Hello, I have followed the instructions found on: server.counter-strike.net to setup my Linux server but I can't get to it from either my LAN or the Internet. My counterstrike software tells me that there is no LAN servers and my server doesn't show up in the list of Internet servers.
This post is a little long because I've tried to include all needed information. (Sorry) I have a Linksys Router switch and have forwarded the following ports to my Linux server: 7200 TCP 5273 TCP 27010 - 27015 UDP I used a web based tool on server.counter-strike.net that made a server.cfg file: /// Set the Host Name/ *hostname* /"Portal of Death"/ /// Set the rcon password/ *rcon_password* /"MyRconPassword"/ sv_password /// password to join server/ sv_lan 1 // * * * NOTE * * * I DO remove this when I'm trying to get the server listed on the Internet. /// Exec files on startup/ *exec* banned.cfg *exec* listip.cfg /// Server Logging/ *log* on mp_logdetail 3 */mp_logmessages/* 1 /// Server Variables/ */mp_timelimit/* 30 */mp_autokick/* 1 */mp_autoteambalance/* 1 */mp_c4timer/* 30 */mp_flashlight/* 0 */mp_footsteps/* 1 */mp_forcechasecam/* 1 */mp_freezetime/* 4 */mp_friendlyfire/* 1 */mp_hostagepenalty/* 2 */mp_limitteams/* 2 */mp_roundtime/* 7 */mp_tkpunish/* 1 */sv_restartround/* 0 */sv_maxspeed/* 320 sv_proxies 1 allow_spectators 0 mp_startmoney 2400 mp_chattime 0 sv_allowupload 1 sv_voiceenable 1 sv_alltalk 0 *pausable* 0 decalfrequency 60 mp_falldamage 1 /// cheat and fun modes/ */sv_aim/* 0 */sv_cheats/* 0 /// Set Rates/ */sv_maxrate/* 8000 sv_minrate 4000 /// Enable/Disable LAN mode/ sv_lan 1 /// Contact & Geo/ sv_contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] sv_region 1 I have tried to start the server with several command lines including: /hlds/hlds_run -console -game cstrike -port 27015 +maxplayers 8 +map de_dust -autoupdate /hlds/hlds_run -console -game cstrike +ip 67.168.4.197 -port 27015 +maxplayers 8 +map de_dust -autoupdate Nothing seems to work. If I specify my router IP address I get: Auto detecting CPU Using Pentium II Optimised binary. Auto-restarting the server on crash Could not locate steam binary:./steam, ignoring.

I have searched the Internet and found a lot of posts from people having this problem but no answers. Please help. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
