One of the master servers did not answer

Master 2 appears to have run out of resources (again?)

Indeed, it did. I probably should set up a watchdog or something. Or just force a restart every 24 hours.

Is it the elderly 288mhz laptop? If not, surely there is a way to purge things rather than scripting a reboot. Reboots are nasty imo.

Also, some of this may be of use to you, but that's mainly for intranet based servers. What interests me is the second answer, concerning the 16bit integer. If that is the case (I'm assuming you're running a 'nix based system) then it's a problem that isn't just localised to Armagetron, nor to Microsoft.

Also, what differences are there between the master servers (hardware, software, up/down speed etc)? This has me intrigued.

One other thing: I'm starting up a business in the coming months, and part of my service is hosting. The (free) offer is there, should you need it.

No, it's the crappy VPS. Memory and CPU are not a limit there, but the number of processes active at any one time can be. And no, I'm not rebooting the whole server, just restarting the master process.
