Tried sv_steamgroup_exclusive and sv_allow_lobby_connect_only set to both 1 and 0 Neither work for me. I cannot see it as a group server. I've tried 3 different steam group numbers and it never shows up. Start script is this. #!/bin/sh echo "Starting L4D server" sleep 1 screen -A -m -d -S l4dserver1 ./srcds_run -console -game left4dead +map l4d_hospital01_apartment +sv_lan 0 +ip 192.168.0.199 -rcon_port 27040 -port 27040 +log on +debug All I really want is an easy way to connect to my private server. The sv_steamgroup thing would be nice, but I can't even see it. :/ Why does this have to be such a pain? I'm using a DLink DIR-655 router and I am hosting hl2dm and tf2 servers just fine. Any suggestions? _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
