How do you get tyhe server to go into Secure mode.

I have edited the liblist.gam file and set secure "1" which works with every mod but the server still starts up in none secure mode.

I read that VAC is fully implimented is NS so why is it not working.

Windows dedicated server

And it is not a problem that the server box cannot get to speakeasy cus our clan has 2 CS servers running on the same box and both of those are in secure mode no problems.

    Just FYI, VAC is 98.724% useless. Before you use it on your own server, I'd recommend you get a handfull of cheats, switch your cdkey, install one at a time, and go test it yourself on some pubs with different configurations. (Don't be lame though, sit in your spawn and stand in the corner or whatever, don't ruin other people's game.)

    You'll be really suprised and/or dissapointed.

    yeh, i run a CS server with VAC and HLGuard, Currently they both dont work against newer hacks, but they do stop the older ones. (but nobody uses those anyways)

    yeah they do. they are the easiest to get. but fastest to ban. HLgaurd works great if you have if configured right.

    VAC is really only good against wallhacks. AimBots and such HLgaurd is very good. But wallhacks are almost not needed in NS because of the parasites and motion tracking.

    i have HLguard on mode 14, and it still doesnt detect the newest OGC hacks.

    Well, this has gotten a bit too off-topic. VAC will definitely be included in the next full client/server patch. It requires Valve to do some things, and the timing was a bit off right before release so it had to be pulled out. It worked fine though, and caught all the cheats that VAC catches.
