I tried setting up a new server today, and got it working. Except: it won't show up in the steam master list.
The server's config file includes the alleged fix stickied in this forum, but that doesn't work either. I've also tried several other solutions from the Internet and can't find anything.
When I run the Orangebox srcds for HL2DM, the server shows up in the master list. It also outputs a message in my console telling me the public IP and the anonymous steam ID for the server.
So, a few questions:
1. Should FF servers that are working properly show the public IP and an anonymous steam ID in the console?
2. Are there any other possible solutions, no matter how esoteric, to the master server list problem?
My server's environment:
- Cloud VPS behind a virtual router. Ports 26000 to 28000 are currently forwarded for TCP and UDP.
- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server.
- ufw firewall with the same ports opened. The behavior is the same with or without the firewall up.
