Hi there,

I've noticed a strange problem which is that on my windows TF2
servers, it seems that clients can get stuck in a "connecting" state
and not time out from the server, occupying a slot but never joining.
On a server that has been up for 4 days or so, and very busy in general
maintaining 24/24, I now have 8 slots occupied by people who have
never joined. This is how the rcon status looks:

16:47:12 hostname: Dustworld.net | TF2 UK Server #1 | 2Fort
         version : 1.0.0.0/8 3236 secure

         map     : ctf_2fort at: 0 x, 0 y, 0 z
         players : 24 (24 max)

I've blocked out steamids and ips, but as you can see for example  #
827 "AutoFodder" STEAM_0:0:x 115:20:54 78 0 connecting 8x3:27005 thats
115 hours he's been in the "connecting" state. I can kick these people
off via console and free the slots up, but I just wondered if there
was any way to set a connecting timeout for instance, so people who
are "connecting" for more than 2 minutes are kicked? Or if anyone else
has experienced this/got a solution?

I'm not sure if this same problem occurs on linux as my linux publics
aren't really popular enough to see at the moment.

Cheers

Daz
