After working on it for awhile, I think I have my server working decently
now.
Redirect "appears" to be working and there is a good assortment of maps.
If anyone wants to log in and give it a try, please let me know how if
everything seems OK.
I especially want to know how the lag and map downloads are.

Also if there are any former {AGUT} members out there, stop on by.

Hmm, Instagib DeathMatch, and the loading screen says "You can pass
your weapon to a team-mate by pressing [...]" Heh.

Oh well, it's working.

Map downloads are pretty quick, but lag is awful. Oh, you are running
it on a cable modem, no wonder. TCP/IP ping is bouncing around
between 50 and 200ms from here, and no matter what you think your
upstream bandwidth is, it isn't.

Dedicated server or not?

What's the hardware it's running on?

Same (lag) here. For the original poster, you generally can't run a game
server on a home cable-modem connection. The upstream bandwidth provided
by the cable ISP's just isn't enough. Also, it most likely is
*SPECIFICALLY* prohibited by the Terms of Service that you agreed to with
the cable company... Good luck.

Hi there, tried to get in a few times, sadly connection failed. I seem
to have a problem connecting to mututsecure servers...don't know why,
couple of skins, some keybinds, no speed, no aimbot, radar etc. It's
probally something on my end; does connect, loads map, instagib
mutator etc.

I added it to my favs seeing that your in RI <me too> since you live
here i must know you, or at least know someone that knows you <grin>

i'll try again later.
misery <------noobish, dm not my cup-o-tea, glad to test :)

I know what you mean about the upstream.
What they tell you and what you really have are too different things. ;-)

Yup.

Intel SBT2 server board.
Dual 933 Xeons.
1 Gig Ram (upgrading soon)
nVidia Gforce Ti 4600
10 Harddrives:
Seagate 18.2 Gig U160 10,000 RPM each
( 2 RAID 5's using 5 drives each in 2 hotswap bays)
I am building an external case for another RAID 5 in a couple of
weeks,
which will bring the drives up to 15.
DVD Rom
Windows 2003 Server Enterprise edition

My roommate had eMule running all night on his workstation . :-\
That thing eats up half the network resources.
The server should be more responsive now as nothing else is running on the
network.

That's one thing I have not got installed yet. Next on the list.

[lotsa fast hard drive]

Plenty of horsepower, but your residential "broadband" just can't take
it, as you've noticed. Ours is awful too, but the price per bit is
low enough that I'm not going to upgrade. 8*)

Cox a offering a "Premiere" package that is supposed to be "up to" 30%
faster,
but they want twice the price for it. What's really strange is the business
service they offer
in my area is actually slower.

Yup, it's a rip-off.

I'll bet the *UPSTREAM* speed is faster, which is what matters when trying
to run a server of any kind. Most home cable is 256 Kbit/sec upstream, or
about 30 KBytes/sec. Not enough for a real game server. The business
class is probably 384Kb or 512Kb.

But probably has better service, may have better guarantees, and may
have a different mix of up/down speeds.
