Full Version: Blocked O/s Privileges : 4fd
PunksBusted.com > Game Specific Forums > Quake Series > Quake III Arena
Sturm

Today, Sat Mar 5 2005, Punkbuster Server version 1.50 was released.
Also, Punkbuster Client version 1.53 was released.

I get kicked from servers with the message:
"Blocked O/S Privileges : 4fd"
I have no idea what 4fd refers to.

I prefer to run my games as a non-administrator. I advise everyone else to do the same.
The EvenBalance FAQ lists 5 privileges that are required:
http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=faq-q3.php

Debug Programs
Load and unload device drivers
Manage auditing and security log
Modify Firmware environment values
Profile Single Process

I have double checked that these privileges are enabled for this game user account.
I have run spy-ware checkers.
The obvious assumption is that a new privilege is required, one which is not documented.

If anyone has a clue to what this might be, please inform.

If it is another privilege level then we don't know it yet, however we have contacted EB about it and are awaiting a response.
Bloodwolf
Yes im getting the same error now every time I run quake 3 on the limited account. "Restriction: blocked o/s privileges: 4fd" is getting annoying as I already checked out every other protocol regarding the "Inadequate o/s privileges" error and Im still getting this. And I dont want to have to run q3 under admin everytime I wanna play. mad.gif
Wolf
eheheh... so now we find out who's been running the game with a lesser account. Same here... We can only wait for a reply, and additional info as to what needs to be adjusted permission-wise to settle this. Playing under a full non-restricted administrator account is not an option for me. There are just too many dishonest server operators out there.

Nothing has changed with the Admin aspect of PunkBuster, it still requires the 5 items listed below:

# Debug Programs
# Load and unload device drivers
# Manage auditing and security log
# Modify Firmware environment values
# Profile Single Process

If you have followed the FAQ on EB site, and you still have issues; then there is probably some other software that is blocking it.

Raise a web ticket with Even Balance and quote the 3 digit code you received when kicked.

I'm trying to play CoD, but the problem seems to be the same. I have none of the mentioned programs, and also nothing that comes close to doing what these things seem to do. I haven't changed the setup over the past six months, only today I got the new PB version auto-installed. Boom. It breaks.

I tried that, telling them that I have none of these programs and all the correct user privileges set, but I got just the canned responses telling me to check for these programs and the privileges. It was quite obvious that they didn't even read what I wrote.
Johnnie
dntknw.gif Not alot we can do to help im afraid, its their software and they keep the workings of it a secret for good reasons. I can only suggest to keep submitting updates to your ticket.

try sending another support ticket but this time send them a "hijackthis" log too. load up the game as normal and the normal apps you would use and then run hijackthis. it will list your processes.

example as of now, this my log.

this is a spyware checker, but DON'T delete everyone thing is shows up. go to a tech forum for advice on what to delete.

but send your log to eb along with any other data you have, they may be able to help you more knowing that stuff your running on your computer.

link: http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html

look for "hijackthis" mid-way through.


5 mins later: hehe just deleted a virus biggrin.gif , hooray for active scanning and anti-virus software.
Sturm
I uninstalled ZoneAlarm and Mcafee AntiVirus, no difference was observed. These do not appear to be related to the problem.

"Blocked O/S Privileges" does mean blocked. I tried running as admin with one of the five privileges disabled. The kick message was something like "Inadequate Permissions" with no trailing number. Completely different error message.
The problem is not a missing privilege, but instead the inability of Punkbuster to verify the existing privileges status when logged on as a non-admin.

I believe that Microsoft has tightened up on the Microsoft Windows LSASS (Local Security Authority Subsystem Service) access, because of security concerns.
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcen...tent/10108.html

At this point I see no method of running Punkbuster enabled games in a non-admin account. It will have to be up to Evenbalance to determine if the admin level account is actually needed for cheat prevention.

Omnix
Are there any common factors here like Service Pack 2 on Win XP?
Wolf
Good question Omnix... I'm on SP1. Once SP2 is stabilized if Microsoft is capable of such a thing, I might apply it...

Played under the Admin. account without any problems, but as soon as I go back to my gaming user account with adjusted priviledges, I get the boot.
Omnix
Ah, there goes my idea wink.gif
Wolf
Here's the first human(?) reply I received:

CODE
Note #3: Hello,

Please temporarily disable other security type programs you have running such as anti-virus, process guard, SDProtector, etc. to find out which of them is blocking PB's access to resources on your computer. You either need to run PB without the blocking program(s) or play on non-PB servers.


The problem is... I'm not running any other software, that might be blocking PB from doing it's job, that was not running before this problem started. No anti-virus or any similar memory resident programs. The support ticket has been updated with this info, and all I can do is wait. This is a deja vue! blink.gif
Veire
i never got this problem ever on any computer i play on. maybe a 56k thing dntknw.gif

sp1 works fine for me, so did sp2.

wow this must be really annoying the guys who are having problems biggrin.gif .

anyways getting to the point. attach your hijack this log with your support ticket. just copy/paste at the end. maybe if enough people send their processes, EB will find a common denominator.
Johnnie
Yep I wish I could do more to help, I've never had any issues with this.

QUOTE
A modem (a portmanteau word constructed from modulator and demodulator) is a device that modulates an analog carrier signal (sound), to encode digital information, and that also demodulates such a carrier signal to decode the transmitted information. The goal is to produce a signal that can be transmitted easily and decoded to reproduce the original digital data. Primarily used to communicate via telephone lines, modems can be used over any means of transmitting analog signals, from driven diodes to radio.

Well there's always some comfort in finding out I'm not the only one. Does this represent an important percentage of traffic on your server Pingni? Or put another way, would this be considered a normal number of kicks for your server? Are all 23 kicks related to the "inadequate O/S priviledges"?. One of the entries in your sample above has more specific information in the form of "Missing IP address" versus a code (4fd) in my case.

I'm also curious about this:

Would any member currently playing under an admin. account on WinXP Pro SP1, try playing the game under a "user account" with modified priviledges? And give me some feedback on the results?

Note: I can play the game (as admin.) so it's not critical for me anyways, but it won't motivate me to play any other servers than the current one I play now. I guess it does come down to "know the server you're playing on and your admins.".

Thanks in advance for any help some of you may offer!
Wolf

patopoco
For what it's worth, I'm a BFV player having similar issues using win2k pro.

I get the old (4fd) too. (Whatever in the world that means?)

I set up a group with all the privileges (user rights) that the Administrator has and made myself a member. Additionally, I made sure I belonged to all the groups the Administrator belongs to except "Administrators." (i.e Debuggers)

No go.

Only when I make myself a member of the" Administrators" group does it work. And, of course that defeats any "lesser" account operation.

I haven't gone through all the "user rights" yet. Maybe something that doesn't explicitly have the Aministrator as a member needs to be on. Dunno.

Happy gaming. sad.gif
pingni
All the 23 kicks related to "inadequate O/S priviledges" from 01.09.2005 until today.
Total kicks on server same period for ignoring cvars and Md5 tool, is 343
And my point adding this log lines was " Missing IP Address" most of them have it in the log.
Johnnie

That looks like a bug in the system to be honest, its already kicked the player and still trying to carry out actions against them. I will let EB know.
Wolf
Could this have anything to do with something as simple as being pingable? For example, I run in "stealth" mode, if I did not initiate a connection you won't get a reply if you ping my IP addy. On the other hand I did start the game and initiated a connection, which PB uses, so that should not be an issue. Looks like a longshot but I'll give it a try anyways.

@ Pingni
Thanks for the extra info.

@ Johnnie
You might just be able to help after all! smile.gif Good stuff.

@ patopoco
Johnnie has confirmed that the current priviledges adjustments as presented by EB, has not changed. You're a brave fellow to experiment in that direction. Keep us updated on your findings man.
Johnnie
I've fired an email off to EB with the possible bug, and patopoco's findings.

I doubt the bug has anything to do with the current issue, its obviously a security related issue. I will see if I can replicate it on my PC then I can perhaps troubleshoot it.
patopoco
Okay, I turned on every privilege available under user rights. Those granted to Administrator and then some.

No good.

It makes me think the program is checking the UID to see if it "is" the Administrator or not.

Just a guest from a use to be "C" programer.

That would explain why nothing short of being "Admin" would make things okay. It would also explain "that the current priviledges adjustments as presented by EB, has not changed."

Appreciate everyone's looking. dntknw.gif

I certainly hope this is not the case.

Any players out there using a lesser account with adjusted priviledges and are NOT having the issues described in this thread?

Please take a moment to respond if this is your case.
Johnnie
patopoco if your well up on O/S I was going to try turn of security auditing and log all failures.

I'll try to replicate soon.
patopoco
Okay here's the results from the event veiwer after trying as normal user. (Same kick with 4fd.)

If you go into your "Local Security Policy" from the Administrative tools, and then in the left viewer pane, expand "Local Policies" and select "User Rights Assignment" - in the right viewer pane, there's an option called "Increase Scheduling Priority", add your test user to this policy then logoff and login again and see if it goes away.

@Patocopo
Microsoft states that this error is generated when 3 conditions are met, and that SP2 solves this "know problem". The other option if you don't want to install SP2, is to turn off audit policy changes. More info here:

Still the same.

I'm using win2k pro and am all updated and such.

Good info though, Wolf. (Only briefly read it at this point.) I'll continue to investigate and report any other findings of note.

In the mean time, somebody come up with a wonder cure. blink.gif

I only get the 560 failure:


SeIncreaseBasePriorityPrivilege can be granted to users in Local Security Settings as "Increase Scheduling Priority" , but this does not solve the basic problem.

PB is accessing the Services Controller Service with more rights asserted than are owned. This results in Event 560. Then something tries 5 times to increase Priority Privilege, resulting in Event 577.

Not sure if it is possible to give users more Service Controller Service rights.

edit: darn, Wolf was too fast...

This means that PB is not able to access IoCreateFile and IoCreateService functions in your computer to install PB's Device Driver

So if(!IoCreateFile == NULL)
{
//Blocked OS Priv
}
