How in the world do I run a server on Linux?

Post by Merlin »

I'm rather confused. I cant run the server under linux. Is there a way to start the server in Linux that I'm not aware of? (I tested and can run the sperate EXE's on a WIN box!) I'm lost to this one. What command do I use to run it?

Computer games don't affect kids, I mean if Pac Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music. Has anybody seen this princess I'm looking for?

Just run the login-server, char-server and map-server binaries.

e.g. chmod +rx login-server
./login-server

Thank you for your reply.
I was unaware of the commands needed.
I am rather new to linux as a primary OS and didn't know of the chmod

This was the ONE hurdle in my developing maps for the game.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!
