a friend of mine noticed, that a nexuiz server cannot be found in the nexuiz server browser if the server was bound to an ip by the -ip command line parameter.
i checked this and also noticed, that the parameter -ip makes the nexuiz server segfault on amd64.
i didn't take any further steps to debug this behaviour, perhaps it's an already known bug?

The networking never sends the IP address directly, so use of -ip has no effect on networking except which socket address is bound (to select a network card)...
So I really can't imagine how this would prevent it from showing up on the server browser unless it is failing to bind that address (in which case no networking would work, and consequently no one could manually connect to it).
Regarding a segfault on amd64, that's interesting, could you run in gdb or ddd (graphical gdb frontend that isn't a pain to use) or the emacs gdb frontend if you prefer, and tell me or div0 what place it crashes?
