In order for us to start a server and not get the error ************************************************ * Unable to load Steam support library. * * This server will operate in LAN mode only. * ************************************************
I had to install the steam client on the dedicated server..... download and install SDK Start the server using our control panel while steam is still running on the machine When I logged of my steam account on the dedicated server to play on my client machine...... and restarted the server up came that same error So in order to get it working we had to create a dummy steam account and make sure the steam app is running so clients can start their server...... Is anyone else having this problem? Or is there a fix on the way? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Daniel Worley Sent: Tuesday, April 21, 2009 7:58 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Upcoming Left 4 Dead Server Changes Unless it's been changed, it should be right.
