Ubuntu server and Source Dedicated

[KristofferAndreas]

Hi!

first: sorry for my bad english! and im not good explaning...

I and one off my friends have these hobby of hosting CS:S servers...
today we run to Counter - Strike Source servers on a windows 2k3 computer...
but we thought off changeing to ubuntu server... cause it dosent have a gui interface and thats more stable and dont need that kind off power...

sorry for tell u all this crap:P

what i really wondered about is... when i run multiple servers... they all need a commandline each...... can someone exsplane how i can do that? so i can run more than one... im also thinking off installing a WebUI to controll easy from many places... ive found hldStart, is this a good one? or can u recomend me a better one?
And... is this hard to insall? i have some exp about this... so i hope it isnt that hard...

and im gonna install torrent flux... is that hard to install?


thanx for every answere...!!!

I've installed both torrentflux and ran a Counter-Strike Server off my Debian Lenny system, so I might be able to help.

As for torrentflux, it's pretty easy to install if you have LAMP (linux, apache, mysql, PHP). I installed it manually, but it's in the repos so you could just apt-get it. Let me know if you have any problems with it specifically.

I'd also recommend checking out torrentflux-b4rt. In fact, if you can do it run them side-by-side and decide which one you like best.

As for the counter-strike servers, one extremely simply way to run multiple servers is to install each to it's own directory. Start here:
http://www.srcds.com/db/engine.php?subaction=showfull&id=1098643920&archive=
And repeat the process each time to a different directory.

Of course, this ends up much more Hard Drive space, so the best solution would be to check out the forums on srcds.com to see how you can best optimize running multiple servers on the same machine.

EDIT: BTW, don't be impatient and expect an answer when the threads only 7 hours old ;)
