[hlds] VAC Problem Could Not Establish Connection to Steam Servers
Since no one replied last time I'm reposting this question/Problem. After the last few updates I now have problems with some of my CSS servers where when I start it up it will say VAC Secured then a few seconds later it will go unsecured with a message saying Could Not Establish Connection to Steam Servers I have other CSS Servers on this same machine that are VAC Secured with no problem. This server is running on its own IP on Windows machine. I have run multiple CSS servers on the same machines for months with no problems until these last few updates. I understand there's some new -sport option but I don't know what this does or what the fix is to correct this problem with several CSS Servers running on the same machine. It would really be great if someone could share the fix solution for this problem.

[hlds] Blocking/Limiting use of bots?
Hi, I was wondering if there's any way to stop customers using bots on their CS:S servers from a GSP's standpoint. Currently we have a couple of users who're running a few bots each, and it's hurting performance a little- not critical as yet, but i'd like to be able to limit the number of bots per server.

Re: [hlds] VAC Problem Could Not Establish Connection to Steam Servers

[hlds] RE: Constant crash on SRCDS (real thread)
Well, so much for a response on my crash issue .. Since the 'reverse-spammer' had to degenerate the thread into nothing related to what I was asking about. For those curious - and hopefully this actually helps someone - those constant HARD crashes have stopped (with 'Missing Shutdown Function') once I removed 'Nemod' from the server) .. And updated Mani-mod to the latest version. I suspect Nemod was causing the problem. Hope this helps someone (as I know the reverse-spammers responses and flame-war sure didn't).

Re: [hlds] VAC Problem Could Not Establish Connection to Steam Servers
I found out from a server rental company that I use what was causing the initial VAC enabled that turned off after about 5-10 seconds when starting up my HL2DM server, and it took them a while to find the problem. They let me know that if there is more than one server running on a box, that not only is the -sport switch needed, but it is also required that all the servers be updated to the latest patch. There was one that had not been updated, and when they didit allowed my unrelated HL2DM server to maintain the VAC2 status.

[hlds] Counter-Strike:Source SRCDS Defaults?
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Anybody know what the default sv_ values are for Counter-Strike SRCDS. I know you are going to say, do a cvarlist, but thats not going to work. Quite a few of them, the default is not the default listed when you query a sever variable on a per variable basis, if you do so it will say things like: [code]sv_accelerate = 5 ( def. 10 ) game notify replicated sv_stopspeed = 75 ( def. 100 ) game notify replicated - Minimum stopping speed when on ground.[/code] Quite clearly it says the defaults are 10 100 here respectively, but if you do a default install of SRCDS for Counter-Strike:Source you get different values of 5 75 respectively. Oh, and these 2 variables alone make a huge difference to the feel of the game. So anyhow, is there a way of checking what the defaults are for Counter-Strike:Source SRCDS installation, especially for sv_ Server Variables? -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
RE: [hlds] VAC Problem Could Not Establish Connection to Steam Servers
Here's a tip for those that don't look back on the archives... Default server port = 27015 Default hltv port = 27020 Default steam port = 27021 If you run multiple servers on the same IP do the following as an example... Server One = -ip xx.xx.xx.xx -port 27015 -sport 27021 Server Two = -ip xx.xx.xx.xx -port 27016 -sport 27022 Etc, etc. What is happening is that if you run a game server at a default port of another service (hltv or steam) then that port is taken when you go to start another instance. The solution is to simply determine what uses what in the command line for each server instance. Ray S.
