I have a rather unique network setup (multi-homed nic+an outgoing PPPoE DSL connection), and I get this occasionally ... what seems to work is bringing up the console and typing "ip my.outgoing.dsl.ipaddress" (e.g. primary gateway), and then I'll be able to connect fine.
I wouldn't rule out that being a fluke, but it's possible VAC2 has some clientside problems with complex/broken network setups such as mine. If you have something similar going on (nic+other wan connection), it might be worth checking. devin812 wrote:
Hello, So after the last update or 2 (not sure exactly when) it seems there is a problem with people connecting to my VAC2 secured server.. I can replicate the problem thusly.. Once steam is started i click servers, double click my server and it launches CS1.6, i then see it downloading the security module, but it seems to hang while loading and then i get the error "Server verification failed!" I click quit and i go back ot the CS1.6 game screen (with the CS background, and you can choose options and such) if i open the server browser again and double click again on my server from within the game screen , the VAC module downloads and processes just fine and I can get into the game. If I completely quit CS1.6 and start the process over again it is reproducable about 50% of the time. If I click play games and start CS1.6 first, and then try and connect this problem does not happen. It seems to be related to rebooting my system, as it happens once a day but once i am able to get into the server the problem seems to go away...until the next day which it happens again. IF the server is not VAC enabled this does not happen... this has happened to other regular players on the server also... Has anyone seen this before or know of a possible fix? I hadn't had any problems in the past, just recently.. i'd say within the last steam updates. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
