ioquake3-server setup

Hi –

Anyone try or have any luck setting up a dedicated ioquake3 server? (Yeah… I still play quake like it came out last week).

I have everything (seemingly) installed correctly on Deb6 but launching the server hangs at binding ip/port:

----- FS_Startup -----
Current search path:
/root/.q3a/baseq3
./baseq3/pak8.pk3 (9 files)
...
./baseq3/pak0.pk3 (3539 files)
./baseq3

----------------------
4073 files in pk3 files
execing default.cfg
execing q3config_server.cfg
couldn't exec autoexec.cfg
Hunk_Clear: reset the hunk ok
--- Common Initialization Complete ---
IP: 127.0.0.1
IP: x.x.x.x
IP6: ::1
IP6: 2600:3c02::f03c:91ff:fe70:69b7
IP6: fe80::f03c:91ff:fe70:69b7%eth0
Opening IP socket: x.x.x.x:27960

^^ That's where it hangs…

I'm launching it with: ./ioq3ded.i386 +set dedicated 1 +set netip x.x.x.x +set netport 27960 +exec server.ffa.cfg

Shrugs… I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling, changing the port, etc. Nothing listening in netstat.

EDIT: I should note that I (temporarily) removed IPTables for the time being thinking it was a firewall issue.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks

For those of you following along at home, a reboot seems to have corrected this.
