This guide focuses on the manual method of using rcon, alll commands are entered via the console. To bring the console down press the ` key at the top left of you keyboard (Under the escape key)


As well as the /rcon login password you can put the login in your shortcut target line as well.

"C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\iw3mp.exe" +rcon login ***** +password **** +connect ***.**.***.***


That will connect you with rcon logged into a private slot to a specific server. This is the basics of rcon commands

A further set of console commands are listed below:

Here's another version with more details.....

Kicking players
There are a few ways in which to kick players, but I'm only going to cover the easiest and best way to do so. It involves using the status and clientkick commands. I prefer using this method of kicking as it prevents you from having to type out a player
