the master lists ( no authing server ).

Yep, that solution doesn't allow you to see the game in Gamespy, ASE, or
any 
master browse lists.  However, I've setup my Linux box that way, simply
because 
I had no other solution.  Now, I opened the proper ports in ipchains and
on my 
Linksys router, and my clanmates can add the server as a favorite in the
in game 
browser.  When you are running a clan practice server, that's all you
need. 

>I suggest someone seeing the problem gets out tcpdump and does a full
trace. I must be something to do with either: 1. DNS 2. routing 3. ip
config
 
What leads me to think it's a true cod_lnxded problem is that I have
NONE of 
these problems when running a server off my Win XP Professional box.
Same home 
LAN.  The two different computers sitting about 3 feet apart.  I don't
have to 
take down ZoneAlarm, open up ANY ports in the router.  I just fire up a
dedicated 
server, and it shows up in Gamespy.  People start joining.
