If you have the server on linux, I would suggest you to connect to your machine by ssh and work directly in shell. It gives you capabilities, that any of most expensive web interfaces will ever do. And it is for free.
If you really want web interface, you can use what you probably already have. Just enable punkbuster and try PunkBuster Server WebTool. Its enough to set pb_sv_HttpPort, pb_sv_HttpAddr and pb_sv_HttpKey in pbsv.cfg, and voila.
Ask someone to write script in PHP.
Its possible make it, but php is not enough. You need permission to linux system. Who is admin of your server? U ? If u want controling q3 on this way (linux processes via web interface), its need security
i have made one for my server
it's VERY simple php script (8 kb) that relies on hardcored defaults
it allows you to stat / kill / restart q3 server instances with given (via html form) parameters. however it's difficult to manage several server instances as you would have to change the form values every time.
the way it starts or kills quake3 server instances (q3ded) is SUDO(
so you need system access to:
1) add a user for running q3ded processes under its name
2) add sudoers file entries that would allow user apache (or user nobody) to execute q3ded and /bin/kill under q3 username.
3) use htpasswd to protect your script
also it imply your q3 server installation is split in two parts
one is in /usr/local/... (executables, packs, doc, static scripts) and second is in /var/... (configs)
P.S.
actually i don't like it.
it was ok for 1 month of usage but lately I understood that it's not a proper way to manage q3.
i want to write a special service in C that would manage q3 instances using its own config file and it would provide access to interactive controll via sockets or IPC. that would be really correct way. but i dunno when I'll get time to implement this..
u look its very expensive from 40 - 500 € lol?
Its dont help me!!! And i dont search a comlite Pandel lol !
