Hello We are getting some port allocation problems since the MAY.05-07 updates on CSS. The porblem is that som servers can't start on their assigned port because other server occupies their ports,this mostly happens if a customer suts down his server and another server close to the first customers port range restarts his server.
At first we thought that this is because the know Eventscript problem, but we realized that servers whit no EV installed are doin this too. Our server port are starting from 27030 and every new server on the same ip is started on every 5 port (for example 27030 , 27035 , 27040) Source TV ports are set up so they are using the server port +1 (for example, if the game server runs on 27030 then the Source Tv port is 27031) So everything worked fine untill the last 2 updates, but after that, we don't know why the servers are starting on random ports (for example the server wich was normaly on 27040 port, started on the 27046 port) Do others experiencing the same problem? Or do someon know how could we fix this, cause it's really anoying to search every time -with the netstat-unpl command- wich PID is occupieing the needed port. And finally an example from a server. This server is assigned to run on the 27035 port. If ask for the PID occupied ports i got this: ---- server ~ # netstat -unpl | grep 5984 udp 0 0 IP:27008 0.0.0.0:* 5984/srcds_linux udp 0 0 IP:26905 0.0.0.0:* 5984/srcds_linux udp 0 0 IP:27035 0.0.0.0:* 5984/srcds_linux ( ez a –port flagje ) udp 0 0 IP:27036 0.0.0.0:* 5984/srcds_linux ( ez a sourcetv portja ) udp 0 0 IP:27044 0.0.0.0:* 5984/srcds_linux ---- Greats Laszlo _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
