Bug Description
1/ Get an arma server querying script, such as pygamequery at revision 31 (available on lp)
2/ Start a dedicated server
3/ Ping the server (with pygamequery this would be "gamequery ping localhost:4534")
The packet will be interpreted as "bad" and the server will try to kill the user, as seen on the server console.
More apparently, there are client versions (some?) which will receive a packet, which, on older versions, will make the client think the server is cheating.
