No, it isn't. Steam authentication tickets are signed by Valve's servers.
You cannot craft a ticket containing any SteamID you want.
You can, however, subject the server to

This email is mostly addressed to anyone within Valve that's still
maintaining the TF2 branch of the source engine, and I suppose anyone on
this mailing list that'd like to comment on this recommendation.
There's one frustrating issue with clients downloading custom content
(maps, models, etc) in
directly DDoSed but I regularly see network blips of 1-5 minutes on every
gaming network. Bad neighbours.

Any chance of looking into perf
Any chance of looking into perf issues when a full server gets in the
middle of a conga taunt? Haven't had a chance to run any vprof profiling,
but the netgraph shows large spikes in what seems to be sounds, and it's
followed by lots of client choke.
Valve has been going through the motions of merging their Dota item
server code into TF2, with sometimes spectacular results such as clients
and servers not being able to get their loadouts, and in-game trading not
functioning.
Other than that, however, I don't think any new issues have occurred
I do have to ask, though: why are TF2 updates released exactly during the
Tuesday Steam prop?
Surely they could be timed to occur long before or long after to avoid the
confusion present in this series of email posts.

I believe that particular changelog is referencing vphysics improvements.
Previously certain code in vphysics wasn't being compiled with any
optimizations in linux, and now they've been enabled. I can't speak for any
other changes that may have been done, however.

Based on Fletch's response a few days ago, it appears there is no
(automated) migration process for servers.
So at the most basic form you'd need to completely reinstall the server,
unless you're willing to risk the sideeffects of running VPKs in addition
to loose files.
This is the single biggest crasher on all my servers. I get around ~4
crashes a day due to stringtable overflows.
This negatively affects my stock MvM server. I feel in the future with the
addition of more items, the additional precaching will leave that server in
an entirely unreliable state of

As a slight correction, it's the TCP connection which doesn't respect the
bind IP.
The workaround is to block outgoing TCP connections on port 27017, this
forces the server to use a UDP connection to steam.

the case, but it's good enough for most games.
Also, I looked at the parameters
