NPCs in a (dedicated) server?

I'm trying to spawn NPCs in a multiplayer game basically. Or, play single player maps with NPCs in them, on multiplayer.

I have a few computers over a LAN and want to be able to spawn NPCs at will. Note I don't mean bots... So is this possible?
I thought enabling cheats on a dedicated server and spawning would work, but I cant even test that theory since for some reason sv_cheats is ALWAYS off no matter what I do.

ideas? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Yeah, they didn't build npc spawn <npc> into MP because they thought, "Oh, we already have bots..."
