Welcome to the wonderful world that is known as Valve "figure it out

Thanks for all the replies. The search key as MIke Zimmermann describes

Matt,
I do the same thing with my servers that you want to do by making use of the
sv_search_key, and *not* sv_steamgroup_exclusive (using the two of them together

Hi All,
There seems to be a lot of misleading/confusing information on forums and
3rd party support sites regarding dedicated server setup for L4D
