Trying to find out information on the server requirements for hosting
permanent GPL servers, information on their stability would also be good.
Trying to get some GSP's here in the UK interested in putting some servers
up.
If anyone has any info on what server spec is required for ONE server, and
the bandwidth requirements or know where that information is available I'd
be very grateful.
Cheers

PC specs should be fairly minimal, eg some people have set up servers with
Pentium 200s, 32Mb Ram (more required if server replays desired), and 2D video
(can't run tracks that don't support software mode though).

I have used these fixes and I have only one track that will not run in
software mode. I think it is a fluke that the one track won't work.

I'd never seen that site before - thanks. It doesn't matter at home, since I
have a Voodoo5 card, but my servers at work only have a Voodoo2, which didn't
work with some tracks(GPLEA, mostly)
