What?

Did you do: http://portforward.com/cports.htm ??

If you didn't go to this address in your "INTERNET" explorer... : 192.168.1.1
And port forward... If you haven't already

can u get on it via the lan tab?

Make sure they are connecting via your external IP address.

^ to get your external ip goto

whatismyip.com

get your ip then add the port of ur server so yours would look like:

xxx.xxx.xx.xx:27015

understand?

sv_lan 0, when you connect to it you use connect 192.168.0.6:27015 , others cannot connect to it through friends, they need to do connect externalip

What is your srcds.exe command line, or target box

[Spartanfrog]

What error do people get when trying to join? Do you have -ip <LOCAL IP> in your command line?
