Depending on your network equipment you could do a solution like this (This is Cisco based)
ip directed-broadcast Vlan X (containing server) ip address 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 Vlan Y (clients) ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 ip helper-address 192.168.0.255 Broadcasts in VLAN Y will be forwarded to the broadcast IP of vlan X containing the server.

The server is on 192.168.3.0/24 and my client is on 192.168.6.0/24 and connections are solid - and the server does indeed show up in the favorites tab, just not the LAN tab. My thought is that the clients are sending a broadcast, and not getting anything back in their own subnets, and adding the ip helper in that direction - much like the dhcp servers listening on each vlan. ~mianosm On Tue, Sep 11, 2012 at 11:29 AM, Saint K. <[email protected]> wrote: > Does the LAN server restrict to it's own subnet? > > Otherwise you could add "ip helpers" to the VLAN interfaces to forward > it's broadcasts to the broadcast IP's of other VLAN's. > > > ________________________________________ > From: [email protected] [ > [email protected]] On Behalf Of Cameron Munroe [ > [email protected]] > Sent: 11 September 2012 17:27 > To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list > Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] LAN server questions: > > Yes. > > Sent from my android device. > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: feugatos <[email protected]> > To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list < > [email protected]> > Sent: Tue, 11 Sep 2012 8:26 AM > Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] LAN server questions: > > So my "solution" would only work for a server in Online mode, right? > If he set up an online server and blocked it via firewall so that the > server wouldn't be visible in the master server list, would adding it > to the favorites tab work? > > -- > feugatos (Dimitrios Zarras) > CEID Warfare | TF2, CS:GO, ZPS | ceidwarfare.net > > On Τρίτη, 11 Σεπτέμβριος 2012 6:21:34 μμ, Cameron Munroe wrote: > > That wont work either.
