Its supposed to be a .cfg file not a .cgf file

EDIT: If you have time, you should meet me ingame right now to sort this out

Looks to me like your network is kind of glitchy. The <waiting for real players> thing happens because the login packet from a client is received by the server, but no followup player creation packet; this could be because either some further data from the clients is blocked/dropped, or because the data the server sends to the clients is blocked/dropped/misdirected. I'd guess it's the latter, as that would explain why the server sometimes is not on the master list.

If you have a router or anything but a modem sitting between your server and the internet, you need to set up port forwarding. It won't work consistently without. Most of the time, it won't work at all without, but some routers have odd policies.
