Re: [hlds_linux] DOD:S Server Problems
Hi, I tried a fresh install to a new folder, this server instance just crashes. That's what is running on the HLDS version of the game. The original server instance I have, clients report as out of date. When that server instance is run it gives the below output. So to clarify, the server that was once working, clients report is out of date, but is running on 'OB Linux Dedicated Server' version 70 and 'Day of Defeat Source Base Content' version 55. The new server instance I downloaded to try to diagnose the non-working one also does nto work. That seems to be running on the old HLDS setup. I have no idea why this is happening.

Re: [hlds_linux] DOD:S Server Problems
It appears to be using the wrong server package. 'Linux Source HLDS' is no longer used. Instead, we're up to 'OB Linux Dedicated Server' version 70. You might want to remove InstallRecord.blob and run the steam updater again to see if that corrects the problem.

Re: [hlds_linux] Is it possible to identify from an other pc/server if the entered ip:port is a game or a tv server?
This should do it: http://uclug.utica.edu/files/dave/tvquery.zip Just create a file called "servers" in the same directory you run the script from, and put IP:PORT pairs in it (one pair per line). I tested it by putting our CS:S server into the servers file: cstrike.utica.edu:27015 cstrike.utica.edu:27020 It tells me that cstrike.utica.edu:27015 is not a SourceTV server, but cstrike.utica.edu:27020 is. I think this is what the OP was trying to accomplish. - Dave On 11/10/2010 11:58 AM, frostschutz wrote: On Wed, Nov 10, 2010 at 05:25:29PM +0100, Ulrich Block wrote: Anyone knows the current string to query a server?

If you know the method by which they are doing it, it _might_ be preventable using server plugins or settings. Or they could be using cheats and you might just be SOL until VAC _might_ catch them.

Re: [hlds_linux] Is it possible to identify from an other pc/server if the entered ip:port is a game or a tv server?
The second one is for the os. In my case l=linux . So the basic query works. I guess it is the same problem servertools like hlsw and so on have. And since all the other queries are outdated too it will be hard to get correct informations. Am 10.11.2010 17:31, schrieb Nicholas Hastings: It's just d or p (or l for listen server). The 'l' after it is the OS (linux). When not in legacy mode, that field is probably not set properly.

On my first mail I already wrote that quakestat can not devide between sourcetv and gameservers anymore and because of that I am looking for a method without quakestat. That is why I asked for a programm that allows me to send querys I wrote to the ip:port I like. And please do not send the developer page again. My question is and was not what a query should contain. Instead the question was which program allows me to send such an query string. To make it more clear. I do not want a ready programm.

Then there are several libraries for various programming languages (listed at the bottom of the wiki page) so if you have programming skills in any of them you can just use one of those instead of a command line application.

Then there are several libraries for various programming languages (listed at the bottom of the wiki page) so if you have programming skills in any of them you can just use one of those instead of a command line application.

I read the page a couple of times before i wrote the mail here. But the page does not answer the simpel question how to send the queries. They only explain what a query should contain and how to read the reply. I am working out of the linux shell. All I need is a name of a programm that allows me to send the query. ping does not work. So what else to use.

You can send A2S_INFO query to the server http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Server_queries#A2S_INFO Games that support it will include port numbers for game server and TV server in the reply. To determine whether you're talking to the game or tv server, compare those port numbers with the one you have. So not only you can determine whether it's a TV or not, you can silently / automatically switch to the game server port without asking the user to re enter the correct port number.

Python works, or C. You might want to look up socket programming. From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Ulrich Block [ulbl...@gmx.de] Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 2010 7:26 AM To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Is it possible to identify from an other pc/server if the entered ip:port is a game or a tv server? On my first mail I already wrote that quakestat can not devide between sourcetv and gameservers anymore and because of that I am looking for a method without quakestat. That is why I asked for a programm that allows me to send querys I wrote to the ip:port I like. And please do not send the developer page again. My question is and was not what a query should contain. Instead the question was which program allows me to send such an query string. To make it more clear. I do not want a ready programm. Instead i would like to know which programm allows me to query any kind of ports with custom written query strings.
