If its not able to bind, make sure the port is available. It could be that srcds is not shutting down properly, and when you "restart" it, its just opening a new session.
When you restart the entire root, the port will not be in use, because you are starting srcds for the first time. If you are Linux, you can do a netstat -an | grep 27040 netstat -an | grep 27005 if either of them list something, then srcds is still running when you restart it.

If a server can not bind to an address, than the chances of anything network related (inluding VAC, let alone clients being able to join your server) working, are slim to none. Check your startup line and ensure it contains a +ip line to bind it to an address, or, that your local hosts file correctly lists your dns against the correct IP. In my experience, when an IP is not specified, srcds will bind to the ip corresponding to the local DNS resolve.
