It's been a while since I ran Linux, but couldn't you just do: mv ~/.steam/ClientRegistry.blob ~/.steam/ClientRegistry.blob.bak ?

The actual command to be bookmarked should be something more along the lines of: mv /home/<Some User Name>/.steam/ClientRegistry.blob /home/<Some User Name>/.steam/ClientRegistry.blob.bak Just because I don't think most people will be running their srcds servers as root, or be nearly as vigilant as you are. ; ) No offense/insult meant. ~Steve -----Original Message----- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of William Stillwell Sent: Wednesday, June 10, 2009 9:37 AM To: 'Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list' Subject: [hlds_linux] FW: Resolution: steam + update + AssertPreCondition + NonNullFilePath Considering it's a box 20 feet from my desk, running just srcds, and nothing else, If it was a hosted server on a far away server, I wouldn't run it as root. But your answer is, yes, my copy of srcds is run under root, as its just 1 box running just srcds, and has no access to any real networks, and I monitor network usuage daily, along with packet counts. -----Original Message----- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Miano, Steven M.
