Hey,

A lot of people had this issue a few weeks back. It seems if the
server loses contact with steam it can't determine if players are
allowed to use the weapons and denies everybody. I would make sure
your servers are indeed fully connecting to steam (make sure the
status command reports secure mode), check your firewall, etc.
If a fresh server doesn't work for you, I would guess firewall/routing
connectivity issues, though someone (Valve) will have to clarify
how/over what connection the server gets this information, I'm not
entirely sure :-/
