How to Become an Admin on an Arma Reforger Server ​

There are two ways to get admin rights on your Arma Reforger server: via an admin password or via your Steam64 ID.

Set Admin Password ​

  1. Open your dashboard and select your Arma Reforger server.

  2. Navigate to the settings and enter your desired password under Admin Password.

  3. Save the settings and restart the server.

Important

The admin password must be at least 3 characters long and cannot contain spaces.

Permanent Admins via Steam64 ID ​

Alternatively, you can permanently add players as admins so they don't need to log in each time.

  1. Open the file config.json and find the "admins" entry in the "game" section.

  2. Add the Steam64 IDs of the desired admins:

    json
    "game": {
      "admins": [
        "76561198XXXXXXXXX",
        "76561198YYYYYYYYY"
      ]
    }
    "game": {
      "admins": [
        "76561198XXXXXXXXX",
        "76561198YYYYYYYYY"
      ]
    }
  3. Save the changes and restart the server.

  2. Enter the following command:

    #login YourAdminPassword
    #login YourAdminPassword
  3. A confirmation message will appear upon successful login.
