Re: [hlds] [Non HLDS related] Port Fowarding
Note that if your host is putting you through a port address translation life will be miserable. You'll have to get them to not change outbound ports, which may be tricky. I do this myself for my servers and it's not a big deal. But sometimes with hosts it could be. Again assuming you're behind a firewall that translates your ports on the external interface. If they change the external port # and the master servers try to query your server on that port that was translated you won't show up on the server lists.

Re: [hlds] [Non HLDS related] Port Fowarding
Likely you need to select UDP to get UDP forwarded. UDP is used for the game communications with TCP for IIRC console commands. try forwarding both, see what happens.
