Yep, the VAC servers are unreachable for quite a few times on daily basis. We have 20 VAC-based server running (CS and CS:S) and we've performed 21 VAC-insecure reboots yesterday on those server. But i have to say there was one major reboot of all 20 server at 0:00 hour.Most likely the VAC servers themself were being restarted. Usually we have about 4 or 5 "VAC insecure" reboots per day.
What can you do against it? Well, nothing. It's not in our hands. It can be caused by VAC or by the connection from your server to VAC. In both ways, you can't prevent it. The only thing you can do about it is making the reboots automated, so the server are protected most of the time. On our servers i've created a script which reads the "secure" status by qstat. If that status is not "1" (e.g. "0" or not available), it will send a message to the server that it's going to reboot, and 10 secs later it sends an rcon quit. The runs every hour checking all VAC protected servers. Quite simple, but effective. -W0kk3L- ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, April 30, 2006 7:43 AM Subject: [hlds_linux] Vac turning off / Server going insecure regularly
