Apologies if this has been answered before, but I couldn't find the answer after half an hour of looking.

How does one actually enable/use private slots on servers?

On server side:

seta sv_maxclients "32" //max
seta sv_privateclients "2"
seta sv_privatepassword "9U-64dsefA"
//public slots 30 (32-2)

On client side:
Via the console if the server not passworded (g_password is ""):
/connect address:port; password 9U-64dsefA
Or via main menu when the password popup appears and instead of typing the g_password to auth as public client, you type the private one.

Just to be very clear @ent, I should be typing in "/connect 192.168.192.100:29070; password 1234" if I am trying to connect to a private slot on my local server.

Private clients always start from 0 to sv_privateclients-1. If you have such a number - you took a private slot.
As a test, try to connect to a public slot and check your client number.
