Installed SRCDS to a Dedicated Server...

[DarkZealot89]

Ok Finally made the jump from my machine to a rebuilt Win 2000 Server.

I have both the SRCDS.exe file and srcdsfpsboost.exe installed as system services, so incase of failure, crash, or system reboot the server will comeback online without admin logon.

So do you guys have any tips for the server? I have basic knowledge of Win 2000 Server platform and it seems the server is running very stable.

Please bring some of your buddies and test it out for playing on...

@ Christy

No I am not a linux guy much, I am trying to learn it. Mainly the reason it is on a Win 2000 Platform is... I have it. Also I didnt have to go and find differnt distros for my plugins.

@ buIIet

I am not to sure what your post was going for? Perhaps it was for another thread?

lol bullit just wants you to cram so many mods on your server that it makes it unstable, hogs bandwidth and system resources

So ur Suggesting we run plain Servers now ?? O_o

[skeletor]

no im not suggesting plain servers, just "having soo many plugins you lose count" is pointless, lol. its like you kill somone with a headshot and 5 different things are like "omg headshot!" lol. but the more plugins the more likely you will leak cpu, and memory, and have the server crash, and just the more likly it won't run smooth. so keep plugins simple. only run what you need. and plus it makes it easier when valve has an update that crashes all the plugins your not scrambling to 20 different sites trying to find them all again updated, lol.

I finally got a chance to check out server the other night.
bot+AWP=**DEAD** Jon......lol
I was only on for a few, but ran good, although I had a higher ping that I am used to around 180 I think, but I am in California.
