Where to place server.cfg?

Hi Guys

I'm running 1.4 linux server and am now trying to configure a
server.cfgfile. I must be doing something wrong as I cannot get it to
pickup my
server.cfg file. Each time I connect to the server it says "cod4host" as the
hostname and not what I have configured it as.

Here is my directory structure

/home/games/cod4files (all my cod4 files are here)

/home/cod4srv (this is the directory for my user account called cod4srv)

This is the startup script I'm using. (Between the dashes)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cod4srv at srv01:~$ cat start
#Call of Duty 4 Start Script
# ---------------------------

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=":"

# Make sure you have the correct ip and user name set below
# ---------------------------------------------------------

IP=192.168.1.15
USR=cod4srv
INSTALL=/home/games/cod4files/data

# Let's make sure the server is not running
# -----------------------------------------
screen -S $USR -X quit
killall -9 cod4_lnxded

# Now the command line that starts the server
# ------------------------------------------

screen -A -m -d -S $USR $INSTALL/cod4_lnxded \
+set net_ip $IP +set net_port 28960 +set fs_basepath \
$INSTALL +set fs_homepath $USR +set sv_punkbuster 1 \
+set sv_pure 1 +exec server.cfg +map_rotate

echo ""
echo "Cod4-Server running under user $USR has been started"
echo ""


# End of File
#*********************************************************************************************
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



When i start the server using ./start no matter where it seems I put my
server.cfg file it is not picking it up. Where abouts should I be placing
the server.cfg file? I'm looking to run more than 1 server from the base
install so I cannot place it in cod4files/data/main.

Thanks in advance.
George
