I'll always do my best to help with whatever I can here. If it makes sense to create a new guide for something, I'll do that too .

Well, I have been looking at shell scripts. I found this on srcds

http://forums.srcds.com/viewtopic/5835

starts updates restarts and all that jazz when server boots. Maybe be something to look further into and refine? I am a n00b at that stuff

does this script auto execute after restart? i've been needing one but just havent taken the time to do it, seeing as the server rarely gets restarted.

Yes it does.

You can also set it to start on reboot from the software-how-to section. Its under "How to run a linux CS 1.6 Server"

You could always just add the following to your boot config:

cd /hlds

./hlds_run -game cstrike +map de_dust2 +maxplayers 32 +ip 12.34.56 +port 27015 -autoupdate

It will auto update on boot, plus start the server on server reboot. It's what I do, and it works great.
