[/code]I've found countless out of date walkthroughs for CS and CS:S, found the how-to here in these forums for DOD:S specifically, but am needing a bit more clarity. Here's the situation: I've been handed a free server (dual xeon 2.4 with 4gb of ram in a local datacenter/ CentOS 5) and having really nothing else to do with it, I've decided to run a DOD:S server because of love playing. So far I have both CS:S and DOD:S installed, but I'm going to stick with DOD:S for now. I know linux, but know nothing about Steams cfgs and setup. I have now managed to get the dedicated server install and updated with little to no trouble, but the config is where I'm running into issues. My initial questions are: Do I need to place anything in the game and start.cfgs? And also, are any of the errors in my below postings to be concerned about? Thanks for your help

Start.cfg
The game.cfg was found on another site, and the start.cfg...well I'm not sure where that came from...autogenerated? Are either of these necessary to run a server? Thanks for any and all help guys.
