Master Server List and port forwarding.

[iiimriii]

I have installed Ubuntu10 on my VPS, and successfully connected to GameCP. I did set up the game server and it is running.

BUT there is no way that I can find my server in Steam Master server list. I have searched many forums and googled many times and it seems I have to portforward but I don't have a tutorial to forward ports correctly in ubuntu. I have tried the region thing also.

In my console I am always getting:
Failed to load Steam ServiceServiceStart: failed to start

I would appreciate some feedback. Thanks in advance.

More digging I think, I don't have to port forwarding in VPSs

It is solved, I was using wrong method to search for my server name (bummer )

what I would tell you is this,

if it is vps or dedi dont bother about portforwarding, but check if iptables is blocking required ports by valve.

check sv_region and set it to 255 sv_lan 0.

while making the search in steam browser set the criteria for your current conditions of your server and take a careful look (which I didn't do

if it is at home than I haven't done enough search for it sorry

You should set your sv_region to what it actually is. Player's server browsers tend to load servers located in their region first.
