I can't get people to join my server and I am pretty sure I have everything set up everything right. Everything I have read about on here I have tried to no avail. If it is working and just nobody wants to join it how would I know? Thanks a lot.

Ask a few people to see if your server is online by adding it to their favorites list by IP-address.

Alright can anyone tell me if the server is up? It says two IPs when I start the server so I don't know which one is right:

72.165.61.189:27011
or
68.142.72.250:27011

And neither of these match the one from whatismyip.com:
70.187.203.190

And none of those match the one on my comp when I type ipconfig in the cmd:
192.168.1.105

So I have no idea which one my actual IP is so if anyone ha some extra time could you try all of those IPs to see if my server is up. Thanks sooooo much.

i can tell that you are behind a router and without fowarding the right ports you cannot host a server. i can tell because you said ipconfig gave you 192.168.1.105 which is the internal address assigned by your router.

EDIT: OK, I forwarded the ports but now how do I make my srcds use those specific ports? Do I have to add something to the server.cfg or do I add it in my run command. Thanks.

BTW, I use the console version of srcds.

Otherwise, I think it works. Can anyone test this IP: 70.187.203.190
And if anyone can connect to that does that mean that is on the master server list?

Thanks a lot.

add -port 27015 to the startupline to be sure the server will actually use 27015, however I've never seen it use a different port unless that particular port is being used by another srcds instance Smile.

BTW, it's working, I can successfully connect from Holland. -=nYg=- BREAKFLOOR, 70.187.203.190:27015, 6/10 players, VAC secure
