The problem here is that we currently have 2 choices.
1. Run non-beta update server, and lose VAC the whole time (NOT an option
looking at the amount of cheaters who invade the server then).
2. Run the beta update on the servers, and have the bug that people cant
connect alot of times....
I mean how the heck should we choose between this???

If the bug has too large an impact then you should stop using the beta for
now. I am going to be out of the office until late February and the beta
won't be able to be updated until after that.
The Beta has been extremely useful to me in debugging some long standing
problems we have had under certain linux installations, I really want to
thank everyone that helped us track those down. I expect to continue using
this Beta format for dedicated server engine style updates in the future. I
am had hoped that the iteration time on the Beta would have been quicker but
other projects took prominence.

Not to sound rude, but could you hurry a bit on the steam validation
bug?
Cause servers are now staying totally empty cause of that bug, and we
need
to give them hard resets in order for people to be able to play again.
Normally we have around 10.000 connections a day to our servers, with
this
bug it has dropped to 6000.

Yup, we have all the information we need about this beta bug. Other
work
items have pulled me away from the beta, I don't know when I will be
able to
next update it. On a happy note, once this bug if fixes all the major
issued
for the beta have been resolved and it would be time to make it
public for everyone.

We have released an update for the beta. This release fixes the
secure/insecure problems people have been having on AMD CPU's and
attempts to fix the CPU usage spikes some people have seen (feedback
on this please). Run the hldsupdatetool with the "-beta swapbeta"
parameter to get it.

The update fixes the pipes assert, a crash on startup for
dual-proc machines and some in game stalls. Thanks to everyone
that gave us feedback, it really helps track down these problems.

We have a beta release available for both the Source and HL1
engine. This beta fixes the steam id swapping problem amongst
other small fixes. You can apply the beta by running the
hldsupdatetool and adding "-beta swapbeta" to the command line.
A couple of users in an initial test reported a server hang and
associated assert (pipes.cpp line 298), if you see this please
send me your OS configuration and hardware.
