Server OS :Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 x2 3800+ / 2.0 ghz
RAM: 4GB SilverLine Mushkins
Game: SMDS (Run from Steam GUI)

For the past few days I've been trying to run a server using the Source Multiplayer Dedicated Server that is in the tools menu on Steam. All my ports are forwarded and from what I see there shouldn't be any problems, but unfortunately there is. The problem is that when I launch the server it launches fine and everything seems to be in order. When I launch CS:S and try to add my server to favourites it finds the server and puts it in my list. Once I hit the refresh button the server disappears. For some reason it recognizes that the server is up, but doesn't let me join it. I've tried using the "connect [ip address]" command through the console and the "Steam validation rejected" error comes up. My firewall is off as well and the problem continues.
