Knife malfunctioning on my server

[Dizzy So 1337]

The combat knife is misbehaving on my server and I dunno why.  The stab damage seems OK but the throw damage is nil and I cant pick it up off the ground.

I first checked my knife on a directhosted game (ie from my local soldat folder)... knife works ok.  I then uploaded my default weapons.ini and soldat.ini files from that folder to my server, but the problem persists.

The server is an EnescE rental.  I thought I should probably post here before I submitted a help ticket to them though.

Have you tried restarting the server? It seems to work fine on a freshly installed server.

I have gotten great and fast response from your staff for all my account-related probs at EnescE and I appreciate it.  I was thinking this is probably not actually related to my EnescE account; I just mentioned it because of the (remote) chance it was.

I don't really want to reset my whole server and lose all my files and tweaks that I have made to fix this issue.  I will if I have to, but it would be cooler if I actually could learn what I did wrong and how to fix.  Here to learn.  (I did also submit a ticket though, thanks again for great support team).  I will be sure to dupe the solution here if EnescE cracks it before officical Soldat forums

Nick Cooper sed: "I have checked your Soldat Server configuration, and found the following lines which caused the Knife problem you were experiencing:

Disable_AntiCheat_Kick=1
Vote_Cheat_Warnings=0
Max_KnifeCheat_Warnings=0

I have changed these back to their original values, and restarted your server, and now the knife works perfectly. I was able to throw it, do damage by throwing it, and it appeared on the ground for pickup.

Thank you for support [eC] with your server rental,
Nick Cooper"

Go EnescE!  You guys seem to be working hard to make me a lifelong customer and I appreciate it.
