Web Admin on Linux

[Hoser]

I've heard there is a problem with getting Web Admin going on linux for UT. Anyone know how to fix this? I've just prrchased a server and know they tell me that web admin doesn't work and they don't know how to fix it.

Thx in advance

netcat is the best solution ;)

Thx man.

The better solution is to use xinetd.

To /etc/xinetd.conf add:

service UTAdmin
{
port = 5000
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
redirect = x.x.x.x 5001
}

5000 is the port you will use for opening webadmin for example: http://x.x.x.x:5000/ServerAdmin/ !!!Don't forget about the last slash!!!
and redirect= x.x.x.x 5001 is the ip of the server and port set in the ut ini.

And the last thing you should do before it works is to add:
UTAdmin 5000/tcp
to your /etc/services.

Works perfectly for me. ;)

I just run the 451 Patch, with the most up to date Kernal on my box. Web admin works just fine for all the servers I have.

Oh yeah, and the cpu load is 50% greater than on 436. I've already tested it. I only hope that another UTPG Patch will use cpu just as 436 otherwise I won't uprade to it and cheaters will have green light. :sigh:

Web admin works fine out of the box for me on 2 dedicated linux servers. All I did was change the port in the .ini file read for the games.

Thanks Rush, this really works for me. I downgraded 451 to 436 because of CPU usage problem. Now my 12/12 server does not go higher than 5% against 30-40% I had before. :)
Only issue with webadmin now is that autorefresh of the console does not work. But it's not really important.

I wish people read readmes.... set the ServerURL in SWAConfig to the <WebIP>:<WebPort>
For example if the webadmin url is http://123.123.123.123:8000/ServerAdmin/:
ServerURL=123.123.123.123:8000

Sorry for negligence, but what's SWAConfig and which readme you're referign to? :)

Ok, sorry man, I thought you were using SuperWebAdmin of mine, I thought it was another topic and posted a fast reply. :rolleyes: It fixes the ServerConsole refresh issue on redirected ports. The latest version is here if you're interested: http://www.unrealadmin.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=620

The web-console works fine on 436 with that redirect thingy.

The web-console itself works, however the refresh is not.

use REDIR.
:)
find it on google, install it on your linuxshell.
its also somewhere on these forums.
doesnt need shit like netcat etc etc.

Is it a way to redirect by using IPtables insteed of running another process?

And i don't want to run xinetd so how to do it?

That redirection thing is why some page (current games for exemple) show "error 404 no page" ?

hey, I really got a surprise reeading this post. I've got a server rental business, and one of my Linux servers are running about 12 UT servers on it, and yes, the CPU usage is incredibally high once 7 or more players are on one of those servers.

Should I downgrade to version 436, or 440 to save on CPU usage? and what would the disadvantages of doing this be? I've also got WinServer2003 running many servers as well... just haven't really checked into cpu usage on that machine yet, as it's a real power house, and I know I can comfortably run at least 150 slots on that box.. :)

Rgds.

better 436, and there are more "after" than "against" in doing this ... see 451 changelog if you wish ...
