You see this as server admin. But the customer, or even simply the player, would not understand why his server port is not as 95% of the other servers, between 27000 and 27100. Other thing, I'm afraid with some changes by valve, like this 27030 binded port. And I would not be surprised if one day they decide to force the port range to 270__ for example... My servers configurations are as "common" as possible, I feel better like this. (This is off-topic, but my actual fear is the future CPU needs for VAC2. Valve love to make surprises :) -- Thiesson Johann -- Content-Description: Digital signature [ signature.asc of type application/pgp-signature deleted ] -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
