[split] tf2 server not showing up on master list

[blahblahkiller]

Ok, I was looking over the internet for a reason why my tf2 server won't show up on the internet list. I don't see any answers here would someone know why its not listing?

When I boot it I use this line on my linux server.

tf2@isolnet:~/orangebox$ ./srcds_run -console -game tf +ip localhost -port 27015 +maxplayers 24 +map cp_orange_x3_ddr +exec server.cfg -insecure +sv_lan 0

(Ok I know what each command does in the boot option; however, when it boots its only listed in my lan tab and can't find it on the internet tab)

Ok so the server install works, the server is booted I can connect to the server via LAN. So we know the server does work and I can play on it...

Now its not listing on the internet tab and my friends can't see my server.

So, first of all let me clear up that my router has that linux server on my network in the DMZ so its not firewalled.

I tried the +ip (mystaticip) but it will only use my servers ip address which is 192.168.1.102

So can anyone tell me why it won't show up on the internet?

[realchamp]

I moved post this its own thread.

Try with this:

Code:

./srcds_run -console -game tf +maxplayers 24 +map cp_orange_x3_ddr -insecure

Also can you post your server.cfg in some code tags?

And you might go have a look here: http://forums.srcds.com/viewtopic/7124

[blahblahkiller]

Sorry about that and thanks for moving it. I'm thinking since I'm local I just can't see it on the internet but maybe others can. I think it will only show it on the lan tab for me. I will post my server.cfg but its just a basic one I found on the internet cause the server software I downloaded didn't have a copy so I didn't know what to put.

I'm not sure how to post it in "tags" I'm not much of a forum users Here is my server.cfg

Maybe if someone could look to see if the server is listed on the internet tab for me, thats all I really would like to know if its showing up. You don't have to connect, I'm not looking to gain alot of users like most of everyone else just wanted to host my own server because its a quad xeon and thought it would be alittle faster for my users.

Thanks for all of your help, I know I just signed up, but this site has alot of useful information and I'm now glad to be a part of it.

I see you're using alot of CVars for Counter-Strike: Source on a Team Fortress 2 server.

Well check your IP here, this IP is the one you should give your friends. I do believe, you can't see it online when you check on this IP. Check here

You also need portforwarding, to check if they even are opened go here and enter port 27015.

Thats a cool little tool, thanks for the link. It showed my ip and I entered the port and it said my service is running. So internet users have access to my game server. Now what about in stream on the internet tab. Does it take a few weeks for it to start listing there for other users to come across it automaticly? and if so is there any way to verifiy this myself since its only listing on the lan tab? And thanks by the way for the quick replys, you've been a great help.

[blahblahkiller]

Is there a link for the default TF2 server.cfg or a place I can find it? So I can get rid of the CS options?

[realchamp]

Here's a server.cfg for TF2. It's standard, that it doesn't create one itself. Just copy/paste this into a server.cfg file in your cfg directory.

You can check if it is in the master list, just by searching for it. But if your service is opened, your mates can connect with:

Code:

connect ip:27015

(In Team Fortress 2 ingame console)

I think that you can't see it in the masterlist, only other peoples can. And you can't connect to the IP at: http://myip.dk - only the IP that your computer has on lan.

Thanks alot for all the help, you can close this post as I got things running pretty good for not asking that many questions. I still have one problem, but I already created a new post for that one lol everytime someone respawns they have no health... :\

Anyways, thanks for the help. I think I got most of it figured out now.
