Massive player timeout

[BrutalGoerge]

On my TF2 linux server, every so often, on my server, most of the people playing till just timeout for no reason... like the server is dropping them. It doesn't drop everyone, but it does a good portion of those playing.

what is going on?

Whats your bandwidth.

[BrutalGoerge]

I am running 3 other servers on this machine, none of which this happens on, so it's irrelevant.
But it's tier1 10mega-bit

O dam nice lol. Your right though it is irrevelant. Do you have a router or something in between the server and the internet connection? What ports are u using as well?

This is a dedicated server from softlayer... 5ip's, so I am using the default port 27015
this happens so rarely that I think it's a srcds problem, and not a networking/hardware one, but it does happen often enough for me to want to try and fix it.

Ok I just wanted to make sure you werent re-using ports but if you 5 IP then it should work.

Only thing I could find is people having problems with VAC, but when people are booted cuz of VAC, they don't timeout, and it says "No Steam Logon" when they leave. =\

Well that is a steam problem not a srcds problem.
