-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Repost (sorry for the spam, but I could really use some help with this):
I am attempting to run a dedicated server on linux, cstrike hl1 and/or tfc hl1 Whenever someone tries to connect to my server, the server crashes with the following error: FATAL ERROR (shutting down): SteamGetEncryptionKeyToSendToNewClient:Returned NULL! When I run it with -debug, this is all that shows up in the log: ---------------------------------------------- CRASH: Sat Mar 25 16:01:09 CST 2006 Start Line: ./hlds_run-debug -game cstrike +sv_lan 1 +maxplayers 16 -pidfile hlds.728.pid End of crash report ---------------------------------------------- This happens to me on two different linux boxes - 1 is running gentoo-hardened (kernel gentoo-hardened-2.6.11) with PaX and grSecurity (it is properly configured) - the other is running debian on vanilla-kernel 2.6.12-10 both are standard intel pentium4 peices of equipment with nothing fancy to them. They are part of a ~20 computer LAN. Tracing this with gdb does not yield any useable information on either box.
