The actual resources used by IIS to serve a full server of 20 players a
large bzippedfile is negligible. What DOES get hit is your bandwidth. If
you don't have a solid uplink and NIC, you're going to get lag. CPU wise,
no problem at all.

This was not an issue 2.. 3 updates ago, something in the last week of
updates has caused it. I'm sure valve will get it fixed before launch
(hopefully).

Still getting this issue also. It doesn't happen to me every time, but in a
group of four players, it inevitably nails someone and we all hafta wait 5+
minutes for it to either calm down, or restart the client.
Sometimes restarting the client doesn't even fix it.

though. Maybe it does scale on smaller resolutions. :(

Does anyone have the cvar for setting the difficulty level via server.cfg?
I'd like to setup a few private servers with varying difficulty levels.

Has anyone figured out how to join a server that has slots free? One of my
servers has 2 people on it, but when I try and connect directly it basically
says sorry, it's reserved, you hafta join from a lobby.
I tried the sv_unreserve thing, but no love.
They just released an update for both client and server. I updated the
servers and restarted them. All 3 servers full instantly.. I'd say it's

Do you have the full steam client installed on your server? Or are you
running a local dedicated server on your client PC?

Not yet that I can tell. I'm pretty confused regarding this steam client

If you don't specifiy a map (on win32 anyway), the client times out
connecting to server. That's what I'm getting, anyway.

I was still using +game l4d_demo, you have to use +game left4dead for it to
launch properly. I'm not getting any errors, however in the client console
using connect , it times out.

Where do you get server.cfg from? I still have yet to see a server config

I'm afraid that this type of attack has been around since the late 90's, if
not earlier.
It's basically pounding random UDP data (or maybe now-days more structured
data) at raw listen ports. The application listening does what it's
programmed to do, parse the input and use up available resources

My hldsupatetool has finished loading the content, however I don't see

Is there going to be some sort of stock cfg file which gets released
