Could not establish connection to steam servers

[Tau]

iv been fighting with my server for a while now and i cant get it to connect to the master servers,

right after World triggered "round start", it sticks on Could not establish copnnection to steam servers.

im running the ./srcds_run -console -game cstrike +map de_dust2 -max players 24, i have also tried adding the +ip switch to no availe.

any info you could give would be much apprieciated.

Hmm, when you do your max players, do you have a space? it should be +maxplayers, since its linux, you don't need the -console switch either.

tried those, still no dice

Behind a router? forward your ports? no firewalls?

contacted my host, apparently there is an IP issue, so they are going to fix that, then i hope that ic an get it going
