Finding IP address

[Caveman]

Is there a way for a host to find out the IP addresses of the players who log into his/her server?

That file is a log of your connections to Nova's FTP server. Updates etc. The IP address is there FTP server's addy.

Sick puppy!! hehehe I love it! Yes, c4 creates a file called "banned.txt" in the root game directory when you ban a player. It is however a tmp file that is deleted once the server is closed.

actually, even a crappy firewall will usually show you the ip's. any firewall that shows you the running applications, usually shows you the connections. If you have a lot of activity, you will have to brows the log file quickly though to see the ip of someone who just came in, or left. I believe you can also just save the banned file to another directory and restore it when you reboot so that you keep a running ban (if desired) but i haven't had the need to try it, so I don't know if it works for sure.
