Help for a nublet

[faultyjay311]

Ok, I followed the Tutorial to a T,
Have the srcds_1 dir with everything dloaded i think. I did the steam -update and waited about 30minutes for it to finish. I think I am missing something though, cause I dont have srcds_run in my directory at all. I do however have the hlds_run and im only in testing phase anyway so that will suffice for now.

Heres what im doing
./hlds_run -console +map datacore.bsp
When I add +game cstrike or hl2mp it says invalid game.
The server starts but I do get error
scandir failed:/home/myname/srcds_1/./platform/SAVE
then it connects to security module and reports security module is loaded, server in secure mode.
Shortly after I get the same
scandir failed:/home/myname/srcds_1/./platform/SAVE
message but then gives me
Auth Server IP
and 2 Master Server IPs

Now I have tried connecting to the game with no luck. I tried using the Auth IP and Ive tried using my internal IP for my network.

These are pretty bad questions I know, but if noone can help, is there any better tutorials out there?

To get source on your server you need to remove ~/.steam first, then in srcd_l run ./steam with -command update -game "counter-strike source"

as far as setting up a server, the SAVE errors can be ignored. and you must use your internal ip

Code:

+ip 192.168.0.1

or whatever it is, then connect using your internal ip.

Because you have all the correct ports forwarded.
