Yes. Enter the standard url http://www.quakejs.com/play?connect%2034.107.80.109:27960&set%20g_password%20password123

does this still work? i tried various combinations now and it always gives me invalid password somehow :-(
i can only connect without pass. i tried these settings in server.cfg:
seta g_password "pass"
seta g_password pass
set g_password "pass"
set g_password pass

maybe the url has to be different?
it does work with console commands but im just curious

edit: nvm its actually just password in my case, not g_password

Try adding g_needpass 1 Are you trying to make a server with a password or connect to a server with a password? Yes, setting a password to start a server is g_password, setting it to get into game I think is just `password` like in my original response.
