I have a rust server i'm hosting on my own PC. I can jon the server and everything, but I don't have access to anything because I can't use rcon. When I try to set the rcon.password in the server console, it doesnt give me a response and doesnt change it. Has the command changed? What am I doing wrong?
Please reply, i'm really frustrated with this. been searching for an hour and have not found anything.

Don't know if this helps, or if you've tried it in fact -
The password I have to use as an admin is the password that was given to me by the server host (gameservers) - Next you have to make sure that the ip is correct, port & then for RCON Port add 2 to the port number above. For eg "Port - 28016" "RCON Port - 28018"
I've never changed the password through rcon.password - not even sure a lot of the commands work through the console as yet.
I would, write a ticket to your server provider, ask them what the password if you can't see it via your server UI.
*ETA I just re-read your post and you're hosting on your own PC. Can't help there I'm afraid. Maybe try reading the rusty thread [url]http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1350623[/url] I have seen a few comments relating to a different IP to be used 0.0.0.0 or something. Good luck :)

Add this to your startup script.
+rcon.password password* +rcon.ip 0.0.0.0 +rcon.port 5555*
in the game console type global.ownerid yoursteamid*2 followed by writecfg. (You'll have admin rights the next time you join the server)
*Replace with desired password / port
*2Replace with your own steamid

Okay, I'm kind of a noob so I don't really know how to change a startup script... could you leave a link or explain?
