VAC Update - 56k Problem

Posted by Blitz at 22:25 21/11/2002.

Eric Smith (VALVe) has sent word that they've updated the security modules on servers again. This time the problem was due to some 56k users experiencing disconnects, here's the lowdown:

"We've updated the public security modules again. Some clients with 56k connections have been experiencing problems where they get intermittently disconnected when playing on secure servers. These security modules should help correct those problems.

Your Counter-Strike and Day of Defeat servers should update themselves automatically. Let me know if you have any problems with these security modules and we'll look into them right away."

Only CS and Day of Defeat servers are affected, as per usual.

Update: Eric also had this word of advice for those of you having problems with your servers:

"If your server has problems each time we update the security modules, make sure you're running the latest beta server. It should fix the problem - http://dev.valve-erc.com/?go=server_beta
