Further to this, when I did a netstat -a -b, I can see no tcp sessions for hlds - but I do see udp sessions. This leads me to think that rcon for hlds uses udp - and not tcp, as does srcds.
Can someone confirm this for me?

I have some rcon code which connects perfectly to srcds - however, when I test against an hlds server, I get a 10061 - connection actively refused or socket not available. I specify the local IP address and port for hlds on the command line when I start it - and the text in the hlds console window confirms that it is starting up on the specified end point. I am assuming that hlds listens for rcon connections on the port that is specified at startup, as srcds does. Is this a correct assumption or is it using some other port?
