This tutorial is about Garry’s Mod

Basic word

In the server.cfg you set all basic settings on the server. That is, (E.g. The hostname, the (optional) password, or the RCON password If you set a “//” before a setting option, the setting is “escorted”. That is, The server does not load what is behind the “//” This is as already said pretty good, in the server.cfg to add comments, so that the commands do not always googling the commands Now follows an example server.cfg which I split into two parts: “Changeable” and “Please do not rumfummeln, otherwise there are problems on the server”

Now just click on your web interface, go to the Config Editor [Extended v2], select “Garrys Mod (server.cfg)” and click on Edit Now you can copy, paste and edit the following example server.cfg to your wishes.
