anyone?

[egor1908]

So what is the problem? Is it

VAC secure mode is activated. Connection to Steam servers lost.

or

cminterface.cpp (71 : Assertion Failed: 0 != m_hConnection cminterface.cpp (71 : Assertion Failed: 0 != m_hConnection

?

And how does it affect the server's stability or the game running on it?

[Gearhead]

i figured it out. It was my -ip in my command line. Its linux so it was 127.0.0.1 and not 192.168.1.107

I have the same problem on my server. I have to use +ip (it is +ip and not -ip right?) because my server has two interfaces and if it binds to the second interface then it will completely lose connection, but my L4D servers lose connection with Steam and they don't show up in the Steam group server list. The only way to fix this is to restart all of them.
