hi, i am new to this forum . so please bear with my noob question.

when trying to connct to zx server from the console this error msg appears :

"ConVarRef sb_dontshow_maxplayer_warning doesn't point to an existing ConVar
Network: IP 192.168.3.10, mode MP, dedicated No, ports 27015 SV / 27005 CL
Connecting to 114.130.28.26:27017...
Host_Error: Unexepected authentication protocol 27713736!"

any ideas why this is happening?

my CSS is the setti Orangebox non steam version version.

also i am useing qubee internet. when i try to ping 114.130.28.26 from windows on average the latency is 68 to 70 .. so i dont think that is the problem.

also i can open any ports i want. but dont know if that is the problem so didnt try that yet. any ideas if i should open ports? (which ports? TCP or UDP)

thanks for reading. any help is appreciated.
