Hello, I've set up a dedicated server, following basic instructions I've found on the web. Unfortunately, I have yet to see any lobbies connect when I haven't been the lobby leader using sv_search_key or mm_dedicated_force_servers. I am wondering what might be causing this issue. It seems unlikely that most dedicated servers would be ignored. Someone said that perhaps it is my firewall, but I have added rules to iptables that would allow the ports needed. I'm stumped!!
My information is as follows: OS: Debian Lenny i386 CPU: Pentium D 3GHz RAM: 4GB DDR2-667 GAME: L4D2 Start up command: ./srcds_run -game left4dead2 -autoupdate -ip 207.246.157.196 -port 27015 -maxplayers 8 +exec server.cfg MODS: MetaMod/SourceMod // Server Name hostname "xxxx" sv_search_key "xxxx" // Admin and Server Passsword rcon_password "xxxx" //sv_password "" // Server Admin Email sv_contact "xxxx" // Server Operation Cvars sm_cvar mp_gamemode versus sv_gametypes "versus" sv_lan 0 sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0 sv_steamgroup_exclusive 0 sv_steamgroup xxxxxx sv_region 1 sv_pausable 0 sv_cheats 0 sv_consistency 1 sv_maxcmdrate 80 sv_mincmdrate 33 sv_maxrate 30000 sv_minrate 10000 sv_visiblemaxplayers 8 mp_disable_autokick 1 // Server Sounds sv_alltalk 0 sv_voiceenable 1 // Server Logging sv_log_onefile 0 //Log server information to only one file. sv_logbans 1 //Log server bans in the server logs. sv_logecho 1 //Echo log information to the console. sv_logfile 1 //Log server information in the log file. sv_logflush 0 //Flush the log file to disk on each write (slow). sv_logsdir logs //Folder in the game directory where server logs will be stored. // Executable Config Files exec banned_user.cfg exec banned_ip.cfg -- 4 8 15 16 23 42 _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
