my server doesnt work
#1
Ok, i opened ports on the router, its a belkin wired router, i disabled firewalls and made sure antivirus allowed it and all, i made sure it was internet, not lan, when i run srcds, it lets me join, but i cant see it on the master server list, then ip address is given to friends, they say its not responding.... any ideas?

Your positive you gave them your external ip. sorry have to ask. You wont see your own server in the master list. The best way to tell if its posted is let it sit for about an hour, then go to gametiger.com and type in your IP and see if it shows up. If it did then its on the master list.

Are you absolutely postive you forwarded the ports for the right IP address. I know also in some routers port forward config page, there is an enable radio button you have to click before it will actually take effect.

Its better to add the ports yourself. You have to forward the ports for the internal ip address of your server in order for it to work. say ur server is ran from internal ip 192.168.1.102. then you would have to forward all those ports for that specific IP.

also, how do u start up srcds, i just double clicked the lil icon.... i heard i might have to do somin with run or somin...

Yeah u cant click on the srcds.exe icon it wont do anything. You have to use run. When you port forward anything it always asks for what IP you want to forward the ports on. You cant just open up 27015 and have it work. Where you type in the ports you need forwarded there should be a lil box for an IP address also. Thats where you type in your internal IP address of the server. If you want you can post a screenie of the port forward config page and I can show you how to fill it out.

thats not the problem. if you look under the tutorials section it tells you a basic command line to use in run to get the server started.
