Thanks so much James, that was exactly what I was looking for. Have a great weekend.

Like a variable tf_server_identity_token = "lallaalalalL" WRONG tf_server_identity_token "lallaalalalL" CORRECT Hope that helps.

I have 7 registered TF2 servers. Some have an = sign inside the quoted identity section of the convar and some do not. My problem is I don't know where the "=" Fletch is talking about actually belongs within the convar line. Below is the convar from one of the servers I run. Note there is no "=" sign anywhere in the line yet the drops are working fine using on this server. tf_server_identity_token "BeH&>_VJ$T6&sgn" Do I need to add an = sign somewhere to this line for some reason? If so, can you reply with an example of what the line should look like with the "=" in the line? Thanks in advance and sorry for my confusion. _____ From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Fletcher Dunn Sent: Friday, October 28, 2011 1:38 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list; Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: [hlds] TF2 registered servers: check for rogue '=' in the convarsettings If your server is not getting Halloween drops, check if your config file has an '=' in the lines to set the registration convars. Also, make sure you put the identity token in quotes. If you have these two problems, you probably (quite reasonably) cut and paste the two config file lines from the client console when you registered your server. That output erroneously had the ='s in them, and did not quote the identity token. We fixed the output soon after we shipped the registered server feature, which explains why a lot of people not getting the drops are also saying that they have been registered for a long time. In case that does not fix the problem, the next update will provide more verbose logging so such errors will not go undetected for so long.
