My bandwidth was struggling tonight, I think it's probably because of *ahem* other stuff running as it's been a lot better previously.

Thanks, in the process of doing it now.

OK i have my server configured and can connect up to it via the lan tab in CS but it doesnt appear as a server in the server listing and i cant connect to my external ip. Now i'm not sure if my router just doesnt like me trying to connect to my external address or something is getting blocked (although i see no problems in the logs). Think i'll need someone to check and see if it's visiable for them, will try and catch someone tomorrow on Xfire / steam friends.

Also RCON, i have tried rcon_password password followed by changelevel mapname but it doesnt want to do it, says it is not a server. Am i doing something wrong?

Connect to your internal IP address Cliffy - the vast amount of home routers won't allow connections from the internal network to the WAN IP address.

'twas a good game last night.. really looking forward to getting a server into the datacentre at work, will avoid the *ahem* lag issues.

I guessed as much. Works fine internally but wanted to confirm it was showing ok to the outside world. I'll get it up and running tonight after the wife has gone to bed and see if i can get anyone on to test it.

I have the GunGame3 mod working nicely on it

Cliffy, make sure you've got all the appropriate ports open in your router and as said, connect using your local address not your external address.

Also, run it from a command prompt, not using the GUI.

And if you can do it, run it on a seperate PC to that which you're playing the actual game on.
