[ Converted text/html to text/plain ] cheers guys for the help. Seeing as i didn't get a reply as quickly as i would have liked (hey i'm not known for my patience ;-) ) i did some resaerch on screen on good ol' google and come up with the same command line. Screen for me is a necessity for me as when we get our hardware in (atm this is all leaning and practise) we plan on running as many servers as possible (my numbers say 8 but we'll see) on a dual core processor. cheers for the help tho and you'll find i'll be asking for more help soon.

I've been doing some reading on screen as i know some of you guys use it. But there is one concept i don't understand. how do i get screen to capture the running tty session in a bash script? You do not capture a running session, you start a virtual terminal, that you can deattach and reattach at will. if you want to start from deattached from a bash script try "man screen" as there is a switch to do just that but I cant remember it right now. LP Killer_X I think everyone is too busy screaming at valve at the moment to help you. :-) Anyway -- while I don't personally bother with screen, you shouldn't really need to capture the TTY session. Your hlds or srcds logs will contain all the info you need in the appropriate logs/ directory.
