The Windows webserver didn't note the connect attempts for the models, but did for all other files. Wiping the test client box of Steam, a quick run through the registry to verify, and a re-install has it downloading correctly. Adding the MIME types on a Windows webserver was definately at the heart of it, but not the sole problem. But thanks for all the help -- I'm convinced the learning curve is steeper when one's forgotten something than when doing it for the first time. Either that or I'm getting older and slower. - Dan * Dan Sorenson DoD #1066 A.H.M.C. #35 [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Vikings? There ain't no vikings here.

[ Converted text/html to text/plain ] Have you looked at the IIS logs to see if its trying to hand out the file even? And if it is trying, you can see the error.

At 08:07 AM 5/1/2007 -0400, Chad asked: >Did you change the mime types to octet stream on the web server? This is the problem, apparently. A linux box runnning Apache happily hands out anything requested. A Win2k3 box running IIS adopts a more cautious approach, refusing to hand out unknown file types and refusing to log such intemperate requests as well. A quick addition of .bsp, .wad, .mdl, .spr, .wav and .mp3 into the list of mime types as application/octet-stream failed to improve matters, but the real debugging can wait until tomorrow. Thanks for all the help, folks! - Dan * Dan Sorenson DoD #1066 A.H.M.C. #35 [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Vikings? There ain't no vikings here.
