Use Web Console when you need to ban or unban a Rust player without joining the game. Rust bans are handled by SteamID64, so make sure you have the correct player ID before running the command.
- Open your Rust server in the control panel.
- Click Web Console.
- Run
statusfirst if the player is online, then copy the correct SteamID64 from the player list. - Ban a player with:
banid STEAMID64 "reason"
- Unban a player with:
unban STEAMID64
- Save the ban list with:
server.writecfg
If you prefer a remote console client, use How to use RCON with your Rust server. More examples are listed in Commands for Rust.
