AdminMod uses and amazing simple and ingenious method for calcuating
access levels from numbers in the users.ini file.

If you haven't already noticed, the access levels are powers of 2.
the first level is 1, then, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and so on.  A little
program inside AdminMod will decompose the access level number in the
users.ini into a sum of powers of 2.  To give someone access to a
certain level X of commands, their access level in the users.ini must
have that number.  To give someone access to multiple levels, simply
add the value of the levels together and put that as the access
number.  Giving someone access to a certain level gives that person
access to only that level; not to any levels above or below.

Examples are much needed to explain this process.  To give PlayerX the
ability to use the kick and slay commands (level 128), his users.ini
permission line would be: PlayerX:hispass:128 If you also wanted to
grant him access to a reserved slot (level 32768), his access level
number would be 128 + 32768 = 32896 and his permission level would
therfore be: PlayerX:hispass:32768 The numbers you so often see like
65535 and 131071 are numbers granting full access to all commands.
The second has the added rcon access, and should only be used with
extreme caution.

LINUX USERS ONLY: Password encryption.  For security reasons,
administrators are highly suggested to encrypt their passwords.  This
is done by setting the cvat encrypt_password to 1 in the server
configuration files (listen/server.cfg) To encrypt a password, go to
the ../Admin/tools directory, and type make_pass password This will
output a cut'n'paste-able encrypted version of the password you
entered.  Now, copy'n'paste the ENCRYPTED version of your password
into the users.ini file in the password area (between the two colons
":").  The un-encrypted version is to be placed in the second password
area of the setinfo line. Remember that throughout this process, all
the passords, encrypted or not, are case sensitive.
