Dedicated Server HOW-TO

[Vyper]

This weekend wanting to test the latest beta, I installed all the files and the hotfix.

While I haven't had issues before and have had a test sever run for weeks for myself and squad mates to play with....what I started getting now is a message box in steam saying Steam logging server off.

I can run the server, I can join it behind my router as lan, but steam just fails to "post" the server, and no one can join even when trying directly (which I'm assuming has to be controlled via steam also).


Ports are open, router is working, 2nd computer is hardwired to router, 2nd account is connected and running steam as required.


Anyone have any ideas what changed or what is happening?


Thanks.
