Re: [GUIDE] How to host a server on Linux

lol @ catpaw big_smile

the prob is: there is no terminal/console on a windows system (maybe on a server, dunno), so it is not possible to do anything useful big_smile *SCNR*

There is Cygwin ( http://www.cygwin.com/ ), with this windows can start to be even a bit usefull afterall.

Almost, altough there are subtle difference. Wine does not require you to recompile the code for it, cygwin does. Cygwin applications run "almost" as native, they are just linked to the cygwin.dll which provides complete POSIX compatibility in a windows environment.

But the technical details aside, as standard user, you can install cygwin just like a normal windows application, and BAMM! you can have all standard unix components available to you in the cygwin window...

Re: [GUIDE] How to host a server on Linux

@Tee, I'm gonna spoil this now. Please don't ask all this n00b questions all over.

A terminal in Vista is what is called the Command Prompt. The fastest way to start it is by typing "cmd" into Run (in the start menu).

In cmd, you use the command "cd [path to your teeworlds-directory]".
Then you start the server with "teeworlds_srv -f [your configfile]".

Re: [GUIDE] How to host a server on Linux

Do you have some kind of firewall that's blocking the port, that has been overlooked?

Re: [GUIDE] How to host a server on Linux

I see you have a WRT54GS, confused1.
The first step would be getting rid of that awful, awful Linksys firmware and changing it e.g. to Tomato (it's a foolproof procedure - basically like updating the official Firmware):

http://polarcloud.com/tomato

Documentation here:

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Tomato_Firmware

DO NOT put your computer into the DMZ a.k.a. Demilitarized Zone since this very much defies the concept of being behind a router unless it's a dedicated machine not used for anything else and not storing any sensitive data.

When you're running Tomato we can at least be sure that the router itself can't be responsible for any problems given proper port forwarding settings. smile

Re: [GUIDE] How to host a server on Linux

Would the creator of this guide accept to have his guide placed in the Teewiki?

See www.teewiki.info for more information and http://teewiki.info/wiki/Map_Editor_Tutorial for an example of how your guide can be integrated.

It will provide a new way for people to find information while at the same time be very easy to edit for future changes.
