One of the 3 servers has an abnormally large incoming bandwdith. We have
taken it offline until we can determine and remove the source of the
packets. This should fix the servers missing from the list problem.

Any thoughts on this one alfred?

Here are 3 traces from the server the game in question is

That packet trace is fine, it is just showing you that our firewall
drops ICMP packets (for security reasons). You get multiple entries with
the same IP as the traceroute program just keeps sending more ICMP
packets with longer ttl's that terminate at the same point.

Hiya, thanks for clearing that one, makes my traces make a bit more sense.
Some of the traces go through tiscali as well, so might be a common point (
213.x.x.x network) looking at previous mails.

2005-12-05 Thread Gary

I adjusted my localpref to 110 to another carrier, and tiscali seems
to filter traffic..

I'm going to see if I can have my upstream localpref AS22822 to
somewhere else for the time being.

As a work around, Alfred, what do you recommend? Could we manually
override the master server? (i dont remember the command off the top
of my head)

69.25.142.6 isn't a valid master server address, the only valid
addresses at this moment are 207.173.177.11, 69.28.151.178 and
69.28.151.162 (DON'T hard code these values anywhere, they are subject
to change but you can use them for the next couple of days to debug
problems).

Albert, I am not able to ping 137.224.223.124:27015, is the server
currently running?

The current suspect for this problem is routing issues as certain IP
blocks seem affected. If you don't see your servers in the list try
using traceroute to the 3 master server addresses and see if a
particular hop is dropping your packets.

Hmm just tried some traceroutes from servers and from home, really hard to
pull anything out but results are really odd. First part varies depending
where I trace from, but latter part in eli.net seems odd.

IP 16  * * gw-cust-VALVESOFTWARE-COM.bllv.eli.net (207.173.69.238)  138.571ms

Seems to loop and then respond? Doesn't matter where I trace from, also
eli.net seems to return several IPs the same, but seems to vary too much to
have anything conclusive. But may be a pointer to a general area for any
routing problems.

I'll try and do some more conclusive proper traces later with packetloss,
route changes etc.

I don't have any routing problems, after doing some bgp

Seems sporadic, though. Some will list and some just 'fall off'.

Wasn't even aware of the other master servers! (Although not paid much
attention before). Ones I've looked at so far use

207.173.177.11:27011
69.28.151.178:27011

and have a problem.

Servers are spread over 3 dual xeons running 2*win2k3 and linux so doesn't
seem to be o.s related either. Have tried a few things like forcing the IP
by downloading 2nd IP addresses on the box, but no difference. Servers say
they are connected to master server fine and show sv_secure 1 as well if it
helps (just to indicate connection looks fine, although not sure if it uses
same ports). Also have region set, it does look like there are some "chunks"
of IP ranges missing, but that could just be me not remembering correctly
(no filters either).

I seem to be able to find a ton of them too now. Ive checked with the dc and
they have not installed a firewall and port scans dont reveal any blocking
on my or their end. Im stumped if its something on my boxes. Can we start
pooling out knowledge?

Lets start to compile a list of the master servers that the nonshowing
servers are using and a list of the server that do show. Perhaps there is
some connection or none at all. But the absense of any hard data to be
discounted or included will not help us/valve.

Here are the masters for a showing server please include the port too you
never know:

207.173.177.11:27011
69.28.151.178:27011

Here is one that doesnt show did for a long time now not at all:

69.28.151.162:27011
69.25.142.6:27010

I added the ones the showing server is using but so far its not showing up.
Matter of fact i seem to be missing a HUGE swath of ip's. I go from 209.xxx
down to 68.xxx the servers I am looking for are 205.xxx. I have deleted the

Remember that they are Pacific time in the States.  So it's not even the wee
hours of early Monday morning yet there ...

Exactly the same problem here.
We tried everything, but at this moment we are 100% sure the problem
is NOT on our side. During the 1st of december the backend of Steam
introduced a big fault concerning their masterlist.
No faults are showing in consoles and we changed nothing on our servers.

This Steam-error  is starting to cost us money.
What is happening Valve ?
It has been 4 days now since this happened: it's time to react
gentlemen.
