If one, than all, an admin issue.

[BrutalConcept]

Alright, I'll keep this simple.  The long and short is that whenever I set one person to have admin access in my server, everyone gets it.  I'm the only superadmin, so thats not the big issue, its that I have a friend who I want to give admin rights, but cant because when I do every mingebag from here to next week gets 'em.

Now, I figure this could be fairly easily fixed if I could get another way to set admin status.  Like if there was a config floating around my gmod directory somewhere that held that kind of info.  If not, maybe you guys have some other suggestions?

This happens if I host either a listen or a ded.

(after digging around a bit) I'm using a legal 100% good boy version of gmod.

Heres what I actually want to know, after digging around my gmod directory for a while:  What exactly is it that I put in the data/ulib/users file to add users?  It seems that with myself in there I was defaulting to superadmin, so I figured if I added my friend he would instantly be an admin and the problem would be solved (erm, side note, I deleted what was already in there when I was kind of drunk and dicking around with it... heh, oops.)

IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE:  I don't actually know how to get someones steam ID... Yeah, I'm sure that makes me a dumbass, but I guess if I never ask, I'll never know.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Is this a LAN server or are people from the internet connecting?

Internet

After you've added someone and other people are getting access when they should not, run "ulx debuginfo" at the server console. It will tell you where to look for a text file it generates; get that file and post it here.

After you've added someone and other people are getting access when they should not, run "ulx debuginfo" at the server console. It will tell you where to look for a text file it generates; get that file and post it here.

[BrutalConcept]

yeah I know, if youll note I made mention of the fact that nobody was connected yet, and then I'd update, give me a mo please. (side note, can you please tell me what to put in my users file to re-add myself as an auto superadmin?  That would help me out a lot so that I can, at least, have admin powers for my server while we fix on this)

[Megiddo]

You edited your post to say that 15 seconds before I posted...

[BrutalConcept]

Well, you should know better than to try and help people so quickly and efficiently.   

At any rate, I've managed to fix this issue, somehow, by just freaking out and copying my entire gmod directory into my ded's gmod directory.  Why this works, god only knows, but it sure does.

That said, I have a few new problems with some of the ulx addons (namely uclip not working on props) but I believe they're mostly related to prop protection so I guess ill have to take my butt over to the gmod forums.

Thanks again for all the help!
