Game Server 24.7

Posted on August 5, 2013

Hi, I’m running a Counter-Strike: Source gameserver but when I close the putty client, the server just shuts down , sometimes when i close it doesn’t shut down which is weird, so all goes well, ubt whenever the server gets no activity for lets say, 30 minutes , i just shuts down, how can I keep my CS:s server up 24/7? Is there something I need to add to the command line to keep it up 24/7? Here’s my current command line:

./srcds_run -game cstrike +port 27015 +maxplayers 16 +map de_dust2 -secure

Hi … <br>Type: screen -r

Thanks, the server is running, but hopefully it doesn’t crash when inactive like usual, I’ll see how it goes.

Sorry for triple post, I have another question, how do I access the console in my SSH while the server is running?
