It looks like I am having a similar problem. hldsupdate stops with the following error:
Verifying: D:\CS_S_Server\reslists\counter-strike source shared content\exclude.lst Failed to create directory D:\CS_S_Server\reslists\counter-strike: source, Win32 Error 267 "The directory name is invalid."
when I created the server dir I just ran hldsupdatetool.exe populate it. I didn't notice an error when it completed the first time.
But there were no executables in the directory, thought that I did something wrong, but I don't think so now. It doesn't look like a network error, its like the update is trying to create an invalid dir [ you can't use : in a dir name] So it never completes.
any help is appreciated
