For those who were asking about setting up a dedicated server.... The installation is pretty much the same as installing a normal counter-strike: source server.
Server Installation
----------------------
1) Download HldsUpdateTool.exe - Here (http://www.cstrike-planet.com/files?dl=11)
2) Install HldsUpdateTool (I used the default C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\)
3) Open command prompt
4) Type cd C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\
*if you installed HldsUpdateTool to another directory, change the previous line to match your directory
5) Type HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game "cssbeta" -dir .
*make sure you include the space and period following -dir
6) The tool will then download/install all the server files for Counter-Strike: Source Beta
7) Go to "YOUR INSTALLATION DIRECTORY\HLServer\orangebox\" and create a shortcut from "srcds.exe"
8) Right-click the shortcut -> properties -> target line
In this target line, paste the following AFTER "...\HLServer\orangebox\srcds.exe":
-console -game cstrike_beta +map de_dust2 +maxplayers 10 -tickrate 100 +fps_max 600
You can modify some values to your liking such as map, maxplayers, tickrate, and server fps. Note
fps_max 600 runs your server at 500 fps. When running your server, you may notice the console FPS may be capped
at a value lower than 500 - for me it was capped at 100. To fix this, download this FPS fix and run it
alongside your server.

9) Double-click the shortcut to run your server!
Remember to open your ports if you're trying to run the server from behind a router. This game also uses port
27015 like regular Counter-Strike: Source.
Server Configuration
-----------------------
Copy/Paste the following into a notepad and save it as server.cfg. Make sure you dont save it as "server.cfg.txt"
Move "server.cfg" into the directory the config folder located in
"YOUR INSTALLATION DIRECTORY\HLServer\orangebox\cstrike_beta\cfg\"
Change any following values to suit your needs.
hostname "Server Name"
rcon_password "Rcon Password"
