started server using

./cod4_lnxded* +set dedicated 2* *+set net_ip 209.242.12.190 +set 
net_port 38961* +set fs_basepath /home/msanborn/COD4 +set fs_homepath 
/home/msanborn/COD4 +set fs_savepath /home/msanborn/COD4 +exec 
server2.cfg +map_rotate

netstat -anp* output i only see 1 COD4 port
udp  0  0 209.242.12.190:38961 0.0.0.0:* 
3122/cod4_lnxded-bi


Log file has nothing when trying to connect to the server.

I am using the same box on the same connection witch was running my 
win2k3 server. Nothing on the switch or router has changed. I'm not 
doing nat. I have SELinux and the firewall disabled completely. But I 
agree, something is still blocking it. Anyway for me to find out what or 
where?
