Well I just guinea pigged people on a 32 person server and nothing happened to them, but I am not sure it even affects network servers, or if it only takes effect after mapchange or something like that. In-game it says this to me.
"sv_lan" = "0" - Server is a lan server ( no heartbeat, no authentication, no non-class C addresses ) However I had sv_lan 0 set on my test LAN server and it still wouldn't talk to the authentication servers. Richard Eid suggest -nomaster which I have found while searching, but nobody confirms it actually works and he says he hasn't tried in a long time.
