I do not not why but it seems that I can't ban IP's anymore. When I try there is no message from the server, like "ip xxx.xxx.xxx added to ban list" and the person can join again. However the name ban works fine. Any help would be appreciated on this as I can't ban hackers and idiots from my server :(

the command to ban by ip is /banip, not /ban. are you sure you're using the right command? /banip is working fine for me in the latest dedi server version..

You could check this topic for your banning problem:

All these have been done, still nothing. People just get kicked and not banned :(

*Edit: Hmmm... there seems to be an issue with ftp and web interface, I'll have to check with the host.
