Setting up a Garry's Mod server

Post by kmancoke1298 »

Hello everyone,

So recently I had an idea to get a Garry's mod server on a VDS/VPS but the only problem was that I didn't know how. I did a lot of research to find the best hosts and NFOServer was the one. My question is does anyone have a tutorial on how to setup a Garry's mod server on a VDS/VPS?

It should be similar to http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =67&t=4107 but with a different appid for Garrysmod (and different executable, and slightly different command-line options, and other things).

Have you run a managed Garrysmod server before? If not, that might be a good place to start, as with a managed server, someone else (us!) handles the installation and updates for you, and gives you a control panel with built-in support for everything you need to get going (synced webhosting for fast downloads, SVN support, FTP support, the ability to easily stop/start the server, and so on).
