Hello, When you say "cannot join or host on Half-Life", what do you mean specifically? Are you talking about Half-Life 1 (the original version of Half-Life) or Half-Life 2? Half-Life 1 has a multiplayer deathmatch mode, but this does not use Source. Half-Life 2 also has a deathmatch mode, but is entirely separate from Half-Life 2 the game. If you are unable to connect to any Half-Life 1 deathmatch server or Half-Life 2 deathmatch server, it's difficult to make suggestions because there are so many factors to consider (especially since HL1 and HL2 use rather different engines and therefore different networking sub-systems). In the console of the game, you can find out a bit more information when you connect to a server. Find an IP address of a server to connect to, then in the console in the game, type: developer 2 connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyyy A loading screen may appear, and stuff whiz past in the console, but at the point it fails, your console will contain more information about why it failed. If its purely to do with not being able to connect (e.g. you get a timeout, or the client fails to connect after four attempts), something on your machine or network is blocking the connection. Also, make sure your local game files are intact. In STEAM, right-click the game, Properties, Local Files and click "Verify integrity of game cache". Aside from knowing exactly what you are trying to do (and what game you are trying to connect to), I can't give any more assistance.
