Hi,

I ran an strace on the existing srcds_i486 process for about 10 minutes 
(with 4 players connected) and it did not show any mention of these ports.

I have had a second L4D server running on the same box for two full days 
now, and that server is only using 4 UDP ports.  The second server was 
launched using -noauth and -nomaster and is password protected, and I 
only use it for testing.  I suspect this issue has something to do with 
communication to the master servers.

     Thanks,
     Dave
