Screen - Reattaching problem
 
Code:
screen -A -m -d -S tfc ./hlds_run -game tfc -pingboost 1 -port 27015 +map concmap_r +maxplayers 32 -autoupdate -insecure
Which is working fine. If I now use...

Code:
screen -r tfc
it seems to timeout and I get..

Code:
Suddenly the Dungeon collapses!! - You die...
If I do...

Code:
screen -list
I get...

Code:
There is a screen on:
        20399.tfc      (Dead ???)
Remove dead screens with 'screen -wipe'.
1 Socket in /tmp/uscreens/S-sk.
Ive tried from sitting at the machine and this works fine. Its just over PuTTY its doing it. Ideas?

OK, this is just a guess, but I think you may need to run an x-windows server on whichever computer you're using to access your other computer through PuTTY with. Enable X11 forwarding on your PuTTY session, BEFORE you log in, then start up your x-win server, then go back to your PuTTY session and run that awaken command again. It MAY work. Like I said, it's just a guess.

Surly thats just adding more system resources to the machine? I kinda want as much CPU power as I can get out of the box.

Like I said, it was just a guess. Try out Cygwin, just to SEE if it works. There's some pretty good instructions on their site on how to establish port forwarding through PuTTY.

I don't use putty anymore as I don't have a windows machine but I used to run screen over it with no problems

Out of interest what happens if you don't detach it initially, and in putty you do

screen -d -r tfc

or

screen -x tfc
