More arma server hosting options? Dedicated?

[apparition]

Other than Luke-Jr and TSP, does anyone have a list of options for hosts? Those are the only two I know of that have custom configuration for Armagetron.

How about dedicated servers?

[LucK]

Zurd has cogjockies or w.e it's called. I think Ww does some hosting too.

If anyone knows anymore information on who hosts or admins those options, have them contact me if they want me to consider getting 4 servers hosted.

Four servers you want hosted? Way cheaper for you to get your own dedicated box and set the servers up yourself. You will be able to host far more than four on your own and with less hassles.

Note that home connections are mediocre for servers.

Home hosted servers will NOT work for ladle.

They will most likely burn and crash.

For four servers you should really just get a vps. It will be a lot cheaper and I or someone else could help you set it up

[sinewav]

They should be on different machines.

[AI-team]

Having 4 servers running on the same machine is ok , unless you get a vps

The reason most US alternatives are of such poor quality is because they're VPS, unless i'm misinformed.

Ww is the only US host I know of that uses a dedicated server, but of course they host five million servers, so they still lag.

I have no experience with dedicated servers and hosting, so if someone wouldn't mind to answer the following pesky questions for me-
How do you connect a dedicated server rented from a company, and connect it to create an Armagetron Server? Such as, how does the company create the server? Or is it me, the renter, who creates the server through complicated directions only the smartest of computer programmers know? So in other words, how can a dedicated server/hosting company provide more than a website- an Armagetron server? And finally, what benefits should be looked for in a dedicated server's company such as - will a high amount of memory or bandwidth help in the servers Armagetron performance?

Just wondering because I have been looking into renting a dedicated server but I don't want to waste the first month's 'rent' on just figuring out the darn thing.

Thanks,

I rent/lease a dedicated box/computer from a company for X amount per month in the US. On that computer I run multiple gaming servers in multiple games, including Armagetron servers. Like any computer you download and upload what you wish and go from there.

(and for those who are wondering, I run on linux)

O **** it, Zurd helped meh!

Intelligent man I must say.
