What it does

With lag compensation, the server checks hits against where targets were on the shooter's screen, so players with normal ping can aim straight at enemies. Turning it off forces everyone to lead their shots by their ping. Players can also opt out on their side with cl_lc 0. Keep it on.

Run it on your server

On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to cstrike/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS 1.6 server first.
