Right, this is my first proper time on linux, I'm using a VNC to conenct to my server, I have followed you're Linux installation tutorial to the best I can, I've run SRCDS's on windows many many times, but I'm wanting to move to linux for a few reasons...

My problem is that I cannot get screen to work, I have done the following:

Quote:We will make a script that will run the srcds in the background in a "screen"
you will need to have screen installed for this. make a file called server.sh and put this in:
Command(s):

#!/bin/sh
echo "Starting Cs:Source Server"
sleep 1
screen -A -m -d -S css-server ./srcds_run -console -game cstrike +map de_dust +maxplayers 16 -autoupdate

Save the file, and chmod it to run
Command(s):
chmod +x server.sh

If you want to start your server, simply run server.sh . It will start your srcd server in the background, to open it type:
Command(s):
screen -x css-server

If you want to close it again press ctrl+a+d, and it will detach the screen and keep it running in the background.

I can make the server.sh fine, I can run that and my sever runs fine, I have just installed screen, and I can try in terminal "screen -x css-server" and it does not load the server, it does nothing, i get the following message: " There is no screen to be attached matching css-server."

I would really appreciate some help, thanks in advance,

Christy

EDIT: I am in the right directory, (the same as my srcds_run and server.sh, in terminal)

2nd Edit: Well after 3 Hours I fixed it huzard-sleep.

Christy,
PLEASE tell me how you did this!!! I'm frustrated as hell!!!! A few questions for you.

(1) Where did you find "screen"?

(2) After you downloaded screen, how did you install it?

(3) Where you able to run and access the server?
