I've also just come across a strange one...

My setup is as follows:
username: tf2server
home: /home/tf2server

Everything is installed under ~/hlds/

I have created ~/hlds/server-1/ and ~/hlds/server-2/

I have loaded everything from steam for TF2 in ~/hlds/common/.

I went through and symlinked (ln -s) content from ~/hlds/common/blah to ~/hlds/server-1/blah and only linked server.cfg to ~/server-1.cfg and ~/server-2.cfg in the respective directories.

The game seems to run fine, however it seems that the motd doesn't show anymore (or fails randomly) when people connect.

I have the following links:
$ find . | grep motd.txt
./hlds/server-2/orangebox/tf/motd.txt
./hlds/server-1/orangebox/tf/motd.txt

These are symlinks to ~/motd-1.txt and ~/motd-2.txt.

motd-1.txt & motd-2.txt contain a single line:
$ cat motd-1.txt
http://gaming.crc.id.au/motd/motd.html
$

I have taken a peek at the apache server logs for this, and the client does pull down at least the html - even when it doesn't display...

When I load this into a web browser, it seems fine. The TF2 game however randomly shows a blank gray square.

Any ideas? o_O
