Binny Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I've hosted several servers among two different Virtual Private Servers, located in different datacenters, for several months now. For the first month, maybe two, they ran perfectly, appeared on the master list and so forth, but more recently they haven't been showing up on the master list at all, all 6 of them. I'm thinking the master list has banned my servers IP addresses for some reason, although I cannot fathom why. Supporting me thinking that is the following: When are user (first IP) or say a tracking list like Gametracker (bottom IP) requests server information it typically sends a 14 byte packet asking for it, and my server promply responds with a 790-800 byte serverinfo packet. As seen below. 13:17:16.828061 IP fwddns-node1.datx01.hostnoc.net.domain > 340577.ud.no-ip.org.35877: 38259 1/2/2 PTR ppp78-37-245-62.pppoe.avangarddsl.ru.

This is clearly why it doesn't appear on the master list, but the reason the master server isnt responding to my heartbeats is confusing, to say the least. Does anyone have any insight I don't in to this problem? Link to comment
eezstreet Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 The Raven master server really sucks. I'd suggest setting one of your sv_master cvars to "master.jkhub.org", since that one is very good.You could also try opening up the port for the master server communications (33905) and making sure that your firewall isn't blocking communication with said port.

Nothing we can do cept wait it out, jar it a bit with minor port changes...wait it out... Edit: Oo you're the one who run's Wovian's in 1.00! Saw that vanish days ago and just came back.

Binny Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 It's back on the list? Well that's at least a good sign, but none of my 1.01 servers are showing up. I'd say maybe its the master server conflicting from a 1.00 and 1.01 on the same IP, but my other server only has 3 1.01 servers on it. I should have put in my post that I'd completely disabled IPTables prior to this testing, and that they have consistently not been on the list for a clean 30 days now, except for Wovian Source apparently. I would happilly use JKHub and my own master servers but the issue isn't them not working, its that not enough people have those masterlists added to their clients, and thus I don't think I'd get much traffic from it. I might try it just for the sake of it anyway, for some reason the default masterlist selection hassv_master1 "masterjk3.ravensoft.com" and sv_master5 "63.146.124.53" Which are the same address...

Binny Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 LOL your right Wovian Source is back on the master list, along with my two other servers on that box Masterful Dojo and Binnys Instagib. All 3 are showing up today like nothing happened after 30 days of not showing up. Trippy. I'ma disable iptables for long enough for it to get a solid heartbeat out, see if it fixes my other 3.

Mysterious Stranger Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I've got 1.00 and 1.01 servers on the same server too and it doesn't affect anything. 30 days? Wow, I would have raged long before that. Link to comment
Binny Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Luckily it started pretty much the same day school started again so I've been too busy for so long it seems to have fixed it self. It detected I got pissed I guess, since it fixed the same day I complained about it. Link to comment
