----
Q:>How do I enable remote console so i can connect with BFRM Utility?
To enable the Remote Console add the following command to ServerAutoexec.con;

admin.enableRemoteConsole <username> <password> [<port>]

where 

<username> and <password> are the username and password you will need to connect with the server. 
<port> is the TCP/IP port address reserved for the Remote Console.
  
Warning:
	If you are behind a firewall you may want to set some firewall rules to 
	allow a certain ip address to that specific port. This feature is also a 
	vulnerability so be aware and check your logs. By doing this you can still 
	have fun and be a bit more secure.
