The master server protocol isn't very forgiving and srcds isn't trying hard either. Every 5 minutes server will send one packet to each of two master servers currently selected, if it replies with a challenge another packet is sent to register with it. There are no retransmissions, if one of the 3 packets required to complete registration is lost ... thats it, next try in 5 min ... and there seems to be a great deal of packet loss. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
