I assume you know how to disable PB for the clients in the multiplayer menu? (You may have to do that in the "vanilla" Q3 menu.) Anyway, if I remember right, do the exact same thing for your server. Start the game as if you are going to play (and not host) and disable PB exactly like you do for a client. I think that's all there is to it. Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong. Have fun and take a couple of screenshots for us! 8)

If you start interactively, then do like Red said. If you start a dedicated server from the command line with a seperate server.cfg file, then you may have these lines:
Code: Select all
seta sv_punkbuster "1"
seta cl_punkbuster "1"
seta punkbuster "1"
pb_sv_enable

To not use punkbuster change them to
Code: Select all
seta sv_punkbuster "0"
seta cl_punkbuster "0"
seta punkbuster "0"
pb_sv_disable

This is at least what I could recall what I did when changing from pb to non-pb.

It is probably too much since the cl cvars refer to client settings and not server settings but it can't hurt.
