be sure to add this this to your "/dedicated.cfg" so the bans you do via the admin tool are permanent:

ban_timeout=0

The server's status command will display the userid's of the current players, as well as stamp them in server.log. Without status, userids dont commonly appear in the log.

However, if the user triggered an anticheat event or was successfully votekicked, his userid wil show up in an anticheat.log entry. Note that the anticheat.log displays userids in hexadecimal format which must be converted to decimal for use in banned.xml.... Note also that you cannot edit banned.xml while the server is running.
