I do that too. Cause otherwise I have to have a crapload of steam accts. Steam wont let you use the same acct more than once or one of em craps out. I dont like getting surprises dropped on me when steam comes out and F*'s everything up.
Also - autoupdate allows your users to use 'rcon quit' to restart their servers. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Marcelo Bezerra Sent: Friday, March 05, 2004 7:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Failed to connect to any GeneralDirectoryServer So you update manualy but uses -autoupdate? what is the point? Steam tries to download a new version because version information probably is stored in ~/.steam/ClientRegistry.blob Just remove the -autoupdate if you are updating with .tgzs :) On Thu, 2004-03-04 at 07:53 -0800, Rock wrote: > -- > [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] > I did DL and use the tar update a few times but when steam checked the ver it always saw it as ver 7 trying to upgrade to 8 anyway. Then error as usual. All of my server use the -autoupdate parameter and would either bail out just trying to verify it was up to date or indefinitly hang trying which would timeout a perfectly updated game untill I manually killed the update process or took the auto off the start script. Which I really hated doing to all my servers jsut to go back and put it back in when the system started acting normal again.

I've been trying to manually update all day and I have about 7 ssh windows open now getting that one for the last while. What a pain. I have about 15 more server to do also.
