Im guessing you're referring to Half-Life, Source etc servers. I've successfully run them on FreeBSD in the past (and still do). Could you be more specific? Error message, type of server...

2006/11/15, Joe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: is there some way to test to make sure its working properly. the guys from steam say that its not enabled and thats why my steam server wont start. so if i could prove that SSE is enabled and working i could send it to them.
