How to set a password on a CS:S server
Type sv_password "scrim123" in the server console so players must enter scrim123 to join. sv_password "" removes it.
sv_password
Sets a password players must enter to join the server.
sv_password "<password>" Examples
sv_password "scrim123" Lock the server for a scrim.
sv_password "" Remove the password.
Arguments
passwordRequired- The join password. Empty to remove it.
On SLASHPLAY
SLASHPLAY manages this one: set the join password with Join password on the server's General tab. A value set in the console or a cfg overrides the dashboard and the copied connect line stops working.
What it does
Leave it empty for a public server. Players connect with password set in their console or through the browser prompt. Useful for private matches and scrims.

Good to know
- Changing it does not kick players who are already connected.
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/cfg/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS:S server first.
