Port 1200 and port 27007 are only used for client "friends" service.
Most of these sorts of questions are answered on the Steam Support website. http://steampowered.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/steampowered.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=71 If there are things missing there let me know (offlist please). qUiCkSiLvEr ----- Original Message ----- From: Ooks Server To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2004 10:46 AM Subject: Re: [hlds] Firewall Questions, port forwarding, no entry in the master list. ----- Original Message ----- From: "m0gely" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2004 10:51 AM Subject: Re: [hlds] Firewall Questions, port forwarding, no entry in the master list. > Ooks Server wrote: > > > I thought that UDP 1200 was a port at the remote, not your local port. > > Well it's not needed to connect to the server thats for sure, because by > only forwarding 27015 people can join. > > > Opening this should make no difference as hlds doesn't use your port 1200. > > Yeah but why does Valve list it??

I need to do some more research about my own servers also.... Alfred, I know you are there :-) can you give us an official comment on the function of port 1200 UDP, what it does and if we need to forward it or not? I know a while ago we went round and round about ports, but I don't remember 1200 being required or even necessary. A while ago I fired up my firewall with no rules and watched what hlds was doing. Port 1200 never got hit. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
