Re: [hlds] L4D Crash exploit?
1.2.3. Did a fresh download about a week ago. Running msleeper's l4d stats 1.1.1 (which is awesome, btw - I have the motd set to the stats page, people seem to like seeing not only stats, but their own name on the stats page :) ) and KrX's Survivor Upgrades 1.1.6. All of which has been rock solid for the last week. I'm gonna do a clean install and see what happens. The disk it runs on is a WD 160GB that has been in service for less then a year, but the boot disk for the OS is an old Maxtor 10GB that I'm going to replace as soon as I have a chance.

Re: [hlds] L4D Crash exploit?
First: What type of server? leased/Owned? remote colo? what level of access do you have to it? Second: have you checked available resources on the server? When is the last time that the server was restarted/rebooted? Have you checked the security on the server itself? Check the log and see if the same user tries to connect before the crash, if so, drop them in the banned user list. Also, that's not a crash, but a clean exit. if I hard kill the server process, the logs do NOT end that clean. OTOH, if I `quit' at the server console... Shawn/OB Ook wrote: > I did. No change.

I did. No change.

You should try resetting your rcon password? On Tue, Oct 6, 2009 at 6:34 PM, Ook wrote: > Is there a L4D crash exploit going around?

[hlds] L4D Crash exploit?
Is there a L4D crash exploit going around? I'm watching my server, which normally runs for days without crashing, crash/restart every couple of minutes. The last few lines in the log file is: L 10/06/2009 - 15:09:49: Preventing spawning L 10/06/2009 - 15:09:49: server_message: "quit" L 10/06/2009 - 15:09:49: Log file closed This happens every couple of minutes. I don't see anything in the console, it just quits. It started doing this about 4.5 hours ago, and it's done it about 40 times since then. It leaves a log file of exactly 1272 bytes. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
