LAN Server has wrong IP (127.0.1.1)

I have setup HLDS on my Ubuntu box, and am trying to run a L4D Versus LAN server. Unfortunatly I am encountering a few problems in the process. I've tried following the Linux Setup Guide posted in these forums and modifying them as best I can for a LAN server, as well as stitching together various resources from other forums and wikis, but nothing I have done has really helped the problem.

If anyone can give me a hand, I'd be extremely grateful.

The server.cfg file:
Code:
hostname Left 4 Cake

rcon_password ******

mp_gamemode versus
motd_enabled 0
sv_lan 1
Startup Command:
Code:
./srcds_run l4d -autoupdate +exec server.cfg +map l4d_vs_farm01_hilltop
Startup Output:
Code:
Auto detecting CPU
Using AMD Optimised binary.
Server will auto-restart if there is a crash.
Could not locate steam binary:./steam, ignoring.

#Game.dll loaded for "L4D - Co-op - Normal"

Adding master server 72.165.61.189:27011
Sending heartbeat to master server...
   VAC secure mode disabled.
The game shows up on my Main Menu of L4D on my Windows rig, but when I attempt to connect to it, it tries to connect using the IP 127.0.1.1 rather than 192.168.0.218.

Any ideas how I should go about fixing this? I seem to have had no luck so far. I have toyed with the +ip, +hostip, +port, +hostport but found no combination that fixed the issue, any assistance would be extremely appreciated!


EDIT:
I have tried using +ip 192.168.0.218 in the startup command, and the output properly shows that IP address, but the server no longer shows up on my windows L4D main menu...

NVM, I've given up on this approach, I think it has something to do with the /etc/hosts file or something. I am now going to try running the windows HLDS server under WINE to see if that has any more luck.
