I haven't had any cause to do anything with "SteamCMD" prior to now. Since allegedly HL1 and Counter-Strike (1.6-ish) are being switched-over to it SteamCMD tomorrow, I gave it a shot this evening. When tried to run on hosted CentOS 5.x (32-bit) dedicated server for the first time, the result was, eh .... "distressing" to say the least (see below). So much for my very popular HL1 server as of tomorrow???

Are you running low on disk space? Continuing...

Please contact technical support. Press enter to continue: [not-root]$ [/code] Thought it might be a permissions issue, so I re-applied (all executable, etc.) - no luck. I'd get my paddle out, but apparently I am up the creek without one? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Original message this is in reply-to below ... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: [hlds_announce] Mandatory Counter-Strike 1.6 and Half-Life 1 deathmatch update coming From: Alfred Reynolds <[email protected]> Date: Wed, 2013/02/13 05:03 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list , Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list , "'[email protected]'" We're working on a mandatory update for Counter-Strike 1.6 and Half-Life 1 deathmatch.
