OK, I created my account, and ran my ./steam -update line: ./steam -update cstrike /home/server/hlds3/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] p4ssw0rd Y
/hlds3/ folder had an existing 3110 install. the first time, i received this: Checking Bootstrapper Version.... Updating installation CMultiFieldBlob(pSerialized): Null pSerialized I had no idea what that meant, I searched today's posts for it but didn't find anything. I remembered something about a blob file, and someone saying delete it. So, I just deleted everything (even dirs) inside of my hlds3 folder, so that Steam would think it is a brand new install. Then I run my steam update line again. Now, all I get is: Checking Bootstrapper Version... forever...like i waited 25 minutes, and nothing happened. This box is on an OC-x (dont remember exactly) pipe, so I dont think it is timing out due to bandwidth... even so, wouldn't I get 'Updating installation' if it was? I went into #steam on gamesnet to get some help, but, I was discouraged to see that Nathan Dodd is one of the OPs/Helpers (as an indication of the expertise level; no offense to anyone else helping in there), so I figured I am not going to get the answers I need in there. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
