          To host a dedicated server you need to own the game on Steam
          Owning it on another platform doesn't work

            Resxt Thanks for confirming.

            I understand that the Steam version ran out of CD keys and anyone who tries to make an account after WaW ran out of them, cannot play any form of multiplayer.

            So I guess the CD key version still talks back to the Activision Master server still, whereas Plutonium uses its own back-end?

            If there is any more doco online on how this works, that would be great I am just more curious as to how the mechanism works.

              Pluto has it's own servers and infrastructure, it doesn't rely on Activision's at all.
