Hey,
I have a CS:S home server. I did a fast download server using Dropbox, but it doesn't work. I did exactly what I had to according to many guides on the web (including ones from this forum).
In my public folder in Dropbox I created a folder called "cstrike" and uploaded my .bz2 map file to a "maps" folder over there (I did try the regular .bsp file also - that doesn't work either).
in my server.cfg I have this:
This is my real Dropbox, so you can see it is working. This is the map I was testing:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/87420477/cstrike/maps/surf_greatriver2_1_nsk.bsp.bz2
As you can see, you can download the file and everything works great.
The problem is - people that log into my server don't download the map from Dropbox... they are downloading the full-sized map from my computer (the gameserver using srcds). I tried disabling sv_allowupload and sv_allowdownload, but if I do so - you just get the message you are missing the map file (not downloading at all...). I also tried using another downloading server instead of Dropbox (a free FTP webserver), but still - no success
I don't know if it helps - but I've just installed my server, adding only metamod and mani-admin-plugin.
I don't know what I am doing wrong...
Thanks in advance!
