Hey Guys,

I have a big problem. I have a Rootserver with Debian 4.0 sr1 32 Bit Etch.
I have installed CS 1.6 with metamod and amxmodx.

My problem is that the Server can't connect to the Steam servers. VAC can't load and if I connect to the Server then come this error message:

Dropped Player from Server
Reason: Error verifying STEAM UserID Ticket(server was
unable to contact the authentication server).

Sometimes comes this:
SteamStartValidatingUserIDTicket: Returned ESteamError 25
Reason: Error verifying STEAM UserID Ticket(server was
unable to contact the authentication server).

I have completely new installed the server. I have startet the server without any mods but still nothing.


I have no idea how I can fix this.

Check your iptables, it may be blocking the port that VAC connects to. I think it's 27014?

hmm I think the port is free because I had started a Server on this port.But now there is no server more.

Edit: I don't know how but the problem with the error messages by connecting ist fixed. The problem atm is only that I haven't VAC...

Sometimes it doesnt connect, based on connection issues, nothing with the server, if anything its on steams side, but I get that soemtimes, and restart the server and its fixed or it takes a few times. Connection issues most of the time, i know urs is fixed, just thought id add that
