RE: [hlds_linux] Dualie Athlons?[keeping it alive]
Your talking about 192.169.ect.ect 10.x.x.x ? A Cisco will route and advertise those blocks just like any other addresses unless you filter them out. There is no hard coded rule in a cisco that stops joe idiot from annoucing 192.169.x.x to the world besides the clueful admin and his bogon filter. Heck, sometimes you can go 2 or 3 AS's deep during a traceroute before you hit a router dropping RFC1918 space. At least, thats from my own experience from ISO 12.x.

Re: [hlds_linux] VAC false positive
Yeah but who cares. You might be able to turn it into a sale at some point. Anyway, when the customer buys your software he isn't going to magically know all your copy protection methods before they start to show up. Make it hard for them to function in every way possible and make buying a new key look like the solution to all of their problems. When your dealing with customers who already have purchased your software, its more than likely they will purchase again. You just have to give them ample opportunity and find the right way to let the person know who is making the buying decisions that he needs to buy more. I don't know about other people's situations but at a lot of places, the people buying, using, and installing are not the same people.

[hlds_linux] mp_timeleft & mp_timelimit
Hi all. Can someone tell me what the deal is with mp_timeleft and mp_timelimit. I'm not sure what mp_timeleft does. My main question is, if mp_timeleft is set to 999, and during the game I set it to mp_timeleft 25, will 25 minutes remain? What if I set both mp_timelimit and mp_timeleft to 25? It seems that there is no way to actually set the timelimit value to something during the middle of a map and have it work. I always get varying results.

Re: PB no more.....
Thats not the point. I'm just going on here-say here but I think each individual cheat is coded into Punkbuster. I'm sure the program has a couple different ways of finding out if a cheat is installed. Things like checking for registry changes a cheat makes, looking for the installation files, etc. Yes, its possible for the coders to find out how PB is detecting them and make some changes, it happens everyday I'm sure. Why give them the source though so they can update their cheat 5min after the release? I understand what you are trying to say with your openSSH example, but I don't agree. What makes a hacker a hacker is detailed knowledge of how things work. There are always going to be bugs or exploits in weaker software that could allow me to replace your SSH server binary with a custom one of my own, and then gain access via SSH. I've seen it done on customer machines running old Bind and FTP servers. I believe in open source but since the game server and client code is not open source, you will run into the same limitations PB did, and more since all the cheaters will be studying your source code.

It makes no sense to go open source. Since PB was basically reacting to cheats, if cheat coders had the source, they would know exactly how to circumvent the software.
