PB_SV_GUIDRelax [0-7]
Defaults to 0; Controls PunkBuster's kicking behavior related to GUIDS; A Value of 1 means PB will not kick for UNKN (Unknown) GUIDs; A Value of 2 means PB will not kick for WRONGIP GUIDs (these are GUIDS which are valid but not from the IP Address the player is connecting from); A Value of 4 means PB will not kick for DUPLICATE GUIDs; These values (1, 2 and 4) can be combined to achieve the desired behavior

Examples

- 3 = Will not kick for UNKNown GUIDS and wrong IP addresses
- 4 = Will not kick for DUPlicate GUIDS
- 5 = Will not kick for UNKNown GUIDS and DUPlicate GUIDS
- 6 = Will not kick for wrong IP addresses and DUPlicate GUIDS

Known Problems
Occasionally when the BF2 authorization server (controled by GameSpy) gets two or more connections from the same IP (with different GUIDs) it will send the same GUID to the server (and hence PunkBuster) which may result in an unfair kick. - EvenBalance Support Ticket: EB9149000348926
