Re: [hlds_linux] TF2 ultra high cpu usage after the recent updates
I found out my problem was within a kernel (running rt31 pachets) which kernel are you using? reverting to a non rt kernel solved the problem.. strange thing is: after the last update basically the servers always consumes the same amount of cpu when empty or when full... Il 24/06/2011 21:00, Arie ha scritto: Experienced the same issue. Running 4 servers on a quad core box, server 1 is fine, takes 10% CPU idling, which is normal. The 3 others take between 30% and 50%. Doesn't matter if I shut them all down and just run them separately, the behaviour of the servers is the same. The first at 27015 will always be normal, the rest has high CPU usage. Those servers are pretty much equal. 3 of them run no plugins/addons, including the low CPU one. Identical configs apart from the port they run on.

Re: [hlds_linux] TF2 Ghosting Players
I suspect that once server has 1 slot free and couple of players connect at the same time, the other receives a message that the server is full and the other gets in. If someone disconnects at exactly the same timeframe as these 2 connected, there will be a ghost player born. I have 6 ghost players on 24 slot server right now but not at the 30 slotters i have, at all. They won't show up in server status reply but will effectively be on the server. So the server thinks there are players, which it has already dropped but those nonexistant players are stuck in a limbo. I assume you all who have this issue, have reserved slots in use or atleast hidden ones (or even 24 slot server or smaller?). It's quite common to happen on such servers. -ics 25.6.2011 22:13, J M kirjoitti: Yes, I sent an email to Robin, and I think they know of the problem, but they don't know how to replicate it.

Re: [hlds_linux] IP Tables rules against DDOS attacts
You can also rate-limit in iptables since a new module was introduced not too long ago. I use it for SSH and a few other ports as well. Here's an example for those that care. The below will rate limit ssh connections to no more than 4 every 60 seconds. Anything over that, iptables drops for a period of 10 or 15 minutes I believe. (Will have to check on the duration of the block). iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -m recent --set iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -m recent --update --seconds 60 --hitcount 4 -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT R's, max On Sat, Jun 25, 2011 at 8:22 AM, Andres Pozos javato...@yahoo.es wrote: Hi: For 0 size udp flood you only need http://www.sourceop.com/** modules.php?name=Downloadsd_**op=viewdownloadcid=9http://www.sourceop.com/modules.php?name=Downloadsd_op=viewdownloadcid=9(dont know if work with last update) And for rcon exploits, block the tcp query port, for example: IPTABLES -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 27015-j DROP Best regards __**_ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/**mailman/listinfo/hlds_linuxhttp://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Re: [hlds_linux] Free to Play - Infinite piles of cheaters and griefers?
You can still use DBlocker against cheaters, even if it won't detect all of them, it will detect some. http://dblocker.didrole.com/ 2011/6/24 msleeper mslee...@ismsleeperwrong.com I would pay top dollar* for a SM plugin that disables shit like voice chat and sprays for free accounts. Or a cvar that disallows free accounts from joining the server. I think there is already 1 plugin that kicks them. * I will not pay any money for plugins, ever.

What about the people who spray porn and goatse all over our servers while we attempt to keep the activity on our servers at least slightly above the retard line? I guess the good sourcemod devs are going to have to get together to find a way of identifying new ways to ban people based on what information it is possible to gather about a person's computer that is unique (or at least close enough to unique). --Matt On 06/24/2011 01:30 AM, Richard Eid wrote: In the FAQ, Valve mentioned that they're working on something to battle this. My guess is that they'll probably try to track the patterns of people who start to do this, so the system can quickly recognize those same patterns in the future and be a little more proactive instead of reactive. I think Steam Guard could help a little here, too. IP addresses can easily be changed, new free accounts can be made, etc... But Steam Guard is tied to your PC so it could(maybe) be used to verify clients on your server. People only have so many PCs they can use.
