Try New Technology Networx

Well I spent almost all of last night (except for a 1 hour Left 4 Dead 2 (Demo) break; and randomly checking in on the Ghost Adventures LIVE!) and parts of today finishing and debugging my newest revision of the HLDS run-level startup script. I have posted it in the Articles & Scripts page.
The script will allow a HLDS Admin to have their servers auto-start on boot, and will also provide them with a service that can be called from the console to start,stop, restart/reload all or only 1 of the servers controlled by the service. This service as stated can control an unlimited number for servers, as long as the 4 arrays are setup correctly in the file. Currently the only known problems with the script are on lines 180 and 199 which cause errours output to the console, but do not seem to affect the function of the gaming servers nor host OS. These lines have been flagged for future debugging, but have no ETC set.
Currently this has only been tested on my CentOS 5.x servers, and is designed to support ONLY the following HLDS Game Types: Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2 (Demo), Team Fortress 2. I am planning to add support for Killing Floor, when I get the time.

I have launched a Self Help section which provides a list of applications and scripts that I have compiled over the years. These applications/scripts are being listed to help people looking for solutions to keep their computers running smoothly and/or to clean off adware, malware, spyware, virus, etc.

For those of you whom have the L4D2 Demo Early Access, for pre-ordering enjoy playing on the current server I have setup for the demo:

l4d2.tntnetworx.net:27015

If you have any problems with the server at all please report them to me right away so I can fix them and/or submit bug reports!

The early access for those that pre-ordered Left 4 Dead 2 has been released on the Xbox 360 and the PC will be coming later today (10-28-2009). I have a demo server online and waiting for the S-MLS group.

Both public and private Left 4 Dead (L4D) servers because live last night!

Everyone is welcome to play on our Public server via l4d.tntnetworx.net:27016. Check out the Custom Map list for all the maps we have installed (adding new ones weekly).
