[bf1942] server fail?

[Dave Stone]

Well the only thing I see in your ServerSettings.con that might mess up the
way your game is listed in a broswer is the "game.serverName" setting. Right
now your server should show up as "Commander" because there needs to be
underscores between the words. Like "Commanders_Linux_Server". The same goes
with any welcome mesages you may add like: "TKers_will_be_banned". Also do
what Brad suggested and join by the servers IP address to make sure the
server is up.
