Listen server?

[BEzOR]

so, I read this http://forums.srcds.com/viewtopic/9982. Then I decided to try to run a listen server. Same EXACT problem as my dedicated server. It doesn't show up on the internet tab. And people cant connect to it. Ports are forewarned, and i put my LAN IP in the router into a DMZ. So, WTF? Is this steam's issue or mine?

EDIT:

This just in! No kind of source servers work! However other games that utilize online servers work. I can host servers on other games and it works just fine, source games, nope.

It's a listen server, so I am going to have to play on the same computer....

Read the readme. Click the image I posted.

Very unhelpful.

For us to better help you, you need to post the details we ask for in the readme: http://forums.srcds.com/viewtopic/10412

Don't call me very unhelpful when I'm trying to help you and I don't have the information to better help you.

[BEzOR]

Im sorry if you thought i was talking about you, I meant the readme,

Details i can get

IP EXTERNAL: 24.18.149.153

Bandwidth:


Local IP: 192.168.0.254


Router: Dlink, server is running on this laptop i am typing with, but the server files are on an external hard drive.


Screenshot? how do i do that?

You take a screen shot. In windows you press the PrintScrn button and past it into paint and save it as a jpeg and them upload it to the forums. Also give us a screen shot or copy and past what you get from doing an: ipconfig /all

I would be very surprised if that really was your local IP...

re-attach

Delete that second rule with your external address.
Are you 100% sure that's your internal IP address? Did you set that statically? If so, try something a little lower...

[BEzOR]

k, i deleted the rule with my external IP, although it was disabled. And I set the 192.168.0.254 ip manually. I also put my computer in a DMZ. BTW my computer has a static IP, incase u didnt already guess that


EDIT:
This just in folks! I put +sv_lan and +heartbeat in my gmod launch options, now when I start it up I get this wonderful message (Couldn't allocate any server IP port) accompanied by the crashing of my gmod

EDIT: EDIT:

Cant start any source online game now... same error. Cant even start Srcds

[Mooga]

well "+sv_lan" isn't a full command. It would be "+sv_lan 0" but that doesn't matter. nor does +heartbeat as it's an obsolete command.

Show me a screen shot of where you set it as an DMZ. If you have both a DMZ and port forwarding enabled it may confuse the router.

Have you disabled the firewall/anti-virus on the hosting system?

Also, you say you can host other games/services. What games and services? What ports are they using?

[BEzOR]

Games: Borderlands, LOTRBFME 2 (lord of the rings battle for middle earth 3) Battlefield 2142 and battlefield 2, others too oh, and STALKER shadow of Chernobyl dedicated server

Screeny is attached
hl2.exe and srcds.exe have full allowable in my router.

On my firewall: there are some things blocked, here is a list
Inbound NETBIOS
Inbound NETBIOS name
Specific outbound imcp
Windows File sharing
Microsoft Windows 2000 SMB
EPMAP
