In your opinion which is easier for managing dedicated game servers using the half-life engine and the counter-strike mod. Information on setting up linux servers would also be helpful. Thanks in advance.

ofcourse, i found linux servers very easy to manage, specially with those control panel available now days.

I Haven't tried ensim control panel for windows servers which might be making administration alot easier.

Thank you guys. Well it looks like linux is the best choice for the moment. I'll take a look at the ensim control panel someday.
