I had my server running last night before I left to goto a friends house to get his server configured.
A couple hours later after getting things ready we tried to connect to his.. Of course no go.
In attempts to figure out what was going on I connected to my server.
It worked fine.
I logged into my home machine and restarted the server and tried again.
Of course it wasn't working at that point, so this 30 minute delay is very possible.
From what I can tell it has to do with the cdkey verification.
What I believe, all the person did that released this multi crack was hex-edit the exe file and change the url for the cdkey server to something stupid..
(look in the server window after everthing loads and you'll know what I mean)..
What I think is happening is the server is waiting for a connection to the cdkey server and has to time out before it allows connections.
I've tried putting the original exe back in and editing the host file to redirect to a working ip address and the same thing basically happens.
Looks like this crack is bad and we'll just have to wait for someone to put out a correct crack.
