Problems with playing
« on: October 30, 2007, 09:08:09 AM »
When i downloaded the game at my high school i tried to open up DP. It opens but when i try to look at the serverlist there is no servers.
And yes, i tried to refresh and update the list

Any ideas?

Most schools/companies with competant IT staff have disabled access to most online gaming on their networks.  Has anyone else gotten PB2 to work at your school, or any other games like Half-Life or Counter-strike for that matter?

* KnacK now realizes that he is not a competant IT guy since he can play DP @ his office.....

OT:

I'm hoping that the next release of firmware for my firewall will allow pass-though AD authentication so that I can group users and web access privileges.  Until then, alot of sites are still off limits to me if I'm too lazy to make exceptions to the firewall rules.

Sounds like no bluecoat.
