Re: [hlds_linux] LAN server weirdness

First, only servers on ports 27015-27020 would appear on the lan game browser. Is this a bug or a feature, and is there a workaround? I would say it is very much a feature and the reasoning behind it is quite simple should you see this scenario: You're running a massive LAN event. Hundreds, maybe even thousands of PC's all wired up on LAN. Switches all setup so that the network doesn't get flooded with all the traffic. The only worry here is broadcast traffic.. In this event you don't need thousands of PC's boradcasting to 50 ports at a time to see which games are running. You'd quickly end up with a packetstorm. 5 ports is probably about right. Not sure I agree with the choice of ports. But that's life. Second, how do I make a server run on an aliased IP and have it appear in the LAN browser at the same time? If you mean aliased as in it's behind a firewall using port forwarding.. Then so long as it runs on one of those ports and is on the same subnet as the other games.. It should (in theory) still be included in the LAN games list even if not running in LAN mode. Although I've never really tried it. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Re: [hlds_linux] Already there is a HL2 online exploit....VALVE please fix!
McCormack, Chris wrote: Entering a cdkey in to steam for hl2 and then ripping out your net connection. I don't see how this method could be possibly fixed without some sort of rewrite of the authorisation handling code for steam (which I am assuming is no small task). I don't think it was wise to post this to the list as any fix that is in the pipeline could be a while away and it doesn't matter how many people you 'educate' to the unlocking method, it won't get it fixed any quicker. IF you were posting a game exploit or a hack etc then that's understandable but this type of post is just idiotic and I am sure any Valve employee that read your post felt that little bit sicker about their product getting ripped off by even more people. For someone who thinks 'He knows best' you think you'd bother to wrap your lines. The information was already public, and other than valve who cares if some people get HL2 for free, it doesnt effect my ability to play it. Maybe thatll be the key to getting valve off their fat lazy asses, remove the donuts from their mouths, and actually deliver us a product worth paying for. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Lazy they're NOT. They just focus more on eye candy than defensive programming, and in this case it's Valve's bottom line that will suffer.

Re: [hlds_linux] Already there is a HL2 online exploit....VALVE please fix!
Umm...yes it would affect online play if you read my original post.This allows people to play HL2 online (ie Source) without logging on via Steam...which means that apart from banning via IP - it would be nearly impossible to admin. This is the ONLY reason why I brought this up - not just for valve to fix but for other admins to be aware of what could happen on their server.
