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.

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...
