A Mac Mini's processing power and hardware isn't server class at all... that said no matter what you do you will not get good performance from srcds or anything else that can be processor-demanding from it.

Please read this carefully it is a very confusing situation. I own a game server hosting company and this one server is really starting to be a problem. Its a 20 man dod server on an amd64 processor that isnt using an amd 64 bit kernel (linux). The box is a Windows 2003 install, with virtual server running the linux "server" inside of that. The problem is the server will run fine for ever, you can play in it you can do everything, but randomly it will time out on the game server list built into steam, and my hlsw. But the people that were playing it it continue to play just fine. Just no one can find the server. It doesnt have to have people in it to time out. If I start the server before I go to bed, and then when I wake up look for server on list it will be there. But then 15 mins later it will be down and wont ever come back. Once in a while I go into console while its timed out to the server browswers, and change maps. It comes back on server list for 5 - 10 mins (its random) and then goes back into timeout. I tried starting it witn -binary ./hlds_amd and ./hlds_i686 still times out randomly. I tried addins some setmasters to no help. I even put the setmasters add in autoexec.cfg I really need some help here. Is it the windows box doing some dos attack protection? (like its being pinged to much on that port and shutting it down?) Wow while I Was typing this email the sever started responsing to hlsw and steam server locator. I wanted to see if it restarted so I typed stats and it has been up for 805 mins, so it must have been an auto map change. Yeah its back down again. :0( Its a stock 2003 install, and I know its not a problem with the hlds install becuase I did to installs. One fresh ./steam -update install and one I coppied from another working dod server of mine.

RE: [hlds_linux] Linux on virutal server
IMHO...running a latency-sensitive program in a virual machine is perfect stupidity. You ask for someone to fix a problem that you created. Run the game server from the main Win2k3 install and then seek support. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sid Stuart Sent: Friday, June 24, 2005 5:19 PM To: hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Linux on virutal server This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Though I am tempted, I will not ask why anyone would configure a server in such a way.

[hlds_linux] Linux on virutal server
Hello. Please read this carefully it is a very confusing situation. I own a game server hosting company and this one server is really starting to be a problem. Its a 20 man dod server on an amd64 processor that isnt using an amd 64 bit kernel (linux). The box is a Windows 2003 install, with virtual server running the linux "server" inside of that. The problem is the server will run fine for ever, you can play in it you can do everything, but randomly it will time out on the game server list built into steam, and my hlsw. But the people that were playing it it continue to play just fine. Just no one can find the server. It doesnt have to have people in it to time out. If I start the server before I go to bed, and then when I wake up look for server on list it will be there. But then 15 mins later it will be down and wont ever come back. Once in a while I go into console while its timed out to the server browswers, and change maps. It comes back on server list for 5 - 10 mins (its random) and then goes back into timeout. I tried starting it witn -binary ./hlds_amd and ./hlds_i686 still times out randomly. I tried addins some setmasters to no help. I even put the setmasters add in autoexec.cfg I really need some help here. Is it the windows box doing some dos attack protection? (like its being pinged to much on that port and shutting it down?) Wow while I Was typing this email the sever started responsing to hlsw and steam server locator. I wanted to see if it restarted so I typed stats and it has been up for 805 mins, so it must have been an auto map change. Yeah its back down again. :0( Its a stock 2003 install, and I know its not a problem with the hlds install becuase I did to installs. One fresh ./steam -update install and one I coppied from another working dod server of mine. Please help me with any information you can thanks so much. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
