Problem with people connecting to my server

When I host a zombie server, and someone tries to join, the server lags out. For example, If I am shooting while that person is trying to connect, it lags and I keep shooting. The zombies keep moving in the direction they were moving when that person was connecting. Then, I can't do anything but restart the server. I've tried turning my firewall of many times, but it doesn't work. Sometimes my player skin turns into a "black soldat", and lags. It's rare for at least 2 people to join my server, but most of the time when they try to connect my server lags away.

Does anyone else have this problem?

What's your connection speed?
CPU, RAM and graphics card?
How many bots did you add?

I have 30 bots in my server, i put T1 as connection in my Soldat Setup (I have Road Runner cable). My graphics card is Geforce 2 pro, and 512MB of RAM. And I have AMD Athlon cpu

30 bots eh.. that might be a wee bit much for your connection to handle. Try starting without any, let a player join, add a bot, have him leave and rejoin, add a bot, etc. until your server lags.

Ok I'll try that then. Hope it works.

Thanks for the help.
