Well i am no isp, so I don’t have to keep that in mind. Also we use updater.smx which removes any symbolic links if a new update is out on the plugins. Looks nice the gui Ulrich, might come in handy for less scriptfull people.
Only thing that was left, was there now an option to tell server owners which custom content it is allowed to load? I think not right? -----Original Message----- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Ulrich Block Sent: donderdag 18 april 2013 9:45 To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Symlinked Server Setup I am also using a symlink setup. My system has a masteruser which owns the masterfiles/server. This user is within the same group as the users that own the actual gameservers. Linking serverplugins decreases the needed adminsitration. Update mms/sm once and all your servers can make use of updated binaries. When I install a server or serverplugin like mms/sm I work in two passes. 1. pass is to copy files from master a user needs to edit (incomplete extension list und wrote down from my memory): cd masterfolder/ find -type f -name "*.cfg" -o -name "*.ini" -o -name "*.smx" | while read file; do if [ ! -d targetserver/`basename $file` ]; then mkdir -p targetserver/`basename $file`; fi cp $file targetserver/$file done 2. pass symlinks the rest recusive. Previously copied files won´t get overwritten: cp -sr /absolutepath/to/masterserver/* /absolutepath/to/targetserver/ If you only have a few servers and do not mind using an interface, you might be interested in easy-wi.com. It makes use of symlinks and has a free version.
