Hello, Yes, I did copy the server config from my old CS:S directory into this one. Except for the server.cfg and motd.txt files, it is a completely default install. Start-up command line is the same as I was using for CS:S before the update:
./srcds_run -game cstrike +ip 72.237.4.31 -port 27015 +maxplayers 16 +map de_dust +sv_lan 0 -autoupdate -debug I don't think it's a permissions problem because the srcds user owns the install directory (/usr/local/srcds_2) and all of the files and directories under it. I also disabled the iptables firewall on the box temporarily because it was mentioned before that this could be caused by a connectivity problem with Valve's servers, but that did not seem to help.
