Create server problem, please help

Lately, i have been unable to create a server without having to reinstall ESF i would try to make a server and it would say a the bottom: somthing like "adding master server >server ip<. it would say that 3 times with slightly different ips then after a while it would say "Failed connecting after 4 retries. then it would say "invalid Authenication Message. after that it would take me back to the server screen Does anyone know how i fix this without reinstalling ESF?

Hmmm...did you steal some1's cd-key?(you might want to move this to the 'Help' section)

no i didn't,Doesn't do that for any other mods of mine And how do i move my threads?

I've had that problem before butit fixed itself, i think it has to do with WON Servers, whenever they are down it does that.

taht's what i thought at first. but would it really stop just becausei reinstall my game? that wouldn't make too much sense

Try it again and make sure you download everything necessary for halflife and esf in this order:

1. Reinstall Half-life
2. Download the update to the most recent
3. D-load ESF 1.1 Full

See if that would work.

nope,didn't work i dunno what to do.

ok, ok......try d-loading them from different mirrors. It could be that the file is corrupted or somethin
