I took the ferry from Cyprus to Beirut in September 2001, I was fortunate to get the last one at the time because they then stopped it due to a lack of interest after September 11. I imagine it will be running again, although I don't remember any real details.
I do remember it was incredibly difficult to find out about on the web, apart from indications that there is such a route,and I ended up looking for travel agents in Cyprus instead and then calling them to confirm it.
At the time I was the only person with a vehicle (motorbike) on the ferry.
Be prepared to be given the run around by customs in Beirut and a royal fleecing in terms of "taxes" - but don't let that put you off Lebanon, the Lebanese are fantastic people and one of the highlights of my trip
