Your ISP may be using a NAT or proxy server of some sort. I have had players with the same IP and ISP but did not know each other.
Check that your IP is what you think it is. Here is 1 method to determine what the rest of us would think your IP address is. http://whatismyipaddress.com/ If the wrong IP address shows up, you can't host a server unless your ISP helps you. Unlikly IMO. If the wrong IP address shows up, have your friends also try. If they have the same ISP, it may show the same IP address for them as it does for you. Hopefully I am wrong. :) Astro } -----Original Message----- } From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:hlds_linux- } [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Flaming Maniac } Sent: Sunday, June 08, 2008 11:26 PM } To: [email protected] } Subject: [hlds_linux] Cannot see server in browser } } I would appreciate any help or possible ideas on what is going wrong, at } this point I'm pretty desperate. } } I have installed an HLDS server for CS 1.6 on a computer running openSUSE } in } my house, behind our router.
