Re: FoosterNET Hosting (Free during beta testing!)

Thank you for explaining the basics of the architecture that you have chosen. Personally, I think that running ssh on non-standard ports is always more secure. I am glad to hear that you are going the container route. I understand a little about containers. But only a little. I haven't had a reason ...

Re: BitCoins!

Well, I put $20 into an ICO, Electroneum (ETN). After 3 months I cashed out and was able to pay for my divorce.

Re: Activity? :(

Here are some links.

https://https://discord.gg/pXP6nWq
https://discord.gg/uq8jmbr
https://discord.gg/cfb97MU

Those are the three servers that are Armagetron related that I have my discord set to connect to. The second one is the most active and people do use it to organize playing together.

Re: FoosterNET Hosting (Free during beta testing!)

What sorts of security implications does screen have? I mean, you still have to ssh in to the server to use screen... Good question! I was wondering that myself. Considering that one user cannot attach to another user's screen, I could see where this might be an issue if all users of the control pa...

Re: FoosterNET Hosting (Free during beta testing!)

I would prefer sty+ct+ap, for the flexibility. Don't worry about the screen. If there are security implications, I would rather not do it. I am just used to doing command line, etc. on my own servers. Thank you for the login credentials. I checked and I can login.

Re: FoosterNET Hosting (Free during beta testing!)

Nope, all I need is the normal server start script. Ideally I would like to be able to attach to a screen session that the server is running in, but I can live without it.

Re: FoosterNET Hosting (Free during beta testing!)

Just so you know, I did actually find affordable VPS hosting with anti-ddos protection. The locations that I found that were the best combination of performance/value were Dallas, Los Angeles, Los Vegas, possible New Jersery (I want to really test that before I say its any good) and the UK. Once I h...

Re: FoosterNET Hosting (Free during beta testing!)

Where is the server located? I might be interested if it is a complementary location to the VPS I self host in NY.

Re: Brawl

Thanks guys for the info! I was going to ask about the CT resources, and thanks for that, Kyle. I am listing the settings that I have gone with here.

Re: Brawl

I would like to put up a new Ww CTF server. But I would like to use Brawl settings. However, I don't have a copy anymore and the link on the wiki to them is a dead link. Does anybody have the brawl settings and is willing to share them? If not, I will recreate them as best that I can remember and fi...

Re: Broken links, broken website

My apologies for suggesting WordPress! I am just used to using it for Internet Marketing purposes. I can certainly see where MediaWiki would make more sense and be easily maintained. I completely agree that arguments of any sort at this point are beyond useless and counter-productive. I really do ju...

Broken links, broken website

Several years ago there was a lot of discussion about making a new main website. Let's list the problems of the current site. Most of the links are broken links. Half of the news on the site are April Fools jokes. The newest news item is 2 years old, so it looks like nothing is happening. I know tha...

Lucifer, if you would like, I have put up a Ladle server. Howerver, there is no way I can be there to manage it if there are problems. If you like, I will add USER_LEVEL Lucifer@forums 0 to my Ladle server so you can help out if there is a problem. By the way, no way is this the last Ladle! I bet th...

Re: Fortress_ai branch

Thank you very much. I am hoping that I can build a fortress server that is interesting for a single player to camp in and with the growing Discord community perhaps even get people to camp in a fortress server and get games going again.
