I have built up a v1.2 Linux server at home that is behind a router firewall.

I can see the server in the in-game browser & it indicates the router IP address. Whe I try to connect I get this message:

"Awaiting CD key authorization"

and it hangs until I press "Escape".

I can join other servers - is there a new port that needs to be open for the new CD key authorization?

OK - I found the solution:

I had started the server with "+set net_lanauthorize 1" which was what I used for v1.1.

Deleting that section fixed it...

Apparently this is different for v1.2...

net_lanauthorize forces it to always authorize everyone who connects. You never want this.
