Re: tf2 logaddress_add - working?

Not a firewall issue, all 3 servers run on the same box.

Weird, I come back from lunch, and now it's working (just tested) ....
ok, nm

Thanks anyways :)

You could try retrieving the log from your server with HLSW. It works 
exactly the same (your syntax for it is correct, by the way.) Possible 
firewall blocking it?

Dunno if it helps you in any way but when I specify CPU_MHZ environment 
variable to value lower then actual cpu frequency then it works fine on 
FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE (tested on both xeon and opteron and it seems that 
CPU_MHZ also has to be multiple of 100).

Re: Half-Life 1 Engine Update Released

And how should I specify the CPU_MHZ lower?

Thanks,
Herk.

On 3.2Ghz xeon I do:
CPU_MHZ=3000 ./hlds_run -game cstrike ...

or in shell script:
export CPU_MHZ=3000
./hlds_run -game cstrike ...

I only tested it for a few hours so it still might crash (doesn't bother 
me that much as our servers are run on demand so they don't run 24/7).

Also, there might be some unexpected effects on server when doing this, 
but I have yet to see any.

Anyway, let's hope Valve fixes the problem soon.

Re: Half-Life 1 Engine Update Released

Why to low the cpu mhz? If its higher then you will get more performance?

Re: Half-Life 1 Engine Update Released

Hello,
I did the same but nothing changes, still crashing.

Thanks,
Herk.

Interesting, I wonder why it helps on my machines then.

I don't think you get more performance from higher values, I actually 
have no idea for what hlds uses this value. It normally reads cpu 
frequency from /proc/cpuinfo but you can set it yourself with that variable.

Re: Half-Life 1 Engine Update Released

Well mine it basically doesn't stay up more than 1 hour or so. Also
regarding the /proc/cpuinfo, I don't have /proc/cpuinfo - its
/compat/linux/proc/cpuinfo. Maybe you should test it for a long time and
see what happens, also what is the command line that you use to start your
server?

Thanks,
Herk.

Well that CPU_MHZ overrides cpuinfo I think so it shouldn't matter.

My exact commandline is:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. CPU_MHZ=3000 ./hlds_i686 -game cstrike +servercfgfile 
server20000.cfg +mapcyclefile maplist20000.cfg -port 20000 +maxplayers 
10 -secure

BTW I really sent my original message only so that developers know that 
there seems to be some correlation between the problem and cpu frequency 
hlds detects. I didn't know people will start to try to use it (it's 
very ugly "solution").
