Hi,
which AppID is configured for your dedicated L4D2 servers (steam.inf)?
I am living in Germany and want to host L4D2 servers. But because of GeoIP

players.

Thank you for your fast answer! Yes and no! :)
Yes, the servers have no restrictions.
No, as far as my experiences go with the demo, a censored client (running
with appid 550/590) cannot connect to a server hosting with the appid 510
for uncensored players.
This shall separate gamers playing with

You need to install Windows Debugging tools and open the file in WinDBG.

My three L4D servers are all Windows and I haven't seen that happen in a

I would have said this too until yesterday when one of my 6 L4D servers had

My girlfriend and me have set cl_timeout to 120 seconds. This really helps.

Once you start running 50+ servers and have complaining customers, it
becomes pretty obvious it is a bug. In my experience Neph's plugin
didn't solve the problem.

few days where it didn't occure; until yesterday.
Have the same problem with my servers on a windows server :( .

If I look in my installed L4D-Server directory by HLDS, I say it will be a
new/seperate server installation.
By the way, I am disappointed that a completely new game will be released
instead of a mappack for L4D, lets say with another 4 Levels like the
included ones for, let say, 20 to 25 bucks.
Possible? Yes.
Spending money for refactoring a gameserver to make it more reuseable? No!
A cruel world with people who decide how much money is spent for what.

I am using Windows
Powershellhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/technologies/management/powershell/default.mspxtogether
with the Windows Task Scheduler to automate it. The task is started
every morning at 7 o'clock and does the following:
*Stop all L4D server instances*
No idea if this helps but I run my 8 L4D servers with one
installation/folder with a config file for each server.
My start params:
-console
-game left4dead

+ip **.**.**.**
-port *
-nohltv

+sv_lan 0
+exec server[*].cfg
+map 'mapname'

What? ^^
sv_tags sv_search_key lets players read the search key using the server
browser so they can set it for their lobby.
BUT this means also that the server gets only filled through a lobby with
the search key or directly through the server browser.

Yes, the server will be visible to searches with empty sv_search_key
(the default, public) and with somekey. sv_search_key works by just
adding a hidden tag as sv_search_key_SEARCHKEYHERE1010 and server
