Has anyone ever installed this on Linux? If so, could you help me get mine
up and running?
I don't quite understand what I'm supposed to do in the hsx.conf file. This
is what it contains by default:
R,put your site root path here (/home/hsx for instance)
P,5500 (this is the default hotline port)
T,put tracker address here (you can define upto 32 T lines)
S,put the sitename here (max 31 characters)
D,put the site description here (max 255 characters)
X,put the number of simultaneous downloads (-1=unlimited)
This is what the README file says:
Installing your HSX hotline site in N+1 steps :-)
-------------------------------------------------
Before running HSX, you must configure your site.
1. edit hsx.conf (you can rename it if you want) to
enter your own parameters.
2. You can optionally init your news directory with
something in the news file (and rand.??? files if
you want).
3. Fill the files directory with what you want.
4. Start HSX
5. use a hotline client and log in as "admin".
This account has no password and is the
initial site administrator account.
6. create a "guest" account with no password
if you want to build a public site.
7...N. Do whatever you want
N+1. Set a password on the "admin" account.
This is MANDATORY if you don't want to
have problem with intruders.
Your site is running now. And remember,
you use HSX at your own risk.

I'm not even sure how to start this thing let alone set it up properly.
If anyone can help me here I would greatly appreciate it.
