Dedicated Server "Heartbeat"

[Troll2k]

Does the Clod server have a "heartbeat" that it broadcasts?

In the old days the IL2 dedicated server had a "heartbeat".I would host the server on Hyperlobby.It would broadcast it out on the internet and all the game browser services(All Seeing Eye,Game Spy Arcade,Xfire and a couple of other I forgot) would pick it up and list it in their service.People using these services could join the game.This would skew the people in the game number that shows in Hyperlobby.It would show there was room but when people tried to join it said full because of the uncounted people that joined from other services.There was a way around it but I have forgotten how.I think it involved the hosts file.

Anyway I was wondering because I host a "dedicated" Clod sever on Hyperlobby and it shows up in the Clod ingame browser also.
