Re: [hlds_linux] srcds virtualized
ahh beat me to it. Linux DOES run paravirtualized under ESXi (both 3.5 and 4.0). I ran multiple CS, CSS, TF2 and L4D servers under ESXi 3.5 on a PowerEdge 2950 (dual quad core 2.0GHz Xeons 16GB of ram) with NO issues, other then a crap Hawaii internet connection :P I don't have any numbers to back it up either, but I played the hell out of all those games on there with clanmates and family members for over a year ... no complaints. On the other hand, I wasn't trying to run 1000hz kernels or anything super-high performance wise (the CSS server did run 18 bots on one side in a seperate VM, alongside 3 L4D servers and a TF2 server in another VM - I had to seperate the bot server, but then who normally runs 18 bots? :P) My $0.02 ... too. -mauirixxx -Original Message- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of A.

RE: [squid-users] SQUID Home Proxy AD
Aloha Jeremy, I have done just about everything you requested (I don't have it set to e-mail me any sites). I used a GPO to lock my kids copy of IE to the squid proxy (and removed their ability to change it), and I have a whitelist file on my 2k3 server that I edit which contains all of the allowed websites for them. Whenever I edit it, I don't use any .cmd file, I either just issue a net stop/start squid (or use the Service Manager mmc if it's open to issue a right click). If you'd like, I can directly e-mail you my squid.conf file (it's based on 2.6 if I recall, maybe 2.7). I got help from some people on the Ars Technica forum (look for username mauirixxx and a squid topic) and you can see most of the steps I've taken there to make it work.

Background: I am new to squid. I use and love Linux but need to build a small Virtual Machine (windows based hosted under VMWare) which I can provide to family and such where it provides protection for kids browsing places they should not be. Due to other requirements for iTunes printers, etc... I had to construct this gateway system based on windows. I choose to use SQUID as I have used it on Linux and liked it's usability. Issue: 1) Documentation related to getting Squid to work with Windows is related to hosted functions ON a Linux system which passes auth through to AD. I need to get working Windows 2003 server with native SQUID working which does AD auth but without any Linux in the mix. 2) When I modify squid.conf the run the Apply new configuration (C:\Squid\cmd\newconfig.cmd) it ignores my changes to C:\Squid\etc\ squid.conf and puts the file back to the default settings. (I see a shell window which echos 1 file copied but the shell cuts off the full detail of which file and from where.

Re: [hlds] Top Cheating Features Bypassing VAC? (wasVoogrucheaterplugin)
The ping from here isn't that bad actually, at least not to me. I hit california based (San Jose specifically) at around the 70-80 ping mark, anywhere else in cali is right at 100. Playing on Texas based BF2 servers, I would usually hit around 120, with spikes up to 150. TOTALLY playable in my opinion. But most of the hawaii gamers I've played with over the past 6 years claim that those numbers suck, and only play with that latency because there's no alternatives here in hawaii (that part is true, NOBODY hosts game servers in hawaii - I host mine off my work connection, which has a 2 megabit uplink, and goes damn near unused at night). Like I said, it's the mindset. I used to live in cali (fresno) so I've played on my fair share of low and high ping servers, and you're right - if you're good, you'll do fine with high ping, but if you suck...

Ping in game was pretty steady at around 120-130, with an ugly spike up to 200 for me. I'm playing from work, so the firewall here may have induced all the choke I was getting. Dying repeatedly was my own doing, I've never played Op4 :P -mauirixxx -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Ook Sent: Wednesday, May 20, 2009 12:47 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Top Cheating Features BypassingVAC?(wasVoogrucheaterplugin) Pop into my server and see how you ping: connect OoksServer.no-ip.info It's an 18 player OP4 server running on an AMD Sempron 2400+ (1.7GHz I think).

I hit california based (San Jose specifically) at around the 70-80 ping mark, anywhere else in cali is right at 100. Playing on Texas based BF2 servers, I would usually hit around 120, with spikes up to 150. TOTALLY playable in my opinion. But most of the hawaii gamers I've played with over the past 6 years claim that those numbers suck, and only play with that latency because there's no alternatives here in hawaii (that part is true, NOBODY hosts game servers in hawaii - I host mine off my work connection, which has a 2 megabit uplink, and goes damn near unused at night). Like I said, it's the mindset. I used to live in cali (fresno) so I've played on my fair share of low and high ping servers, and you're right - if you're good, you'll do fine with high ping, but if you suck...

(wasVoogrucheaterplugin) Half of my regulars are in Europe or South America or Asia. Some of them come in with fairly ugly pings, but a ping of ~225 from Europe is not at all unusual. Not the best, but still perfectly playable (at least for those of us that remember what it was like to play with dial up modems LOL). Back in my day (when Men were Men and I had to walk barefoot in the snow to school - uphill - both ways...) I could, with my 250ms ping, whip the cable modem guys butts easily. If you are good, you are good even with mediocre ping, and if you suck, then you whine and cheat I guess. No one - and I mean no one - whines about consistent lag because they are connecting from some other country. I'm watching some guy from Germany with a ping of 260 kicking butt. I have players in Seattle that connect to my server with a ping of about 35. And they really aren't any better then the 260ms pinging Germans. In all fairness, I don't remember ever seeing anyone connecting from Hawaii - how bad is their ping that they feel they have to cheat? - Original Message - From: Clyde cide thedrunkenbraw...@gmail.com To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Sent: Wednesday, May 20, 2009 2:01 PM Subject: Re: [hlds] Top Cheating Features Bypassing VAC?

Re: [hlds] TF2 - Concurrent Connections from one public IP blocked
Funny I've never had that problem. I run 3 computers at home and I've never tweaked anything to allow all 3 of them to play Counter-Strike Source or TF2 at the same time - we even play on the same server too. The only bug I've ran into is sometimes the home connection drops momentarily, and when it comes backup a few seconds later, the server thinks my pc is one of the other players in the house, and the same happens to them as well. But no router config, no +clientport command line, nothing - it just works. Maybe there's something else running at the same time that's interfereing? -mauirixxx -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Cc2iscooL Sent: Monday, May 04, 2009 3:31 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] TF2 - Concurrent Connections from one public IP blocked It will try to use 27005 if available, even if there's another computer connected to the same server.

Hopefully someone will be able to find it before the next update. Just FYI. I am monitoring the servers via Munin. I am using the standard memory graph to show when the servers are going into swap, and it is easy to see the slow increase over time of the committed memory. Once this hits your physical memory limit, you will be forced into swap and perf hits the floor. The only way to get around this, is to restart the srcds process. I do this about once a week using a rolling restart of the srcds around 4am. The leak isn't big, but if you have a lot of forked servers, the change is quite large. I have also had to reduce the number of forks to avoid restarting the servers every night.

Re: [hlds] HL1 Map Collections wanted
My guess is, when a game get's its hooks into you, some people just can't let go. Which is why I still play Counter-Strike to this day - even if it's not as much as I used to. I even resurrected my old stomping ground called Spacemonkeys, just because I could. That game will always have a place in my collection, (relatively) shit graphics and all.

[squid-users] SquidNT service starts thenm stops immediately - running squid.exe manually works fine though?
Aloha everyone, I copied over my working SquidNT 2.7 Stable 2 from my 32 bit Windows Server 2003 to my new Windows Server 2003 x64. I rebuilt the cache, but didn't touch the squid.conf file (I copied from C:/Squid to C:/Squid). Squid installs as a service just fine, but as soon as I start it under x64 it shuts down immediately. Yet if I do: squid -d 10 -X it loads up just fine, and even adheres to my configured whitelist of websites, if I deviate from the list Squid tells me via the web page. It just WONT start as a service under x64, and even the squid.exe.log file is at 0 bytes. Anyone have any experience? Rick Payton, I.T.

Re: [hlds] sv_steamgroup for other games
I like this idea - I think the only thing that may hold Valve back on implementing it (it meaning adding a server via the steam group admin panel) would be the eventual inundation of e-mails to support asking Why isn't my server being detected when I add it to the steam group page or similar e-mails.

Please run hldsupdatetool to receive it. The specific changes include: Gameplay changes: - Added a duck timer that prevents duck spamming while running around on-ground. - In-air, players are only allowed to duck once before they touch ground again. - Fixed several bounding box issues with jumping, falling, and rocket jump air-walking. Bounding box should be much more accurate there now. - Increased backstab check so that Spies can side-stab again. - When disguising, Spies now always start showing the primary weapon in their disguise, and can then switch it with the last-disguise key. TF2 Fixes: - Fixed flamethrower loophole that resulted in the flame effect being stuck on while the flamethrower wasn't really firing. - Fixed exploit that allowed players to circumvent the force-fire timeout on the pipebomb launcher. - Fixed a bug that caused Natasha's slow on hit effect to be inverted from 75% to 25%. - Restored sawmill_logs.mdl file, fixing some user maps that used it. - Fixed some localization issues with Scout achievement strings. - Removed the Final phrasing in the map loading screen. Engine fixes: - Fixed a server crash on startup under Linux. - Fixed a buffer overflow issue related to network string tables. - Gamestats uploading is now done asynchronously. This fixes the client timeout issues on map changes. CP_Junction: - Fixed an exploit where engineers could build a teleporter exit in an invalid area. - Fixed a few bad overlay assignments and other minor issues.

Uhhh ... You want to speak for yourself Patrick? While I personally could care less about how almost 10 percent of all tf2 players earn their achievements I can't help but laugh at all the people pissed off the msleeper would do this. Honestly, back when I actively played BF2, I *WISH* someone would've done this to ban every player joined a knife/pistol/explosives only server. It appears that everyone with a negative reaction towards msleeper's plugin is taking this as a forced plugin to run or something. It is entirely optional - did everyone forget that? He released it so like minded admins with multiple servers can get rid of a certain type of unwanted players - at least, that's what I gathered from it. Maybe I read it wrong. And for whoever said msleeper had a god complex .. Umm hello we are server admins - we all have a bit of a god complex, whether we want to admit it or not. Even if you don't act on it ... You got it.

Re: [Mediawiki-l] MediaWiki Apache Confusion
The way I understoof the apache config file was, the first entry of all your virtual hosts is what takes presedence when a user connects to the web server. So if your first entry that apache reads on startup is for the 10.9.10.212 virtualhost you have below, then ANY address you type in your browser that resolves to that IP will get that virtual host site - unless it's defined below the 10.9.10.212 virtual host entry. For example: VirtualHost *:80 ServerName www.example.com ... More virtualhost data ... /VirtualHost VirtualHost *:80 ServerName wiki.example.com ... More virtualhost data ... /VirtualHost VirtualHost *:80 ServerName 10.9.10.212 ... More virtualhost data ... /VirtualHost Now, if someone types any of the ServerName addresses in their web browser, and connect to the web server running that virtualhost config, they will connect to any of those 3 sites. Now, if they type (for example) crm.example.com, if you have a DNS entry for crm.example.com that resolves to the same web server as www.example.com, because there's no virtualhost info FOR crm.example.com, you'll actually receive the virtualhost entry for www.example.com - because it's the defualt site that apache serves in that config file. Now, where things can really get tricky and confusing, is if you use external config files for virtual hosts, and still append virtualhost data to httpd.conf. It appears from your statement below that you are using external config files that get called by httpd.conf. So what I suggest, is you copy one of your virtualhost files to a new name (like wiki.conf or something) inside your /etc/httpd/conf.d directory, and then edit it accordingly, and then restart/reload the httpd process.

Re: [hlds] VMware Advise
I can concur this also. When L4D demo was released, I was running 8 forked servers on a CentOS 5 VM under ESX. I could've ran more, but bandwidth usage was pissing off the people who pay that bill. I run my own personal srcds server under ESXi here in hawaii. Yes, HLSW DOES in fact report lag spikes - I haven't been able to track down why, but what really matters is performance IN GAME. No Lag spikes, AT ALL. No issues with timing or anything have popped up either. Granted, I've yet to try running any game servers under windows in a VM - I do all my personal game serving under linux - so I don't know if that makes a difference or not. I've ran a BF2 server in a VM, Quake 4 server, COD4, and an ET:QW server. No problems. I know that's not even close to being a comprehensive list of games, but they are known for requiring some hardware to push them FWIW anyways. /me goes back to complaing about hlds / hlds_l mailing list shutdowns ...

On a bare metal hypervisor, you're guaranteed high efficiency because the hypervisor has direct access to hardware. ESX and ESXI are examples of this. VMWare Server (formerly GSX), VMWare Workstation, etc - those use type 2 hypervisors. In this kind of scenario you *could* see problems with time-sensitive apps, but how bad these effects will be depends on the host OS you're using. Linux and Windows are both pretty decent here. In fact, the only time I've seen any kinds of problems with Type 2 hypervisors is when you do novel things like run VMWare Server on BSD with Linux Binary Compatibility. There's a lot of reasons to virtualize... Way too many to list here. But I can say with 100% confidence that SRCDS is completely well-behaved in ESX/ESXI under Linux, Server 2003 and Server 2008 guests (behaves on Server 2008 best, since MS is obviously aware that people are going to virtualize it whether MS supports it or not). -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Steven Hartland Sent: Monday, February 09, 2009 2:14 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] VMware Advise My must say I haven't tried SRC itself but have tried others and they lag badly due, which I assume is due to use of comparison in timestamps and / or inaccurate sleep periods.

In contrast I would personally be very surprised if there was any game server that wouldn't see at least some detrimental effect from having inaccurate timing. You would only have to be doing any sort of time difference calculations in a simulation for an clock frequency variations / sleep variations to show noticeable issues. Its very similar to how game servers present issues when run on hardware with any sort of power saving, that makes use of variable clock frequencies, enabled.

Because originally this list was all about HLDS support, YEARS before SRCDS was available - hence the Cause we old school comment from Tony Paloma. I've been off and on this list since 1999-2000.

Have a look at my script again. It DOES take care of files still being written. I am using fuser to accomplish this.

I know I can record demo's, I should've been clearer though. This is for when I'm not around, and people complain of mic spammers, or someone just being racists overall.

Re: [hlds_linux] voice comms audio recording?
Yeah I looked at that. It's not so much the spam I'm trying to curb, it's the racial slurs that I disallow on my servers. Text chat is easy - but what monitors voice comms? I know having multiple admins that actively enforce that policy will help, but much like having demo's of cheaters I'd like to have an audio record of what was spoken on my servers. I guess the only real solution at this point would be to disable voice comms .. And piss off a whole lot of players.
