Hey Guys, So to respond to the multiple answers, I have specified a map and it still doesn't work, there IS a space between the +sv_lan and the 1, must have missed the space bar in the email. I have also tried specifying the custom binary (like srcds_amd) and it just won't start if I do that... any other ideas?
Just to note, I have run a HL2mp server on linux before, had no problems at all, but this was on a single core redhat 7.3 pentium box facing the internet. This Lan box is a dual processor opteron facing only a LAN running Suse 9.3. I first copied my intial redhat install to the suse box and had all sorts of problems, seg faults, crashes, etc.. now that has gone all away with the latest updates and it seems to start fine, but nothing.. so that why I started with a fresh directory with only Steam and let it download the whole HL2mp diectories incase something was messed up from the initial copy. So I'm pretty sure my original .sh config file for starting the server should work, but also tried just basic command line start (#>./srcds_run -game hl2mp +sv_lan 1 +map steamlab) At the very least it should give some return on the status command correct?
