I want to use a common banned.cfg and listip.cfg across two physically
seperate DoD and TFC servers, the general principle being if a player is
a jerk in one place he's most probably a universal jerk. I suspect
mounting the directory of one on the other and doing a soft link, ala

ln -s /mnt/otherserver/tfc/banned.txt
/usr/local/games/hlds_l/dod/banned.txt

may not work as Server A may 'write' to the banned.cfg but Server B may
not 'read' from the file, keeping its banned.cfg in memory and only
writing to the physically shared banned.cfg when necessary, overwriting
what Server A has put in banned.cfg. Am I thinking right? If not, will
this work? If so, is there another method?

Thanks!

Did you think of using an adminplugin with sql-support?
amx with amxBans is the most popular one, but there should be several
others that serve your purpose.
The big advantage is that bans are shared in realtime and unbans are
aswell (simply merging the 2 files would required you to remove an ID
from both of the lists if you want to completely remove a ban).
