Check netstat to see what ports it's listening on:

netstat -panu |grep bf1942 should return something like this:

udp        0      0 209.221.142.126:23000   0.0.0.0:* 
         12156/bf1942_lnxded
udp        0      0 209.221.142.126:14690   0.0.0.0:* 
         12156/bf1942_lnxded
udp        0      0 209.221.142.126:14567   0.0.0.0:* 
         12156/bf1942_lnxded

23000 is the gamespy port (used by the in-game browser), 14690 is used 
by All-Seeing-Eye and 14567 is the actual game port. You'll need to make 
sure your firewall has been configured to allow these ports through.

Other than that, not sure what to suggest. Did you change 
ServerSettings.con so that game.serverInternet is set to 1 and not 0 
(assuming this is an internet server)?

Does it show up in the game browser at all? Does the server console show 
it to be succesfully running a map etc? Any more details you have will 
be useful to troubleshoot.
