We just had our server transferred and the new location is showing as dead and doesn't reflect when I change the hostname.

Any assistance is appreciated.

So wait till DNS update or maybe you will get a new ip.

You seem to have claimed this server and it appears as online.

Yes, thank you. It did change from dead to alive and was able to then claim it. Thank you very much for the assistance and replying.

Now this is something new. I am in the server and it went back to being "dead". What is going on? Does GameTracker not like password protected private servers?

OK... It is alive again.

Your server appears as online currently. What you could do is download HLSW (hlsw.org) and wait for the next time GT shows your server as down (when it should be up). You can then compare to see if your server should be able to be scanned.

Thx, I will do that since it is already in my HLSW.

OK, I had a chance to play on the server again, it showed dead, and HLSW failed to connect. I assume this is a GameServers issue, is there anything from your experience that I can say or mention in addition to these details?

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Is there any special case that was occuring at that moment? Eg. Does this happen only on a certain map? Or, does the server go into a special game mode that is not reporting properly? Or anything else.

I am not sure why it would only occasionally show as dead, but that could be something GameServers could look into.
