TF2 - Server Not Appearing in Server Browser

[GT500]

I recently set up a TF2 server, and while the setup is pretty easy, I cannot get the server to show up in TF2's in-game server browser. I am able to add it to my favorites and I am able to connect to it and play around, however I do not see it in the normal server browser list even if I sort by IP address and disable all filters. I've also tried setting sv_region to 0, 1, and -1 to see if it would show up, and that has no effect (technically I should be considered US East Coast).

Just for reference, here is my server config, in a text file:


  server.cfg.txt (Size: 3.99 KB / Downloads: 18)

Also, just an FYI, the server is running on a CentOS 5 box that I'm renting from a server host in Kansas City.

Try adding this to your server.cfg

sv_master_legacy_mode 1
setmaster remove hl2master.steampowered.com:27011
setmaster remove hl2master.steampowered.com:27015
setmaster add hl2master.steampowered.com:27011
setmaster add hl2master.steampowered.com:27015
heartbeat

Unfortunately, that does not appear to have helped.

What ports need to be open in my firewall? I have 27015, 27011, and 27005 open. Do I need any more than that?

Steam's support say that 27000 - 27050 should be open if i'm not totally off.

Thanks. I opened the ports, but don't have time to check and see if that helped, so I will do so as soon as I get home.

Hurray! It's listed now!

I had a feeling that it might have been a port issue. Thank you for the assistance guys!
