Reported by Alfred Reynolds, 2 hours ago in hlds linux:

Quote:

Updates to the Source and Half-Life 1 dedicated server have been
released. Run the hldsupdatetool to get this update.

This update makes public the "swapbeta" that has been running for a
while. This update is optional but HIGHLY recommended as it fixes the
steamid swapping bug seen on servers. This update also smoothes out some
spiky CPU usage seen on servers and fixes several crashes on Linux
distributions using older GLIBC versions.

I have been running this beta for a while now, and haven't got a single report of mixed up steamid's or pending steamid's. This beta has gone public 2 hours ago, as you can ready by Alfred's comment. So update your servers!

We have been running the beta and still encounterd issues with STEAM_ID_PENDING, which has been communicated to steam. (Which was not replied on, which caused a faulty update as the problem still issnt 100% solved.)(windows)
