It depends on what he means by "shared". Since he's speaking about hosting services I assume he means multiple server owner/operators on shared resources (hosts). This probably means a single management interface with multiple hosts on the back end and at least semi-automated service provisioning.

Wrench isn't for that kind of thing, though it's public domain and you are free to use it as an example for how to do some simple things like new installs, starts, stops, automatic updates, crash recovery/watchdogging, etc. It doesn't do any kind of configuration though (server.cfg).

wrench is a command line tool, and in a service hosting environment, I imagine you would not want to give your customers shell access, or even console access since once you have console and the right mod plugin you could execute a shell. Wrench is for when you own the host via hardware or VPS and want to run one or more srcds games on it. It does not have a pointy clicky web UI, nor does it handle multiple hosts.

Google for "srcds web control panel". There are definitely some commercial options out there, and some open source stuff too.

Not sure what you mean by "shared".  But, as far as automated deployments
go, assuming its a Linux-based server it is probably not hard to script
with bash.

Do any of you use any software for deploying shared HLDS servers
on-demand? I'm curious whether server rental companies write their
deployment tools from scratch or if there are packages out there for this
purpose.

Im working on something and would like to avoid reinventing that portion
of the wheel.
