[hlds_linux] New Security Modules -November 4
*** This only affects Counter-Strike and Day of Defeat servers. *** We've updated the public security modules again. These security modules introduce the wallhack prevention methods we've been working on. We're interested in hearing about any situations where players are invisible when they shouldn't be. For example, if there's a location on a map where someone can stand without being seen. You can send the details directly to me (mailto:erics@;valvesoftware.com). Your Counter-Strike and Day of Defeat servers should update themselves automatically. Let me know if you have any problems with these security modules and we'll look into them right away. Thanks.

RE: [hlds_linux] Help need For Linux Server
You have to run it as a background process. On the command line that you are entering ./hlds_run , add a "&" at the end of the line. So: ./hlds_run -game tfc +maxplayers 20 Should become: ./hlds_run -game tfc +maxplayers 20 & The other alternative, is to launch using something like halfd, which will restart the server when it crashes as well. -Original Message- From: Arenawars TFC Admin - Chris [mailto:kris@;arenawars.com] Sent: November 4, 2002 11:06 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlds_linux] Help need For Linux Server Hi, i recently tried to setup a HL Mod server - TFC on my linux box everythings right and all the files are they're but when i start it (through putty window) thereafter shutt he putty window on the next map change the server comes to the server shuts down, Someone said i need Webmin and some scripts? i came for some proper advice from the pro's can anyone help with some answers? or at least show me to the right direction.

Evert, I am using iptables: iptables -A INPUT -p udp -d --dport 27015 -j ACCEPT iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp -s --sport 27015 -j ACCEPT This accounts for MOST hlds traffic. All the other ports used are very minimal traffic and aren't worth accounting for.

Those of you from this list who know me, i'm a stat whore. I just love stats. Just love the know the numbers :). Well this weekend has probably been the most active for me, with the release of Natual Selection. I've been working with Flayra (Charlie) to test release patches to fix the problems associated with his game. Flayra's big interest is getting a) NS's CPU useage and b) NS's network use down to CS/DOD/TFC levels... so I came up with something to help make it easy to see. As many of you know MRTG is pretty cool, but I think this blows its socks off :) http://traffic.lanvancouver.com And yes, a single HLDS server IS running on two separate CPU's. This is because of the linux kernel. I'm wondering if w2k/xp kernel will also allow for this?
