How to Use RCON on Your Conan Exiles Server

Published 9 June 2026 · By Host Havoc Technical Support Team

RCON (Remote Console) lets you run admin commands on your Conan Exiles server without being in-game. You can broadcast messages, kick players, and more from the web console in the Host Havoc game panel.

For in-game admin access, see How to Access the Admin Menu instead.

Enable RCON

  1. Log into the Game Control Panel and navigate to your server.
  2. Stop the server.
  3. Click Configuration Files and open Game.ini in the Config Editor.
  4. Enable RCON and set an RCON password.
  5. Save the file.
  6. Start the server.

Connect via Web Console

  1. In the game panel, navigate to the Web Console section of your service.
  2. Enter your RCON password when prompted.
  3. Type help and press Enter for a list of available commands.
