Linux content servers

06.18 23:48:59       devicenull   at one point I remember there being a way to force hldsupdatetool to pick a specific content server
06.18 23:49:04       devicenull   does anyone remember what that was?
06.18 23:49:07              ics   its somehow os related issue and happens only with certain system setup.
06.18 23:49:35         msleeper   devicenull: setup a Steam.cfg file in the directory with the steam executable
06.18 23:49:39         msleeper   and put something like this in it
06.18 23:49:47         msleeper   PreferredContentServerIDs = "133 134 139"
06.18 23:49:55         msleeper   it has to be Steam.cfg, captial S, on linux systems
06.18 23:50:07       devicenull   any specific way to get the content server id's?
