Um, how does the server detect if a client has disconnected?
The client could send a message when it chooses to disconnect or shutdown but, what if the internet just crashes?
The Server must find out eventually if a client is no longer online, but how do I access that info?

You will get a StatusChanged message when a remote peer disconnected (due to timeout for example)

Ah, ok, and I find out which connection it was that disconnected using inMsg.SenderConnection.
Thanks.

Where does the message come from? If the client is drops, he can't send it, right? I am about to attempt to solve this problem as well, because I don't want my master server to try and match disconnected people from the matchmaking queue.

The library generates this message itself when it detects that a remote peer has timed out. You can control this time in NetPeerConfiguration.ConnectionTimeout
