I'm just firing from the hip here, but couldn't you just build a

The problem with that way is that the banfile will be
inconsistance. It
will not work properly
Scenario:
You ban someone on server1

server1 will write all bans from memory to banned_user.cfg
(banned.cfg on
hlds)
until server2 changes map it will not know about the ban.

what server1 just have banned.
I have written a script to work around it.
(This is a summary of the script that does the global ban thing. The
actual script is a little more complex than this)
snip
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
DIRS="css1 css2 css3 css4"
OUTPUTFILE=pvp_banned.cfg
cd /games/common
# Go through all the dirs
for i in $DIRS
do
cat /games/${i}/cstrike/cfg/banned_user.cfg >> /tmp/tempbans
done
# sort out a make the entries unique
cat /tmp/tempbans | sed 's/^M//g' | sort -u > /games/common/
$OUTPUTFILE
# remove the tempfile
rm /tmp/tempbans
snap
in each instance of the directory you have a link to the
pvp_banned.cfg
cd /games/css1/cstrike/cfg
ln -s /games/common/pvp_banned.cfg
in the bottom of server.cfg I have:
exec pvp_banned.cfg
writeid
This will work, but you need to be careful when you unban. If its
not done
properly the ban can reapear again.

Re: [hlds_linux] Specify ban file
A lot of people have several installations on the same computer and
would like to seperate the gametypes.txt, maplists, config files, ban
files, motd, addons, etc. Would it be possible to add a command line
argument to the actual command line to specify a "user" directory, to
simplify things. Of course, I'm over-simplifying things here, but I'm
thinking an option like -configdir "/home/username/config" and
-addonsdir "/home/username/addons" would be nice. Perhaps even another
one for the maps directory, since some users may have conflicting
versions of maps. Just a thought. I wouldn't really use this feature,
but it'd save people a lot of hassle and probably save quite a bit of
bandwidth only updating the servers once (or at least the main
parts--maps and such would still need to be updated with each user's
directory).

Re: [hlds_linux] Specify ban file
Heh... you could always make the file a FIFO that talks to a daemon.
Just an idea. :)

Well, in the meantime you can always use a symbolic link.
The problem with that way is that the banfile will be
