Just to throw this out there, if your server is behind the same router as
the system you're gaming from, you may run into some trouble. I've not been
successful yet at getting sv_search_key to work. My server is behind the
same router as my gaming rig and it just sits there and never finds it. If
I have someone else set their search_key to my server's sv_search_key...key,
they find it with no troubles.
