[cod] Running linux server on a different port

[James Landi]

Bryan, I just wanted to say thank for making a great game but also replying
and helping so many people by answering their questions so fast. 

I have been all over most of the CoD fan sites and all I see is [IW] tags.
You guys are everywhere helping everyone!

I am glad I purchased my copy. The game is great, the MP is even greater,
the community is pulling together offering everyone help and the developers
are their when you need them. Your not only helping us, your listening to
us. 

I will definitely be buying more IW games in the future.  

Keep up the good work. 
IW customer for life!

I just had this wierd problem where scr_allow_vote keept getting set to "1"

I had it to 0 in the config, and if i rcon scr_allow_vote "0" it worked and
the callvote menu was not there, but 1min after people were still voting and
the callvote menu was back.

>>> You need to set g_allowvote 0 as well to really get rid of voting.

Also, are there server cvar's for:

Forcing team balance.
Forcing on-connect, auto select side.
Locking Spectator to one side.
Rcon admins "Like ET".
Setting min/max allowed client maxpackets.

>>> Not currently

Are there a server command for map rotation that switches playing sides? so
you can set one map and then play it to the end, switch sides and restart it
without loading?

>>> Not currently as theres no way to force teams, but this should be fairly
easy to do as a mod.

Thanks

exec mapcycle_sd.cfg

I have mapcycle for all modes and can quickly change the mode of the server
by executing just that !

***** Example of my mapcycle_sd.cfg *****

set sv_mapRotation "gametype sd map mp_brecourt gametype sd map mp_carentan
