Configure Server Description - Dedicated Server - How???

[DerekSpeare]

I want to add the text under the title "Server Description" on a dedicated server.  I have found no place to know how to do this?  I have not located any publication from the developers on this either.   Can someone tell me how to do it for a dedicated DCS server?

 

Thank you!

This is done in Mission editor, not in server.

In Saved Games / Server Directory / Config there is serverSettings.lua and line [description]: 

cfg = 
{
    ["current"] = 4,
    ["description"] = " ADD HERE YOUR SERVER DESCRIPTION "

Ahh server description, my bad.
Yeah, the cfg file, just replace the "ADD HERE" with the text you want and save the file. Simple as that.

You guys are great!  Many kudos to @Falcon_S

 

NB:  I found the serverSettings.lua in the config folder, however.

If I start the server via the desktop icon, it wants the password every time. Is that usual?

How do you make paragraphs\carriage returns\line spaces?

eg

SRS available - 3 channels Mhz AM\
243 = Main  244 = A2A  245 = A2G\
