Ok I'm not posistive but I believe when a dedi server is rented there is an option to make it public or private. Private servers are passworded 24/7, while public can be either, however public servers can hold more, higher bandwith I think is another way of saying it. When you rent one you should get all the details about it. I personally never join our dedi through the server list. Inputing direct i.p is by far the quickest way to get in.
Options for a dedi server can be accessed through the ftp, which can probably be found in the server info on the site that you were assigned the server. You can input info into the server to make it perform cetian actions. Then the server can be controlled in the server using Rcon. To use rcon refer to the stickies.
Like I said I'm not posistive but I think I got some of the finer points.
