Just to remind everyone, if you see "Steam Validation Rejected" errors from your users running a Source server get this BETA update to fix it. You get it by adding "-beta swapbeta" to the command line. This beta includes a new steamclient.dll. If you have this error on HL1 based servers you can also copy this updated binary to those servers to test the fix.
