Re: [hlds_linux] client dropped by server
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Well, consider that the frequency of these svc_bad drops has increased recently, I think there is cause to suspect something has changed. Whether this change is in a popular plugin such as metamod or amxmod, or in hlds itself, I have no idea. But a couple of months ago, we started getting lots of reports of this problem happening.

Re: [hlds_linux] client dropped by server
I am using a 10-100 switch. Everything worked fine until the latest steam update. Also it is only srcds having this issue. I also run a 1.6 server on the same box and it runs w/o a hitch..same for the teamspeak server. A bad nic or switch would affect all those processes not just srcds. I have all power mangement turned off(this is a dell pweredge sc430) both in linux and in the bios.

Re: [hlds_linux] client dropped by server
The only time I have seen svc_bad messages and clients dropping is when I have been sending the client too much traffic from my plugin or when my plugin spends too much time outputting debug information and the client times out. Make sure you are not flooding your network with data and that it is all switched and performing correctly. Matt. kama randomly typed the following on 01/30/2006 12:34 AM: Ok, if so...

Re: [hlds_linux] client dropped by server
UDP is considerably harder to masquerade given it's datagram model (which doesn't hold a connection open).

Re: [hlds_linux] client dropped by server
Each router and router firmware version has a unique way of mangling UDP packets, apparently UDP is not as rigorously tested as TCP.
