to clearify, I have 3 different hardware sollutions to choose from.
dual 3.4Ghz Xeon

Hi,
Holy shit - that would be such a huge security problem! Please don't to
that!
Instead another method to find out if an update is released would be
great -
something you can easily do with a shell script (like downloading a
webpage
and "scan" for a message or sth.).

Hello,
I have just spoken to a couple of contact's who run AMD X2 CPU's on
FreeBSD
6 / 7.
From their tests, they said that it should work very nicely and that they
haven't encountered any issues 'as of yet' with them.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Holy shit - that would be such a huge security problem!
Please don't to that!
what security problem. im think we all wont run it under root. also as
long
it is a serverside var and cannot be changed via rcon there wont be a
problem. if valve wants they shall limit this setting to a command line
option.
Instead another method to find out if an update is released
would be great - something you can easily do with a shell
script (like downloading a webpage and "scan" for a message or sth.).
why simple if it works complicated... i still prefer the idea of havin an
option to allow executing a script when a new version arrives. for real
admins there should be no real security issue. (as long valve does not
allow
rcon setting this var and enables locking this var (e.g. as sourcetv or
bots).

Erhm, why? The script gets started by the hlds server with the same
uid/gid. No one else could start it as a client.
Please don't to that!

Well, I hate that kind of method. The hlds server is the one that
already knows about an update in (I think) nearly realtime. So it would
cost extra processor cycles to check a HTML site every 5 minutes or so

And you are one of the people who start crying first when their customers
upload nasty scripts and run them via this absolutely crazy and simple
way.
You can run many evil scripts without root privileges.
