this may have been asked before but i cant find it so sorry if it has.
Im running clanmod on my dedicated server and im trying to set it so other ppl can use the admin abilities (i can use it myself connecting via lan) but they just keep getting the this tag is reserved when they sign in with the name i reserved for the admin. i know you have to edit your config.cfg file on their computer to include the password line (setinfo "_cm_pw" "password") and it has to match the password in my servers admin.cfg (and yes they do have all the flags set for them) file but it still wont let them connect.
ive set up the bind key for them to open clanmod menu and at one point i managed to get one of the guys in but when he tried accessing it, it just said you can not access clan mod menu (im guessing it didnt actually log him in as admin.)
its the clanmod 1.81 i think its the beta one anyway.
would anyone be able to offer some advice? <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

1 - Have your clients create an adminpass.cfg in their NS directory. In that file put:
setinfo _serverpass assignedpass
developer 1
echo [ADMIN] password has been set on client
developer 0
2 - have them create a shortcut with the following target:
C:\SIERRA\Half-Life\hl.exe -console -game ns +exec adminpass.cfg +connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port
3 - Heres an exapmle of cm_admins.cfg:
cm_admin "123456" "assignedpass" "rJkAKBC" "name"
*note* _serverpass is whatever you assined in the clanmod.cfg as the cm_passwordfield.
This works perfectly for me and my admins.
Any ideas why?
