...the problem is whenever i do the command './teamspeak-server_startscript passwords' as you can see above it returns me superadmin default and admin default passwords.. now i have already changed those passwords via hostname:14534 in the webinterface.. for superadmin and admin the passwords are different .. do i need to update somethign in order to ttake efect or what is the problem thanks a bunch guys

The command "passwords" in the startscript will only return the passwords that were generated when you installed the server, the new passwords are now in a database and you will need a special tool to read it.

I hope this was off some use to you.

iirc, the passwords command reads from the log file and not the database, so when you start the server for the first time the default passwords are printed in plain text in the log file so you can access them

is there a way i can make it read from database? incase i get hacked or some shit like that? u know? im just wanting to jknow all of this for security purposes :confused:

if you have not applied the md5 patch, your passwords are stored in the db in plain text, you could open up the dbs file in a text editor and find it

for best security, get the md5 patch (search it), make all your admin passwords very tough (i'm talking 10+ characters, all random) and lock down all functions you don't need
