the database you hold locally to see if he's been on the server before with a different name. I got JB thinking I was psychic when he kept joining the server with different names and I would welcome him with a 'Hello JB'. I think I got you a couple of times as well Smitey  :D .

It allows you to kick, ban, unban, warn, map change, CVAR change, monitor and loads of other stuff.

It also allows you to trawl thru the logs it keeps (server log and chat log - set up in settings) to gather evidence of lameness.

We will have to get together on irc soon to run through a few things that im not sure to do but after about an hours worth of playing with it i was starting to get used to it.....and i was keeping an eye on Trip as a few people were not too happy with him but this is being mentioned in another topic.
So oldie where is this log that i can find out what has been happening in previous days and the one where you keep finding peoples aliases?

On HLSW it shows what mods are installed it used to say CLanmod V1.80.19, statsme V2.6.16 and then Adminmod (cant remember version numbers after) but it is missing on both servers for me now but used to be there about 2 weeks ago

I know Doggers is trying to get both servers running totally independant of each other (so that Baldric's configs can be entirely match based) so maybe it's a result of that work.

When HLSW is working again (hopefully soon) then it's worth introducing this small mod to allow multiple HLSW users to see the server logs simultaneously.

At present, if I 'm watching the logs and another admin asks to see them then they are redirected away from me. With this addon that shouldn't happen:

That would be a good idea, as I knwo that this has probably happened to 'us' on a couple of occassions now.  It's not too much of a worry for me at the moment though as you seem to give up pressing the 'Get Server Log' button after I've nicked it from you about 20 times   :D
