Adding master server 72.165.61.189:27011
Adding master server 68.142.72.250:27011
Connection to Steam servers successful.

if your server doesn't say the "Connection to Steam servers successful." i t will probably kick the user within 2 minutes.

try killing the server and restarting it.
somehow when using a different master server it just works  :-\

Doesn't work for me =] Mine says Connection to Steam servers successful as well but it keeps kicking players.

are you using linux?, the "old" linux libs may not be completely correct and may be causing it you may want to try and switch to a win32 server. :(

Windows Server 2003 for us. Updating with a command that looks like:
hldsupdatetool -command update -game tf -dir gesource_apollo

Was getting Invalid Steam key size again after the Scout update, so got new engine and steam_api binaries out of my Steam client. Now back to the same as before.

Consistently when I start up the server it will drop me in about 2 minutes. Kick message I think is the typical "No Steam logon
." The classic message dialog pops up saying there's a connection problem with VAC, and offering to troubleshoot it (all info for client-side problems, i.e. I'm an idiot and my firewall is wrong). I don't get this problem with the CSS pub on the same machine, so I'm pretty sure it's not a network problem for the server, or any kind of problem with my Steam client. Of course I've restarted Steam on my end plenty of times, as well as the server.

When i first downloaded the GES server files.. I setup the server the way I wanted it. Then I saved all the server files on  dvd-r disc and shoved it up my butt for later use.

Then the problem with valve came which fucked up all servers. Well i then i tried change stuff in the server cfg folder, but my server would not appear in the list no matter what i use, patch, gameinfo changes etc...

So I found that dvd disc, shoved it in my computers ass and uploaded the srcds files. Ran the executable file and WALAAH works. connected to steam servers successfully and shows on the server list. Im not advertising to get people in my server, but if you want to join its     Goldeneye Source Beta 3|East Coast Server|

Do you guys need any files from my server folder? any gameinfo that may help? Thanks

Edit: im working on the server so you may see it locked or not see it yet. Thanks
