After i have installaed rh90 and patched it with all patches via apt-get for rh90 and upgraded the kernel to 2.6.1 i have a rock solid server where we host hlds ther run with 350-550 fps server side witn 3 x 12 users on.

Seeing as how I keep hearing that hlds runs better on 2.6 with HT on. This is a redhat question. I installed apt on it because of the dumb RH crap with up2date. And yes I installed the apt version for RH 7.3 like i was supposed to. :) I am sure there are other admins here who went thru this, thats why I asked here. Thanks for any help anyone can offer. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:hlds_l [EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Nicholas Hockey Sent: Wednesday, January 28, 2004 10:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] 2.6 Kernel Upgrade -- -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative This does not sound like a hlds related question, why not ask on a debian mailing list, or a linux news group (i assume you run debian beacuse you said apt-get) it might be a glibc issue, who knows, without a more specific error it's hard to deter ine your problem, please look into another method of reciving a solution, or e-mail me off list.

Re: [hlds_linux] Another, Thank you Valve for bringing us Steam - thread
Hi Terrance, I can garanti that no one from out side denmark can se my servers because i am using my ISP peerings list as a firewall ip list witch i update every week from my isp, so that no one can se the server from out side the c-net?s i allow. U cant even ping it or scan it, i simpel dont respond to any request from out side the c-net list i provide for it. but in my calculation, 95 servers x 16 slots = 1520 slots and if the add are beeing downloaded 1520 times ahour or more depending on how many connections my server park get ahour its can multiplie to alot of data, even if the add only are 100kb its mounts up to 100kb x 1520 x 24 = 3648000kb or 3562mb thats roughly the increse of international trafic a day. Well when i get the time i will set up a singel server on box and check it out with trafik and packed inspection so that we can sure that just pay for the trafic for our public free servers ant not pay for the content server prodiverds add?s. Ill hope that valve/steam will come up with some clearification on this subject, it woud be nice to get valve more active on this mail list so we dont have to make all the work our self in lack of missing information from valve/steam abour their product.

With the advent of 1.6 a lot of people are looking for servers to play on, since a lot of servers out there are still 1.5 I can't see the advertising content creating that much of an increase as it's generally just a small bit of code that's being sent, along with a small graphic. And wouldn't the add be sent to the client and not the server? Not sure on that one .

RE: [hlds_linux] 5 reasons i'm shutting down my HL Servers
Hi Drew, I have had the same problems running more than 2 or 3 hlds serveres on Intel CPU?s. I have testet following HArdware/Software. Intel Server board. Intel Pentium 4. 2.8(exeon) Intel Server NIC 10/100 Kingston 1GB DDR 2700 mem. Raid ide133 7200 rpms With the old cs 1.3 or erlier there was no problem running 6 x 12 slots with adminmod,metamod,statsme and other plugins like spawn protection, restrictions. Today with steam cs 1.6 i can only run 4 serveres and its with out pingboost 1,2,3 and its with out 1000mhz linux kernl. All i get out off steam cs 1.6 on the linux server side with the intel binarys are 4 x 12 slots without pingboost 1,2,3 is a hlds steam server with constant 50 fps server side and a higher ping than the old cs 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 versions.. but the ping are stabel and the server are bug free if your ask some high aimers. But the CPU usages are way to high, i cant even fit a extra test server in there are not in use. This set up is using debian, i have testet, suse,redhat,win2k and found out that Debian are running best, its use less cpu usages and drivers than suse and rh. I have another server 100% same hardware speecs. This is where its beginng to get fun: Intel Server board. Intel Pentium 4. 2.8(exeon) Intel Server NIC 10/100 Kingston 1GB DDR 2700 mem. Raid ide133 7200 rpms Debian and Redhat 9.0 testet on this system with 1000mhz kernl update. Now i can only run 2 serveres and i use like 60-70% cpu usages. but i get 700-1000 fps server side and the ping are 20-30(10-20 without pingboost 1) lower than the non 1000mhz kernl. and when i test with a extra servere on the system all servers goes crazy, all pings are spiking but and no its not the server setup. i can follow the respons time on the nic and there are no problem. As i can see the intel binaries from valve need a p4/p4(exeon)/p4 dual optimise ASAP. This is the most wierd part, i can run the same amount of servers on a amd 2.4 1gb desktop board form a noname manufacture and a ide 66 hdd 7200 rpms. The Amd computer is a old desktop with a amd 2.4ghz 1gb ram, desktop motherboard, ide66 7200 rpms, Debian and redhat. and i get less cpu usages then on the 1000mhz linux kernl intel server installed system even that the amd system also use 1000mhz kernl. I cant say i higher, VALVE NEEDS TO OPTIMISE THE Intel Binaries both for Dual/Quad installations and the Pentium 4 cpu class and the Pentium Exeon Class.
