Re: [Csgo_servers] RE: Changes to A2S_INFO - take 2

[David Parker]

Thanks for the updates.  I assume this means that the "TSource Engine
Query\0" remains in place, and the challenge response (when provided) gets
appended after the trailing null byte?

Also, this may be a silly question, but is there a smaller padded packet
size that could be used, which doesn't trigger DDoS protections but is
still big enough that it makes a reflection attack less appealing to the
asshats who launch them?  Just curious.

Thanks,
Dave

Re: [External Mail] Re: [Csgo_servers] Steam Client beta released with changes to the A2S_INFO protocol

[David Parker]

Thanks for clarifying that, Fletch.  That answers my question.  In my test
queries I am padding the packets with zeros, but I was querying against
current production versions of TF2 and CS:GO, not the new testing
binaries.  So that explains why I still needed a challenge response to get
anything from A2S_PLAYER, regardless of the packet size.

So if this change is going to require that all A2S_INFO, A2S_RULES, and
A2S_PLAYER queries are >=1200 bytes, and any such request which is >=1200
bytes gets an immediate response with no challenge required, then does that
mean that the whole challenge request/response model is effectively moot?
Because if I'm understanding this correctly, the server won't answer a
challenge request which is <1200 bytes, and will respond to a proper one
with the requested information.

I'm mostly just trying to determine which steps can be disabled or removed
completely in my query app, once these engine changes are live.

Thanks!

Re: [External Mail] Re: [Csgo_servers] Steam Client beta released with changes to the A2S_INFO protocol

[David Parker]

Thanks, Fletcher.  But doesn't A2S_PLAYER require the challenge response to
be included in the query?

In my testing I have found that SRCDS will accept a challenge request which
is padded to 1200 bytes and return a challenge response.  And then I can
send an A2S_PLAYER query with that challenge response and pad it to 1200
bytes, and then get the player info back.  I just wanted to see if this is
the correct way moving forward, or if the need for a challenge was
removed.  And if so, what it has been replaced with.

Can I just send a header and 0x55 with nothing after it, if it's padded to
>=1200 bytes?

Thanks!

Re: [Csgo_servers] Steam Client beta released with changes to the A2S_INFO protocol

[David Parker]

Hi Fletcher,

I was just hoping you could clarify something for me.  For A2S_PLAYER, is
the challenge still required once the 1200 byte minimum is implemented?
And if so, does the challenge query need to be >1200 bytes, or just the
subsequent A2S_PLAYER query which includes the challenge response?

Thanks!
Dave

Re: [Csgo_servers] RFC: Changes to the A2S_INFO protocol

[David Parker]

Moving the server side of the query handling to the GMS would solve all of
the issues for GSPs and others hosting the games.  That makes perfect sense
to me.

However, regarding the increased packet size (option #1), I'm a little
confused.  If the idea here is that the servers expect really big packets
and reject anything too small, couldn't the asshats who launch these
attacks just update their existing code to pad the requests with zeros, and
we're back to the same problem?  There's probably a piece to this that I'm
missing, and I apologize for my ignorance.

Thanks!

Re: [Csgo_servers] RFC: Changes to the A2S_INFO protocol

[David Parker]

I will also jump in here and say that I like option #2 better.  It's
simpler and more consistent with the other protocols used by SRCDS, and
keeps the packets nice and small while also (hopefully) mitigating these
attacks.

And Fletcher, I appreciate you reaching out and soliciting feedback before
making this change.  Scrambling to implement a change in our A2S_INFO
clients after the fact would not have been much fun.

Thanks!

 So your argument is because there are reflection attacks with higher
 amplification, Valve should, do nothing?

 I don't think anyone is worried about carriers or datacenters going
 down over source engine reflection attacks, and I made no comment that
 would imply that.

 My goal is to keep customer's services online throughout the attacks,
 regardless of method or size. DNS/NTP/SNMP reflections are far less
 resource intensive to mitigate compared to attacks that require hashlimits
 or DPI, even if they are magnitudes larger on average.

 I'm not sure why anyone would condemn Valve for patching a well known
 reflection vector.


 What are you talking about 
 There's millions of other boxes. The genesis for all of this was SNMP
 +- NTP, which came after and was 50x worse per academia. NTP, SNMP,
 and CoD were the basic reflection staples of 2010.

 There's MTU hacks that break other queries which further destroy the
 ecosystem regarding statistics. Breaking outside of the hacked STB
 ecosystem (and oh my lord is there a lot) this is not really a hot
 market anymore. There's boxes that can actually saturate the entire
 link now that don't have to spoof. My single port server receiving on
 27015 killing an entire datacentre (which hit many other folks - to
 the point of pings on IRC) from getting a simple reflection attack is
 long gone.

 Basically, it's great that you've found the entire Valve + self-hosted
 ecosystem at its peak. But this is a decade old issue that no longer
 impacts real carriers,
 Kyle.

Re: [Csgo_servers] Operation of more than 2 Servers on the same IP

[David Parker]

Hello,

I would try starting just one instance and see which ports are in use.
That will give you an idea of the ports SRCDS is grabbing for various
purposes, in addition to the listen port you're specifying with -port.  It
may just be the case that you need to spread the listen ports out more.  I
believe that the Steam port, client port, and TV port will each use the
next available port number beyond the default, unless you override them.  I
could be misremembering, though.

Good luck.

Hi Fletcher,

Seems to work fine on 64-bit Debian 8 (Jessie).  Haven't had any players
join yet so I'm not sure if connections or gameplay will be affected, but
the server itself started up just fine.  I'm running 6 instances of SRCDS
on different IPs on the same box, and CS:GO still is bound to the correct
IP.

none of these videos looks current or relevant? 1.6/CZ server exploits have

 To make it perfectly clear, I'm not defending this person, I seriously
 doubt the seriousness of their statements and a lot of what they're saying
 makes no sense at all and looks like trying to maintain an image of

 If this person has a vulnerability to report, they should do so with the

Re: [Csgo_servers] CS:GO server crashing on Linux

[David Parker]

Thanks for the replies everyone.  The server was being started with the
same script I've always used, same user, etc.  It looks like a new
server.so file was delivered on May 12 and that's when the crashing
started.  The -nobreakpad workaround seems to fix the problem, although I'm
still curious as to why this is suddenly happening.

Thanks!

[Csgo_servers] CS:GO server crashing on Linux

[David Parker]

Hello,

I have been running a CS:GO server on Debian 8 (64-bit) for a long time
without any problems.  But within the last few days, it has started
crashing on startup.  No addons are loaded, so this is just a vanilla
server.  The console output is below.  Any help is greatly appreciated!

Does it only happen if a player on the server disconnects and re-joins, or
does it happen if any player joins (even one who was not there before)?

Re: [Csgo_servers] Skin/Knife/WS/Kosy/Skiny - Valve Politics

[David Parker]

The major difference between Valve enforcing rules on dedicated servers and
police enforcing rules on the highway is the fact that Valve has full
control over many aspects of this issue.  Police (usually) can't know that
you plan to break the law as soon as you start up your car, or start
driving down the street.  Valve, however, has a set of rules which they
want to enforce on game servers and it seems to me like they could build
these rules into the server code itself, and make the server simply refuse
to start if any of the violations are detected (and even tell you what the
problem is so you can correct it *before* you get banned).  Moreover, if
someone does manage to start a server which violates the rules, couldn't
the master servers detect this and at least refuse to list the server?  It
seems odd to me that servers which are in clear violation of Valve's stated
rules are still able to be listed, queried, and played on because the
process for detecting violators is apparently manual.  Seems like it should
be automated somehow, so the rules apply to everyone without human error
involved.

Just my two cents.

[Csgo_servers] Server went insecure and now it fails to start

[David Parker]

Hello,

Let me begin by saying that I have had my GSLT in place and configured
correctly for quite a while, and my server was showing the correct status
in the web API query and also showed the message that it successfully
logged in during startup.

Within the last few days, my CS:GO server started showing as "insecure".
So I restarted it this morning, and now I'm having a new problem.  It loads
the config just fine, but after all the "server_cvar" messages on the
console I get this:

Stopping 0 worker threads

Then the message "enum_names.cpp (136) : Assertion Failed: Missing String
for EResult (103)" just keeps repeating once every few seconds.

I verified the game data via SteamCMD with "app_update 740 validate" and it
did not find any errors.  This server was working fine just a few days
ago.  Does anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be?  The
server is running on Debian 8 64-bit.

Thanks!
Dave

Re: [Csgo_servers] Server went insecure and now it fails to start

[David Parker]

When the server was in insecure mode, the "status" command showed the
following:

version : 1.35.1.1/13511 6211 insecure (secure mode enabled,
disconnected from Steam3)

Looking through the logs, this seems to have just started yesterday after
the server finished a game and went into hibernation.  Then I restarted it
this morning, and now it crashes on startup every time.

Re: [Csgo_servers] Server went insecure and now it fails to start

[David Parker]

So it turns out that these were two issues of the same problem: I didn't
have a phone number associated with my Steam account (although I thought I
did).

I didn't discover this until I tried creating a new server token, but got
an error about my account not having any phone number on it.  I added a
phone number to my Steam account, and the server became secure and started
working within seconds (no restart necessary).

It would be nice if the server console told you what the problem was,
instead of spewing out an assertion error.

Re: [Csgo_servers] Regarding CS:GO Game Server Operation

[David Parker]

According to Michael, you won't need the tokens if you're using "sv_lan
1".  That makes sense, as I believe that's the same way TF2 works now.

As for assigning tokens, you could create a file in the master image with
all of your tokens in it, something like this:

1,TOKEN1
2,TOKEN2
3,TOKEN3

And a script which assigns the token based on user input, a number in the
hostname, or something else.  For example:

#!/bin/bash
TOKENFILE=/var/tmp/tokens# List of tokens
CFGFILE=/usr/local/csgo/cfg/autoexec.cfg# The autoexec.cfg file for
CS:GO
echo "Enter host number: " ; read n
token=$(grep "^$n," ${TOKENFILE} | cut -d',' -f2)
echo "sv_setsteamaccount ${token}" > ${CFGFILE}
echo "Assigned GSLT ${token}"
exit 0

This would require user input, but if you are somehow numbering the
hostnames, then you could even automate it by having this script get the
number from the hostname and run on boot.

Just some ideas.

Re: [Csgo_servers] Regarding CS:GO Game Server Operation

[David Parker]

A bit off-topic for this thread, but "login anonymous" still works in
steamcmd.  The GSLT is only required for the game server to register itself
with Steam once it has started up.

Re: [Csgo_servers] Regarding CS:GO Game Server Operation

[David Parker]

I would imaging that LAN servers will still work, but the devs will need to
confirm or refute that in order for us to know for sure.  Are you deploying
Windows or Linux servers?

Re: [Csgo_servers] Notice of changes to CS:GO Game Server Operation

[David Parker]

Ido, could you guys please update the CS:GO "status" command to show
whether or not the server is logged in, like TF2 does?  That's a lot easier
than simply watching for lines in the console at startup, especially if
you're running in a screen session on Linux and can't scroll back through
the lines which have left the screen.

Thanks.

Also, for what it's worth, my CS:GO server console has always been
inexplicably laggy compared to any other game.  It almost seems to be some
sort of buffering issue.  So that's likely not relevant to your other
issues, it's just the way the server is.

Re: [Csgo_servers] FreeBSD & CS:GO (crazy net_graph numbers)

[David Parker]

If you're seeing that kind of behavior with a single client connected, then
I think it's almost certainly due to your CPU not supporting the correct
instructions.  I'm curious, does it do this if it's only you connected, and
no bots?

Also, have you checked CPU utilization on the server while your testing
it?  I would watch the actual CPU load using top, htop, etc., and also run
the "stats" command on the SRCDS console at some regular interval while
you're connected.  You could do this with and without bots to compare.  It
certainly sounds like a CPU issue, though.

Re: [Csgo_servers] FreeBSD & CS:GO (crazy net_graph numbers)

[David Parker]

I'd be really curious what the CPU usage is when this is happening, as
measured in both the OS and SRCDS.  I'm going to bet that the usage is
actually low, but the CPU's lack of support for the needed instructions is
forcing the engine to do things in more convoluted (and perhaps less
optimized) ways.  It would be really great to hear from a dev on this
topic, though.

It's interesting because many years ago, CS 1.6 started requiring support
for a certain instruction set (MMX maybe?), and the dedicated server
checked for support on startup.  The server quit with an error if the CPU
wouldn't work.  If this truly is a case of your CPU not meeting the
requirements, it seems like they could just make it so the server tells you
that and won't start.

Also, in my experience, the server console (on Linux) is laggy regardless
of whether or not the server is hibernating.  It's just always that way.

Re: [Csgo_servers] My motd stopped working

This is a just guess, but do you perhaps have the custom MOTD in one place,
and the stock MOTD file in another?  For example, do you have MOTD files in
both your CS:GO install directory *and* the cfg subfolder?

Re: [Csgo_servers] Issue with logaddress_add where server is binded to one IP

[David Parker]

If SRCDS is bound to a specific IP, it doesn't seem like the application
itself could be sending data from a different IP.  Are you sure it's really
bound to just a.a.a.a, and not 0.0.0.0 instead?  Because it it was
listening on all IPs, then one would expect to see the behavior you're
describing.

Also, what OS is this on?

I bet one (or both) of those settings are causing this.  You could try
simply setting them to 0 in your config file and see what happens.

Re: [Csgo_servers] Srcds IP restriction

[David Parker]

So if I understand correctly, you have multiple instances running on the
same physical server and you only want to restrict access to one of them.
In that case, if you build your iptables rules to apply only to a specific
IP and port (or port range) on the server, then it should only affect the
instance on the specified IP and port.  Wouldn't that work?

 Why don't you want to use iptables?  That certainly seems like it would

Re: [Csgo_servers] failed to open libtier0.so

[David Parker]

In my srcds_run for CS:GO, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH gets set as follows:

# setup the libraries, local dir first!
export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${SRCDS_DIR}:${SRCDS_DIR}/bin:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

So, it seems like your LD_LIBRARY_PATH should be:


  
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/steam/steamcmd/games/csgoretake:/home/steam/steamcmd/games/csgoretake/bin

The fact that it only has /home/steam/steamcmd/games/csgoretake/bin and
then (null) makes me wonder if you're starting CS:GO from the wring
directory.  Are you starting it from
/home/steam/steamcmd/games/csgoretake/bin, or the SRCDS root
(/home/steam/steamcmd/games/csgoretake:/home/steam/steamcmd/games/csgoretake)?

Re: [Csgo_servers] failed to open libtier0.so

[David Parker]

The only thing I can think of is to try deleting the instance and doing a
clean install via SteamCMD.  Save these commands in a file:

@ShutdownOnFailedCommand 1
@NoPromptForPassword 1
login anonymous
force_install_dir /home/steam/steamcmd/games/csgoretake
app_update 740
quit

Let's name the file update_csgo.  Save it in your steamcmd directory and
then run it:

./steamcmd.sh +runscript update_csgo

Once that's done, you should have a fresh install with everything default.
See if srcds_run will work after that.  Sorry, but that's all I can think
of.

 I guess you could just hard-code it into your srcds_run script and it

 correctly on its own.  It's acting
 like /home/steam/steamcmd/games/csgoretake/bin is the current working
 directory when srcds_run is started, and if you're sure that it's not, then
 I'm stumped.

 Was this is a clean install (new download), or was it copied from one of
 the existing instances?  It shouldn't matter, but perhaps there's something
 weird about this particular installation.

 2014-12-16 15:36 GMT+01:00 David Parker dpar...@utica.edu:

 LD_LIBRARY_PATH will be different for each installation because it
 contains the full path to the SRCDS install directory and its /bin

 the command line:

 that at least get the server to start?

Re: [Csgo_servers] CSGO update

[David Neilsen]

Get used to it especially around content updates etc. If the game needs 
updating then it needs updating, they aren't updating it for no reason. If you 
can't manage your servers including updating when necessary then you should 
reevaluate whether you should be running servers. It's a good thing Valve 
support and enhance their games after release and don't follow the cod 
method... Otherwise we'd be on Counter-Strike Modern Warfare 6 by now.

Re: [Csgo_servers] Server Var question/request

[David Parker]

I'm not sure how the client collects that information.  The sv value
might be part of the data from the server in each update, but I bet the
var value is calculated on the client.  Either way, there doesn't seem to
be a specific server-side variable to read which reveals this information.
 I think you're stuck running commands and parsing the output.

 Does that kind of information require a player to be connected to the
 server? As in: it will only be available to currently active and connected
 users? I don't know if the server knows about each player's Var.

 Just to clarify, it sounds like you want to get operational information
 about the server (FPS, etc.) via a query.  Is that correct?  If so, I don't
 believe this can be done using an actual server query.  The best option is
 probably to write a script which runs the 'stat' command (and maybe a few
 others) via RCON, and then parse the output.

For obvious reasons? Idle servers that allow you to complete your

dilute the market. It's how it was always going to work.

Re: [Csgo_servers] Weapons Disappearing Randomly

That really sounds like a client-side bug, but who knows.  Are there any
messages spewing on the server console when this happens?  Also, have you
played on any other servers to see if this occurs?

I'm also running one on Debian 7 x64 - fof.utica.edu - you can try playing
on that for a while if you want and see if the same glitch occurs.

 Hello guys,

 I have two servers from NFO. One:

 And one:
 /Two core
 Two full, dedicated HT CPU cores (Nehalem or better)
 2048 MB of RAM
 200 GB of RAID-protected storage/

 Both server are running Debian 7 Wheezy x64. On both, occasionally, your
 hand holding the weapon will disappear. The floating weapon becomes
 unusable, and if you switch weapons that previous weapon will disappear.
 This happens relatively often so I dont think its a game bug. I am not
 running any plugins that mess with your weapons. What could be causing
 this?
 How can I fix this?

 Thanks a ton guys!

[Csgo_servers] CS:GO Client Crash issue that's appeared since last update

[David Hurren]

Hey,

 

I know this is a server mailing list, but this might need to be brought up
to valve quickly due to the nature of the issue and can be affecting people
in mm games and standard games.

 

It seems people who are on Windows 8 and 8.1 since the CS GO update last
night are seeing CS GO lock up and crash. When ending via task manager, it
also causes steam to completely exit. Could you guys at valve look into this
issue?

 

Kind Regards

there's a reddit thread for this issue.

Valve will be aware of it and will be working on a fix, it's apparently
affecting lots of Source based games. It's the weekend thought so don't
expect anything until next week!

out of intrest- those with the issue - have you tried running the Csgo.exe
in compatibility mode?

You can download the map and upload it via SFTP to your server and point

[Csgo_servers] Sending Reservation Request

Hello Gentlemen,

It will not connect to the server and eventually time out notifying me 
that it could not find an acceptable server with my current ping options.


I found some information after googling that there were two files in the 
CSGO directory to delete, subscribed_.  Deleting both of these allowed 
me to actually connect to the server.


The issue I have now is the same issue although I can connect to the 
server after I bring it online but after awhile of it being online, it 
begins behaving this same way and preventing a connection by just saying 
it's sending a reservation request.


I have no idea why these issues keep showing themselves -- I miss 
hldsupdatetool :'(

Re: [Csgo_servers] MOTD

[David]

You may be best off pointing the MOTD to a web page that exists on a web 
server some where rather than trying to get everything to work on the 
motd.txt file in the server files.


I am not sure on the limitations but I believe there were some servers 
spreading malware using an exploit on the motd page.  Valve may have 
disabled javascript as a security precaution when it comes to the MOTD.  
Most of the player stats and server stats are pulled via PHP, jQuery, 
etc etc.  I don't think Java is used a lot for these.

Re: [Csgo_servers] random spawns in csdm

As whinne said mine I works fine defining the config.

Also check all your configs as you may have that convar set to 0 by default
some place where it's hiding.

Also when you say change the map manually which command do you use?

 I can, however, change maps through HLSW. If I manually change the map
 to de_dust2_se, the server appears back online.

 I attempted to circumvent this by adding the workshop_start_map or
 just map de_dust2_se to server.cfg, but that didn't work.

 Not sure if this is relevant, but if I type status in console running
 either mapgroups or workshop, it doesn't output map like it normally
 would. It gives this output (with hostname and IP redacted)

[Csgo_servers] Teams Limited to half the max players

[David Fountain]

Ido,
   Since release (and beta times) the teams have been limited to half of
the maxplayers. I'm not exactly sure why this is the way it is as
mp_limitteams achieves the functionality of this except for servers that
overload one side such as zombies. mp_limitteams to zero only allows me on
a 32 slot server 16 players on one side. If you could explain to me why
this is that way. I understand competitive gameplay needs event teams but
in past versions of Cstrike they have competed and the
teams weren't restricted as they are here.

  You can specify it in webapi_authkey.txt without interaction from your

  Would it be possible to change this cvar to be started with + instead

 It would be nice if you could specify authkey, host_workshop_collection
 and workshop_start_map in your cfg and run servers without GSP having to
 set this on their side.

 It would directly affect server admins too, because of a likely influx

 various things during calm periods with little news.

Re: [Csgo_servers] Modify srcds_run

Yea. I use logins for each of my scripts they have yet to fail to actually
connect when I ran anonymous it connects like 50% of the time.

I could see maybe having the paths and scripts named inside of the srcds
script but the anonymous login had to many issues

 What he is talking about is hard coding -steamcmd_script in the

 SteamCMD, the -steamcmd_script was necessary to store passwords. He's
 saying the -autoupdate should make everyone autologin with SteamCMD
 anonymous and the rest of the script variables.

 I don't think it's a bad idea but sometimes the anonymous user has issues
 logging in and steam credentials work.

 The CS:GO launch parameter is is starting to get longer and longer and the
 solution to a lot of issues is set it in the start up line so it is
 growing quickly.

 I found a few caveats while working/editing with Map Workshop
 Collections. Once you click edit collection, you have to add some maps,
 and then you hit save. At this point you're presented with an option to
 edit the logo/video of the collection, you must hit save again (my first
 miss, I sometimes just leave the page after the first save).

 The second is, after the collection was updated, there is no push
 function from workshopserver, so it does help to run
 host_workshop_collection id again. Sometimes I've had it pick up the
 new map immediately, other times I've had to wait a bit before it would
 pick up the new maps.

Looks like it doesn't have Internet lol but how are you connecting to it

 Currently my server is not starting and is giving me the error of

 *Server UGC Manager: Failed to get file info. Internal IHTTP error or

 would this be a problem with my server or with the company hosting it?

Re: [Csgo_servers] Is gamemodes_server.txt obsolete , when the server is using workshop maps?

[David Fountain]

The gamemodes.txt. will get over written if there is a change to the file
like when they added deathmatch. So if you change things in it the will
return to default.

 since gamemodes.txt is required as is (without any changes) for the
 gametypes to work, I am wondering if gamemodes_server.txt is needed
 anymore, provided the server uses maps from workshop.
