Setti - fair serverlist.

Big part of servers have another ports and they real.

We can not do it, sorry.

then beside the ports you know server work,block all other,this is the best way to block all the redirect,if you dont want to do that, is clear is some "money" in this " game "

Server can work in any port. Normal and fakes have the same abilities.

Yes,but beside all that i say in the first,are rarrely , block as i say ,and the redirects will not work anymore.

There are more than 200 servers in other ports.

[CheSo]

this is the life,they must chage the port, and thats it.

[MvPRO Administrator]

It`s not fair.

We must support all real servers, which dont break rules.

After Valve closed fakehlds - romanian redirect project - now as I see there are a lot of romanian servers that migrated to setti. Why? Because they found a way to use setti masterservers in their redirect. How are they doing it? It think that they encrypt the redirects from setti in their executables and open a small amount of redirects to avoid being caught. I don' know more but there is a increase of fake redirect servers in setti from romania. Just an example:

LinkMania DeathMatch CS1.6 #1 is a redirect server that is masked as a real one. By your methods it seems a very legit server but it isn't.
If you try to connect to it it will redirect you to:

IP: 81.196.104.142:27016
or
IP: 109.99.128.50:29055
or
IP: 77.36.47.198:29055
or
IP: 77.36.47.200:29055


I don't know how they are doing it but I can see the result: the list from setti is slowly but surely loaded with fake (redirect) servers from romania.

find those 200 ports,are not so much,and the time to find it are maxim 24 h, i think... this is the "job" you must do to escape from redirects.

200 minumum number.

In real more than 1000.

Then, allow only 1 port per ip.

[MvPRO Administrator]

Then, allow only 1 port per ip.

It`s really hard to realize.

This is just ONE guy and look how he flooded your masters in just less than a day

Maybe if you can get one of this redirects software from them and analyze how it works you can find a solution...I can provide a link in p.m. if you want...

What I saw is that they use ports starting from 29000 but this is not a general rule. You can have legit servers on that ports too. I think that dropping protocol 47 could also work but I don't know. It's difficult, took Valve a lot of years to escape from those redirects and they managed to do that at some extend only by threatening with legal measures...
