Setting Up Admin Access on Your Quake Live Server
Manage player permissions, grant admin access, or ban players on your Quake Live dedicated server using access.txt.
Managing player permissions -- including granting administrative privileges or banning players -- is essential for maintaining a healthy gaming environment. Quake Live uses a file called access.txt to handle player permissions.
