Also, you can use www.gametiger.com to triangulate on your server.  You'll
want to use their web form to list your server's current IP address, then
you can go in and search for your server by name.  If it is up and
communicating properly with the world, the GameTiger server will "see" it
and report its vital stats (OS type, current map, current # of players,
total # of players, etc.).  It's like a web-based version of GameSpy, but
the stats are collected on a server in Germany, not from you local machine.
I used it all the time to get an "outside" look at my servers.  You can also
get buddies in IRC to check things and tell you what they see.

        When you "echowall start", what it tells you at the end,
about which services have been enabled to which IP addresses, is
true. :)

        Right, exactly. Try using the +ip command that Alec suggested
when you start the server. Then, from a different ISP altogether,
point a CStrike client to your firewall's external interface. It
should connect. Since it's a PPPoE setup, this IP address could
change frequently, but we can talk about dynamic-DNS once you get
the initial connection going.
        Good luck!
