Server crashes everyone's computer...

[Daniel Malmgren]

Hmmm.  Here's an issue that may have been covered already but who knows.  Anyways.  Got the new version up and running, seems to work fine.  Also I can connect with Kevin's RemoteServer Program and change the values etc just fine...but it seems when anyone tries to connect to the server the persons game locks up and hangs...this happens on my Windows XP comp as well as a buddy of mine's as well.  The server seems to be checking for a CD Key validation.

I am running Mandrake 9.0, AMD Duron 1 Ghz with 256 MB DDR Ram. Was trying to run XPack 1...and connect using BF 1942: Road to Rome (retail, not burned copies or anything)...  Totally locks my comp up...not sure what the deal is.  Here's my -

Anyone have any ideas why in the new version I can't connect....We can connect using our client version to other servers, just not mine...? :)
Seems to have something to do with the CD authentication sequence cause it gets to that point that's when the freeze occurs (before it will load the map on the client comp).  Oh and we both have 512 KBps cable conx...
