Running a GPL server on an NT machine

2 posts by 2 people · 06 Mar 2000 - 06 Mar 2000 05:51 UTC

Hey there.. I'm interested in setting up a GPL server at work (we have a 56mbit link to the Australian backbone), however, I only currently have access to NT4.0 machines. So my question is this - will it work, and if it will, how do I do it? I intend to run it on VROC as a dedicated server, and will freely admit to knowing nothing about how either VROC or GPL handles things. Will I need another .ini file somewhere, or will VROC do all the setup work for me? Thanks in advance, Andrew +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | Andrew Busch | email : [email hidden] |+ PhD Student | + | Research Concentration in Speech, | Just when you think something is |+ Audio and Video Technology | idiot-proof, somebody builds a + | QUT, AUSTRALIA | better idiot. |+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+

Yes Andrew it'll work. Just install GPL and WinVROC and run them. http://vroc.net has all the info you need for setting up a dedicated server. As a side note...if you plan on running some of the perverted N2/ICR2 tracks you'll need to put a 3dfx card into your server. Phoenix and Homestead are two of the ones that won't run in software mode. -- Michael Horton http://www.bus.nait.ab.ca/staff/mikeh/gpl F2/F3 Hotlaps and Other Downloadables
