okay.. so i have a dedicated server and i go to run it so my buddy and i can play on it. I can get on it fine but he cant find it in the "server list" so he clicks on the friends tab.. sees it and clicks on it.. it says "server not responding"

i am NOT running a router. does anybody know why this happens?

i'd find out exactally what the friend that can connect types in to connect. perhaps friend number two is leaving out the port number.

ps the port number comes after the : so like xx.xx.xxx.xxx:portnumber
i believe the default is 27015, but for my ded i always used 27016, dont remember why.

hope i helped

Just give him your IP no port, it will scan automaticly, that might work.

i wouldnt use the steam friends thing for anything.

also yea connect ip:port, since it is a ded server you might have it on 27016 which you would have to type in, also sometimes if you dont type in the default port it wont let you connect until you do.

also try having him add the server to favorites including the port number
