Steam auth sometimes gets the blame when in fact the problem is just a plain-old-fashioned client timeout. We have changed the messaging recently to make this more clear, but if you are running old binaries.
I do seem to remember that we fixed a similar DoS attack recently. Can you confirm that you are running the latest binaries? When you boot your server, does it spit out your public IP next to the message when your server connects to Steam? Can you verify your files and make sure it doesn't pull anything down?

Anyhow, my server laggs, badly sometimes, and right after the spike a lot of players d/c with the "No Steam Logon" message. This is not related to a machine or any plugins I am running. This has happened a lot of times now, and I'm sick of it. What is wrong and why is it happening? Me and a friend were playing on two of our servers when we both lag out (red message in the top right corner) and then it stops and returns to normal, but half of the players are now gone.
