I should add that the API URL test shows that this is a bad version (same response with my original server), but yet this is a new install on a new host that I just leased. Are the source binaries out of date? Should I be getting them from somewhere else?

        "response": {
                "success": true,
                "servers": [
                        {

                                "gmsindex": 65534,
                                "reject": "bad_version",
                                "appid": 70,

                                "specport": 0
                        }
                ]
                
        }

Hello all,
I've been having a problem with my Linux hlds server (valve - Plagues Rat Race) on IP 46.29.252.97. I decided to lease a new Linux host and start from scratch. I am encountering the same problem with a brand new, unmodified valve server as well. I must be doing something wrong, I cant seem to communicate with the Master Servers and map restarts are forced. Also, the server name for both of these hosts does not show up in the game list, but you can connect to them if you put the IP in your favorites.

Can someone help?

Here is some feedback from the first launch of a brand new server:

The build command history:

    1  wget http://www.steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.bin
    2  chmod +x hldsupdatetool.bin
    3  ./hldsupdatetool.bin
    4  ./steam -command update -game valve -dir .
5 ./hlds_run -game valve -autoupdate +maxplayers 20 +map boot_camp (I've also tried with specifying IP and port)

Output from first run:

$ ./hlds_run -game valve -autoupdate +maxplayers 20 +map boot_camp
