Hey all.
Today I was thinking for a possible way to reach my real HLDS's IP address through some kind of proxy running on another VPS, in order to hide my real target IP address.
I successfully installed nmap/netcat on a VPS running Ubuntu Server 14.04. Then I ported all incoming TCP/UDP traffic on port 27015 redirecting on port 27015 to the VPS the HLDS is running on.
All the traffic is being received/sent fine, BUT, when I'm trying to connect via the proxy IP (which auto-redirects to the real IP) from my client, the "Connecting..." window stops at 3 first orange bars and then "kicks" me with either message "Host_Error: UserMsg: Not Present on Client 19" OR "Bad command character in client comman".
My questions are 3:
Can it be fixed in any way?
Does this happen because Valve wants to prevent redirect scamming?
If I finally find a way to make it, will my target IP be transparent through the tunnelling? I want to hide it completely somehow, but don't ask why
Thanks in advance.
