Excellent work In Love , I was actually thinking of installing the FDS on Linux once. Seeing as I am interested in Linux now-a-days eventhough when people hear Linux they are like WTF geeK!. But with KDE or GNOME.. it's probably easier and cheaper to use then Windhoos.

I have the 10.35fds on cd somewhere besides other tons of Renegade stuff, didn't know there was a 10.37 this is nice.

I am going to try to install it on SUSE 10.3 I will post the results later.

First the download link you gave is the wrong link.

You need to get this one: ftp://ftp.westwood.com/pub/renegade/dedicatedserver/linux-beta/Renegade_1037b_BE TA_RH8-0.tar.gz

You gave this one: File: renegade_server_1037b_RH8-0.gz 3811 KB 03/03/03 00:00:00

Anyways I installed it on Open SUSE 10.3 last night.

1)First I made a folder in my root called Renegade
2)Then I extracted the .gz with a built-in program called ark
3)I downloaded the server.ini and srvcg from my Windhoos box
4)I went to the Shell console
5)cd /Renegade/Server (like you said)
6) started it with /Renegade/Server/renegade_server_1037b_rh8-0



JPWEB01:~ # cd /Renegade/Server
JPWEB01:/Renegade/Server # /Renegade/Server/renegade_server_1037b_rh8-0

So so far, so good, I opened a local machine with the good old Renegade. I saw the server it in the LAN list.
Then I changed the config to WOL mode.

I get the following error: "*** Auto starting game. Type 'quit' to abort ***"
Without actually thinking of looking in this forum, I troubleshooted myself. And not found out that the problem is in the "gametype"
Linux FDS does not by standard support WOL.

Also See this post: http://www.renegadeforums.com/index.php?t=msg&th=24455&start=0&rid=2 368

In other words you might want to change some things in that guide.
Suggestions:

Make it step wise
Add in how-to apply the patch because im sure anyone who wishes to uses the Linux FDS will what to host it on XWIS.
Test it yourself, so that people won't have to come to the conclusion that some things don't work.

Other then that, it's a good way to start on setting up a Linux FDS.

Because of you I got the idea to install it on my webserver. Big Ups

I am very pleased with the FDS on Linux. To bad it never really got alot of attention. That brings me to another question how many servers owners actually run the FDS 24/7 on a Linux distribution in productive envoirement.

i actually think its really stable too.

However idk if the server would run good on a webserver.
could you tell me the specs of your webserver?
