Hello guys,

I have installed fresh and working CS 1.6 server (finally working).

When i enter this command in terminal:

./hlds_run -console -game cstrike -ip 46.101.137.123 -port 27015 +maxplayers 32 +map de_dust2 &

my server is started and i can play the game .. but when i close terminal then server shuts down.

How to run ./hlds_run in background and on system boot?

Thank you very much!

You should use "screen". For example:

screen ./hlds_run

Press CTRL+A+D for detach screen (leave it, but screen will be working background).
Use "screen -r" for resume to screen (to HLDS console).

About autorun when system starts, I think "/etc/init.d".

And better to make server on which OS, which you know better ;).

You have to set a name for the screen, otherwise it won't work

screen server1 ./hlds_run

But he want's to run it with server boot or restart.
Google knows how to run a program as service, i suggest you to use it.

Ohh, amazing, thank you very much guys, works perfect!
Now i need to found and understand how to run it with server boot/restart

I think /etc/rc.local would tick.
