Yes, running a listen server with "sv_lan 0" will make it secure (as long as you didn't also put "-insecure" on the command line when launching the game). Typing "status" into the console will also tell you if you are running secure. SU means Service Unavailable, which is a temporary glitch due to backend updates, the server will just reconnect when Steam is available again.

It says: Connection to Steam servers successful. VAC secure mode is activated Is VAC actually running, and can it detect people who connect to the server with cheats? My guess is yes its running because VAC2 does not need a module like VAC1 did, all the technology for VAC is in the client and the server only tells the client if the server requires VAC on or off. Other people dont agree. Also, I noticed this a couple of times: Connection to Steam servers successful (SU). VAC secure mode is activated Are you able to explain what this (SU) means?
