Where is this server located?  If its at your house, make usre that you have port 27900 open up so that the heart beat can reach the master server.

Download build 19 - it should correct that config file for you.  Delete those other setmasters and use this instead:

setmaster dplogin.com master0.gamespy.com

If you have a router allow port 27910 UDP packets incoming.  Im not sure if 27900 works as well but try both.

Also might want to put in sv_login 2 I believe it is so people have to have a global login account.

It means that if you connect to <your ip>:50002 you will be playing on your server

One last thing-How come it shows up in list then when I clear it, its gone and the console is still open. Other servers stay on the list after it is cleared. And can I play in my own server or do I have to do something first?

Before It's White then  after I clear it and hit update it's gone.

Simple solution don't clear it :Pl although someone should probably figure out a way to fix it I'll see if I can find anything.

Have you typed setmaster dplogin.com in the console?  Also have you read the win32 server guide?

This is yet another reason home servers do not work.... ( with only a few exceptions )
