Help with mounting steam workshop mods

Probably an idiotic question, but how do I get my steam workshop mods to mount onto a server so I can test they are working?

I've published 2 minor tweaks onto the workshop, subscribed to them, activated them in NS2, then I create a server. Reading the console when I load, it says it is mounting the mod.

Then nothing. The server loads up vanilla NS2. Using -game ## -hotload on my mods without workshop is fine, but otherwise I cannot get them to take effect.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

    Derp. I assumed that was another mod since mental dialogue went "Well my mod starts with an 'm'...".

    Will try making it public. Atm its only showing to friends.

    Edit: Yep that was it. Thanks. Whats the point of private setting if you cannot use it?!
