In the engine. Since the network stream between client and server is encrypted (with an embedded sequence number), you can't just redirect network packets from one server to another server. The engine itself handles the network connecting/disconnecting of players. The engine only has space allocated for 32 players. If you want to bypass the Half-Life network protocol and create your own network protocol (and get rid of prediction, encryption, and services like voice communication in the process), you could do this. Each player would be created as a normal entity (much like monsters are in the single player game), however, you lose too much of the networking features built into the engine when you do this (IMHO). If you want to use the Half-Life engine for client/server network messages, you are stuck with 32 player servers. End of story.
