'Linuxguru', As someone else said, this is actually only a problem with the requests for pings from HLSW being blocked because MORE THAN ONE INSTANCE of HLSW is running at a time. I noticed this is for a CS 1.6 server. We used to get this all the time back in 1.6 ... but haven't seemed to notice it in Source.
It could be because the 'query' request format actually changed for it - or it could be AMX causing it. Never investigated it that much to find out ... but I just knew that if one of my other admins (etc.) was watching it in HLSW at the same time I was, I would get these 'time out' gaps in there ... but the server was actually fine.
