Since you are forking three servers on three different ports do you then need to
specify which of those three servers you want to connect to using
ms_force_dedicated_server? That is, "ms_force_dedicated_server 1.2.3.4:27095"
(or ...96 or ...97). My wish is to make it easy for my users, but still keep my
servers semi-private. As long as my search key doesn't get out into the wild,
random users will not be able to connect, correct?

Thanks,
Bill
