[cod] Anyone aware of crash code for COD 1.51b?

[John Kennington]

Yes, there is a server crash exploit for 1.51b and 1.5.  IW knows about it,
but I suspect will not fix it.  They are too busy on CoD2.

{Trv} played a clan last night that dominated us for the first half of
a HQ 4x4 match.  Several of my Vservers had people on it.
(Box is a DUAL 3.2Ghz P4 HT 4G Redhat ES 2.4, 2.6 SMP Kernel.)

Ran fine that entire half, and 5 mins in to the second half until we
started dominating as Allies.  Then all users on this HQ server were
kicked. (All other servers were not impacted at all).  It happened 
3 mins later. Each time there was no error indication in the server
log or console log, simply "Server Shutdown", and time starts at 00:00.

It got so bad, it ended up in a nasty event once they were up 240 to 15.
Then the server started crashing repeatedly. We kicked them and banned
them.

I never restarted the executable. We played on the server (9 of us) 5 vs 4
(Mostly because I am so bad, whoever has be has a disadvantage, so in
this case the team with 4 had the advantage :-0 )  It never crashed once.

Anyone seen this?  This is COD, not COD:UO.

Thanks
