Then something is off with my server.cfg/bgserver.cfg file. Either that or the person that's hosting is using GameServers for dedicated server. To be clear, I don't wish to pay for a service to host my dedicated server. I want to do it for free.What I need to know is do I need to add/configure these settings for my bgserver.cfg?

You have to order a server. Sources listed below:a) How to setup a dedicated Call of Duty Black Ops Server? - Arqadeb) Call of Duty: Black Ops - Dedicated ServersSo can anyone just confirm that? I guess this explains why even for BO2, I haven't heard of a dedicated server support as well. But I've heard some things about the Plutonium client but don't use it as I mainly use Redacted.
