<div class="IPBDescription">when the server starts up</div> Right now I am having the worst time getting the server to run. When I get to the part right when it starts up I get a fatal error message that says:
Host Error- Could not get DLL API from /home/gillam/hlds_l/ns/dlls....... But when I looked in that directory it was there.
Please Help!

If it's redhat 8.0 you need to install the compat library called compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.110.i386.rpm to be able to run NS.
You might want to read the Sticky thread on linux ns server in the forum.
Please also try to include the complete error message the next time.
whats that thing compat

Not neccessarily true, although this seems to be a viable option. A softlink to the libstdc I did have worked for me.
(I'm not a guru so my answer might be slightly off, please correct me =))
Linux (just as windows) runs off certain system files and if you compile a software (in this case NS) with ties a specific set of system files you need those system files to run NS. Those system files are not included in RH8.0 by default so you need to install them to provide backward *compatibility*.
Im Lost Help!!!!
I am running 8.0 and I need some help
For a RH system just use;
up2date compat-libstdc++
Does it intall itself or do I have to put it somewhere special and then do a bunch of stuff
NS requires the compat lib (or the softlink), CS does not.

If you use up2date it will take care of everything for you. If you download the RPM manually you will also have to install it manually.
And if you're still stubborn and want to do things yourself you can download it here =)

where do i get the up2date i dont want to do this by myself
I did that and all but what do i do to update it because i am trying to start the server but it wont
Well I run server linux distro flavours. And NS doesn't run on many of them.(gentoo or mandrake for an example) Currently RH is the only distro I've had luck getting NS to run on.(and yes I slack will run it as well) And yes to run it on RH you must update the compatable libstdc libs<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I have a Debian server that has run NS with no problems. All I did was a base install, reboot added ssh, gdb, and an ftp server. Uploaded the HL, NS, and patch files to /usr/local/games/hlds/hlds_l and configured. I have never had an issue running this from day one, nor have I had any crashes that were not due to mine/turret spam. This is the most solid server I have ever seen. And with apt-get it stays up to date and secure. The only thing with Debian is most people are turned off by the lack of a pretty gui. The install is very easy if you are experienced in installing Linux without a gui (i.e RH 6.2 and below). Try it sometime. Nothing like a server using only 25MB ram and about 100 MB of disk space.
Please help me use up2date for the i386 tell me what to do
Otherwise go <a href='http://www.nrh-up2date.org/' target='_blank'>here</a> for help on how to use it.
*Edit*
Specifically go <a href='http://www.nrh-up2date.org/cvs/docs/INSTALL' target='_blank'>here</a> to get it setup and use it
LOL ok i did this
up2date compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.98.110.i386.rpm and it sayd cannot find or already updated
.
ex: cat file.foo | more
this will display the contents of the file, then when the screen is full of text you can press enter for a single line at a time to display or you can hit space for the next page.
cat file.foo | less
works better because you can scroll up and down.

Is that file on the server? Look for it. Otherwise make sure that you type the file correctly
