[CS: Source] RCON Commands

Rcon stands for "Remote Control". Rcon gives total control over your server. It is a very powerful tool, so we suggest only giving the rcon password to those people that you completely trust. To use Rcon, login by typing the following command, replacing "yourpassword" with the Rcon password on your server.

rcon_password yourpassword

Remember - You must type rcon in front of any rcon command you are using!

For example:
rcon say hello world
