What does your command line look like? Also are you hosting and playing on the same computer?

When you are running the server from the .bat file, the command line is what the .bat reads.

Well, you need to follow a guide.. There's plenty around.
Also, what game are you trying to get it up for, and are you buying a server, or hosting a home-based server?
Also, if it's a home-based server, is it a separate PC, or the same one?

Look, you really need to follow a guide like on this website, just goto srcds.com. Almost all of your questions can be answered by following a simple guide. Now for the mani-admin plugin, follow another guide which can EASILY be found on the mani admin plugin website. Now when you follow BOTH guides to the BEST of your ability, THEN post questions.

sourcefun21, ALL this information can be found in a Mani guide and an install guild.
The port allocation error is also in the FAQs.
