== Making a folder for the server ==

You will need to make a folder somewhere that the server files will be installed (If you have done this, skip this part)

The most common or best place to put most of your files on a server is in the /home folder

Change Directory to /home

<pre>cd /home</pre>

Now make a folder e.g. CS_Server Note to change the "CS_Server" to the servers name or folder name

<pre>mkdir CS_Server</pre>

Now go into that folder

<pre>cd CS_Server</pre>

Now you have a new / clean folder you can being to download & install the files for the server.


== Installing HLDS + Steam ==

First you will need to download HLDS (Half Life Dedicated Server)

<pre>wget http://www.steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.bin</pre>

After downloading you will need to change the file into an executable file, so you can run it

<pre>chmod +x hldsupdatetool.bin && ./hldsupdatetool.bin</pre>

When you run the file you will have to also type "yes" to agree with Terms & Conditions (You will have to do this a few times during this install)

You may not have to unzip or uncompress the files you just downloaded (Not always needed, but do this anyways as most of the time you do need it

<pre>ln -s /bin/gunzip /bin/uncompress && ./hldsupdatetool.bin</pre>

Again you may have to agree with some T's & C's with answer "yes"

Now you can run hlds again, you may have to agree again with answer "yes"

<pre>./hldsupdatetool.bin</pre>

Now you can run Linux Steam Client

<pre>./steam</pre>

Again you may have to agree with some T's & C's with answer "yes"

Thats it, You have installed HLDS & Steam (It may ask you to run ./steam again just to check its downloaded the latest files
