Reply With Quote #1

Hi guys,

So recently all my servers started acting very weird. They drop clients for "No Steam Logon" and right before the messages appear in the chat the server lags out, showing the red "Connection Error" message in the upper right corner. It is really annoying, and the lag also occurs when a player leaves/joins (not so huge spikes then). Me and a friend was playing on two of our servers, he was playing on one in the UK, I was playing on one in Denmark, both servers lagged out at the exact same time, displaying the connection error. Any idea what this is?

Both machines are hosted on a 100 Mbit line.

From some of the recent posts on the Valve mailing list I believe the No Steam Logon message is a problem at their end, it should be sorted soon.

The Win32 discussion or Linux is fine but IMO this mailing list should come with a requirement of proof of server ownership in order to utilize it. Seems its getting exploited and used by too many "regular players" or "noobs" if you want to use that term to vent frustration of other issues not related to server administration. Then its not policed to the point to ban out the addresses of those that are just being plain ole asses on it so its just getting trashed lately. I've pretty much ruled out several people on it cause of that non-sense.

thank you for the information, I've subscribed to those lists :

hlds
hlds_announce
hlds_linux

it's strange that there isn't srcds's own list

Someone on the hlds_linux mailinglist posted a few iptables-rules for blocking the packets, since then I haven't noticed any lag.

Would any of the plugins that I have running cause lag upon a playerjoin?

Well I'm fairly certain it isn't plugin based or webserver based or mysql based. In the sense that any plugins that had any contact with non flat files, e.g. mysql or socket based plugins have been disabled and I'm still having problems.

In addition I have been having random freezes and crashes (which may have been solved by rcon_lock). However I can not be sure that these two issues are related to the steamauth problem. There are far too many variables here for me to definitively say what might be causing these steamauth problems (apart from blaming Valve ). I however did think that Valve had fixed this problem, or at least found the cause of it.

Well, in a "thread", Fletcher replied that the "No Steam Logon" was not the Steam backend's fault, and that there was something else causing it. I don't believe him :@
