Oops, was a little quick on the send. As for the server admin, the current beta 1.6 server for linux is also distributed through steam. Unlike the windows client, it doesn't use a cache file for storing the individual files. In short, you download steam, and it will get cstrike for you. There are a few new cvars, a few new performace tweaks, but running the server is essentially the same. And WONID's are substituded by STEAMID's as a new method for unique id.
