Porblems With Lan Server

ormurin · September 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">weird problem</div> I have sucessufully installed ns on my lan linux server. Almost everything is
working fine, all excpt "the refresh button" on the client. The server can't
be seen on the "lan games" menu on the client. If i connect via console
("connect 192.168.0.11(:27015)") then it works fine. I can even see the game
on gamespy.

Who can i fix this?

I have already got this cvar:
sv_ nomaster 1
sv_lan 1
mp_uplink 0
(and arg) -nomaster -port 27015

Should i use another port? (the conterstrike mod works just fine on this port.(both are not running at the same time!)

Serversystem:
1,333ghz AMD thunderbird
512mb SD ram
100mbits netcard
9.0 Redhat
3.1.1.0 hlds port

I have this same exact issue under steam. The workaround I use is to add a server under favorites. It appears the lan browser has some issues at the moment.

also, if you have ip x.x.x.x on your command line try removing this and putting it in your ns/autoexec.cfg file. There have been reports on the HLDS mailing list that this fixes the missing lan server.

Try running your server with those cvars in the command line as well as in the server.cfg

i.e. ./hlds_run ... +sv_lan 1

See if that helps - it may not be detecting them from the server.cfg for whatever reason.
