That does not work

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cs_server_cs1# ls -al steam
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 15 2005-07-08 14:07 steam -> /usr/sbin/steam*

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cs_server_cs1# ./steam -command update -game
cstrike -dir . -verify_all

Updating Installation
Unable to load test module "test1.so"
"steam" must be run from the directory it is installed in.
You can ensure this by running: "./steam" from its installation directory.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cs_server_cs1# cd /usr/sbin
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/sbin# ./steam -command update -game cstrike
-dir /cs_server_cs1 -verify_all
no problem

Symlinking should work fine still, just symlink to your server directory
and run "./steam".

I do that, but when you have 4+ servers on a box it was more easy just
to symlink the binary in to the directory. Guess I have to change this
for all our installations now.

Enforcing you run it from the installation directory solves updating
problems with people running old versions without knowing. In general
you should run steam from your main hlds directory.

Why did valve remove the support for running the steambinary out of
it installation folder?

I actually have to run it as ./steam in /usr/sbin now where it's
installed. This breaks the automatic update feature when a server
is restarted.

We have released an update to the Half-Life 1 Engine. If you run
any mod that uses the Half-Life 1 Engine you should get this
update. To get the update run the hldsupdatetool.

This update fixes the "-sport" parameter and makes Steam use the
same IP as your server (for multi-homed machines).

This update also increases the minimum OS requirements for Linux
users to GLIBC 2.3.2 (to match the current requirement for the
Source Engine). The hldsupdatetool will verify your OS version and
tell you if there is a problem.

For more details on the release go here:
