What i did was create a file called runhl, and gave it proper permission to exec. in this file put your "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH ... etc etc" and on hte following line put screen -A -m -d -S hlds ./hlds_run -game cstrike +maxplayers 17 +map de_dust changeing the settings to your own. I put this file in my hlds_l dir. but you can put it anywhere thats easy to find as long as u include the right path. This will start it in a screen session so you can open and close your console as u please. That command would be screen -r hlds , and to close the screen use ctrl+a d as far as the admin mod, the readme files are great, and there website helpful. All doc's you need are included in the install. If you still have trouble try their forums. One other thing, do yourself a favor and dont run your HL as root.
