All, -secure is not a valid commandline sv_secure is not a command to activate or deactivate VAC. It simply shows if the server is secure or not. (0/1)
VAC will start automatically where -insecure is NOT in the commandline If your server fails to connect to steam servers, try setting a "-sport" to a value which is NOT taken up by a server on your box. For example, if you have 5 servers running on ports 27015 27016 27017 27018 27019, then your "-sport" must NOT be the same as one of these. Your "-sport" numbers must also be all different, having the same "-sport" will NOT work Take this setup of 5 servers for example: Server 1 -port 27015 -sport 27010 Server 2 -port 27016 -sport 27011 Server 3 -port 27017 -sport 27012 Server 4 -port 27018 -sport 27013 Server 5 -port 27019 -sport 27013 Servers 1 to 3 will have no problems at all. Only one of 4 and 5, depending on which order they are launched, will work at one time, the other will not be able to connect to the steam servers through the same "-sport" as the other server. So for a nice healthy (in theory) server setup, you need: Server 1 -port 27015 -sport 27010 Server 2 -port 27016 -sport 27011 Server 3 -port 27017 -sport 27012 Server 4 -port 27018 -sport 27013 Server 5 -port 27019 -sport 27014 hope this helps -James -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Alex Dignam Sent: 30 November 2005 20:38 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds] VAC??? Thanks I tried this but still there was no VAC module present... my launch options line is as follows -tickrate 66 -secure and my server config has the line sv_secure 1, and still nothing... This may have something to do with it. I have to execute my server config after my server has booted up, so I have to execute the server config using the main console, I fear this may have to do something with it... if anyone can offer a sloution please let me know and if anyone knows how to get my config to execute upon startup then I would really appreaciate that too.
