[bf1942] exploit for Linux server?

[Lee Latham]

hnmm, you know, the messages I saw were complaining about lag, now that I 
think about it.  That makes a lot of sense--

btw, how _do_ you inentionally create a grey server message?  I've been 
fiddling with admin.servermessage (I believe) but it keeps giving me syntax 
errors...
