There's more than one purpose for virtualization. One is density.
Case in point - VMWare did an experiment with ESX and Citrix density. On a
native 2003 server with Citrix Presentation Server, they were able to get
around 250 simultaneous users on the box with 80-90% CPU and Memory
run stats programs and host a few web
sites for your servers, etc.

You HAVE to restrict access via IP on the webserver itself. Sadly there's no
other way.
Turning off directory browsing is useless, as they'll find out the path anyway.
Valve opted to use Internet Explorer as their internal game browser, which
leverages WININET.DLL.

Over at www.TrashedGamers.com, we have a custom MOTD. That in and of itself
isn't interesting, but I was thinking - is there a way to read the current
steam ID of the person who's connected and reading the MOTD?
I could write up some dynamic html and/or
connect event to grab their SteamID, then use
their
SteamID as an argument to grab their stats.
It would probably require that you force a browser window open on them as
soon as they get in game to override the default motd.

But yeah. I agree with you. 100%. Valve *NEEDS* to develop some documentation.
Rule #1 - Documentation should accompany development, not be done after
I'm *not* supporting L4D until Valve gets their act together. I made the
decision a day or two after release and numerous frustrating attempts to get it
behaving the way I wanted.
To say If you can't figure it out, then you shouldn't be a server operator
doesn't carry *ANY* weight with me.

It's yet to be seen if Valve is willing or able to make L4D community-friendly.
It is not community-friendly as it stands right now and there is insufficient
documentation and/or sample configuration files to make it so to my liking.
I put my money where my mouth is. I took L4D down. And it
I've been at this for 10 years at least, starting with LMCTF on Quake 2.
Compare valve's documentation to any of the quake releases. All relevant CVARs
were documented *SOMEWHERE* when it was released, usually with the dedicated
server package. Some on idsoftware's website. They included
to it. Documentation is bad. Releases are never smooth. Plugins
break.
Do you know of another Dedicated Server community that has better official
documentation? Because it's not any better for CoD4 or UT2k4 or Quake3.

I think time will ultimately show people that this linear console hack isn't
worth supporting in the long run. Just my opinion.
I agree that the game should be played the way it was designed. TF2 is a
difficult game these days. It was designed to be a 24 player game with a
respawn timer, but has been convoluted into, well, a load of mud. I honestly
wish Valve would have taken a heavier-handed approach. I can't tell you

as a workaround for now, can you set sv_maxrate to 0 (unlimited)?

I uncapped the rate on all my TF2 servers and all is well (it seems to have a
ceiling of 3). The lag issues are gone, so it seems this works as a
workaround.
set sv_maxrate 0
That should do it until this is fixed.

so, leave the group? You'll never change people. Why try?

This isn't an issue under ESX or ESXI - at least if you enable NTP on the host,
enable vmware tools on the guest, and disable built in NTP on the guests as
well.
It's part of VMW's best practices. Clock Skew under ESX/ESXI is a newbie
mistake.
Also - instructions in vmware are not emulated.
running any code which will report time going backwards errors and
you will see it happening, doesn't even have to be under load.

I'm well aware of the doc. I had to know it backwards
I for one hope it's true :) Forums are a lot more visible to the internet at
large.

I dunno - I think the list being discontinued and moved to a forum is a good
thing.
People might say things like blah blah blah, they'll just delete anything they
don't like, but I think Valve is bigger than that.
I think having it on an open forum that anyone can browse will be a very
I agree with the sentiment that a mailing list is useless without valve reading
it and/or responding.
I also agree with moving it to a forum. While it's both good and bad for the
same reason (everyone can see it), it's also a lot more exposing. I think big,
glaring bugs should be seen for
to
change anything, then maybe they should change the level of input they have
in it.
