How to set up a whitelist on my RUST server?

To protect the server from unauthorized players, we recommend using a whitelist. Only the players on the whitelist can join your server. The rest of the players cannot connect. This whitelist can be set up via this Oxide plugin: https://umod.org/plugins/whitelist

• Install Oxide in the basic settings
• Restart the server once. After the restart, an “Oxide” folder appears in the main directory
• Establish the connection via FTP. (Explanation see above)
• Load the plug-in into the Oxide/Plugins folder.
• Now restart the server and connect.
• Now open the console as admin with F1
• Execute the following command: oxide.grant user STEAM64ID whitelist.allow

The desired player is now whitelisted and has access to your server.
