how to ban,
1. On your computer desktop, right-click on the Halo icon and click properties.
2. In the TARGET box that has "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\halo.exe", add:
[space]-console to the end.
3. It should now look like this:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\halo.exe" -console

4. Now open up Halo
5. Start an internet game and press the "~" button; this should make a Halo command promt come up on the bottom of the Halo game screen: it will look like this:

Halo(-

6. Now, in the prompt type sv_players and hit enter. This will bring up a list of numbered players. It will show their SN, ping, and # of TKs: ex:

Ping TKs
1. silentwhisper 0 0
2. georgeyboy 0 1
3. randomman 0 19

(it will look unorganized)

7. Now, suppose you want to ban randomman. First find his number. in this case he is #3. so open the command prompt and type sv_ban 3 and hit enter. If you want to kick randomman then type sv_kick 3 and hit enter.

Now you've kicked that son of a bi0tC|-|. congrats

I'm not sure if this is what you have in mind, but there is something called an init txt builder for writing the init txt. file for dedicated server setup.

It is primarily for use in setting up a dedicated server for Halo CE, but you can still use it for Halo PC.

There are a few places to download it from, but I would like to recommend my website, of course... Happy gaming!

Heyyo,

Remember, you have to have administrator capabilities to ban/kick. Either you use the dedicated server console, or you need rcon enabled on the server and you know the password. Here's the RCON setup: rcon *password here* <command>

Here's an example of rcon in action:

DS Server Rcon password: Test1234

rcon Test1234 sv_kick Digimaster

ROFL, just kiddin' Digi. But yeah, that's how I'd work. ;)
