<div class="post"><div class="posttop"><div class="username">madgabz</div><div class="date">11/12/02, 03:40 am</div></div><div class="posttext">Hi all,<br />
<br />
I'm a bit befuddled as to setup multiple Q3A-gameservers properly in linux, so that it is done in the most economical way, and with no problems for PunkBusters autoupdate!<br />
<br />
I read the post over at EvenBalance: Run multiple PB-Enabled servers on one computer  (http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=support#multiple)<br />
<br />
I also read the Quake3 and Mod's on Symlinks (http://www.gameadmins.com/modules.php?name=Sections&amp;op=viewarticle&amp;artid=28)<br />
But that article really doesnt make much sense, as it seems VERY untidy and entirely based on a symlinking-file-to-file-nitpicking-basis. But I'm a linux-n00b, so maybe it IS the only way...??? :(<br />
<br />
What I dont quite understand is how the FS_HOMEPATH variable works?<br />
<br />
Does it make q3a-server keep looking at mods in a separate dir, yet still getting data/maps from the original baseq3?<br />
<br />
I was thinking of setting it up like this:<br />
Base install in  /usr/local/bin/games/quake3/<br />
<br />
Server A (OSP server!):<br />
Install in  /usr/local/bin/games/q3a/<br />
Startup-options: +set fs_homepath ../q3a<br />
folders:<br />
pb<br />
folder-symlinks:<br />
baseq3 =&gt; /usr/local/bin/games/quake3/baseq3<br />
osp =&gt; /usr/local/bin/games/quake3/osp<br />
<br />
Server B (InstaUnlagged server!):<br />
Install in  /usr/local/bin/games/q3b/<br />
Startup-options: +set fs_homepath ../q3b<br />
folders:<br />
pb<br />
folder-symlinks:<br />
baseq3 =&gt; /usr/local/bin/games/quake3/baseq3<br />
InstaUnlagged =&gt; /usr/local/bin/games/quake3/InstaUnlagged<br />
<br />
I would then make shell scripts to start  q3ded from usr/local/bin/games/quake3/<br />
<br />
This should make it possible to setup even more servers using the SAME baseq3 and mod-dirs, making it easier to update mods and adding new maps, without all the redundancy of having a new complete install for every gameserver....i think!<br />
<br />
Would this work? Or does symlinks work in a different way?</div></div><hr />


<div class="post"><div class="posttop"><div class="username">Unregistered</div><div class="date">11/22/02, 02:14 pm</div></div><div class="posttext">You are on the right track.<br />
<br />
Just do this:<br />
<br />
1) INstall all games in /usr/local/games/quake3 (including all addons, etc)<br />
<br />
2) Strip all the configs from that install (ie remove them and save them for later)<br />
<br />
3) Make sure root owns that folder, and chmod -R 0555. This way the files can be read and not overwritten.<br />
<br />
4) Setup user accounts in /home/game1 /home/game2<br />
<br />
5) Symlink the stuff:<br />
cp -Rds /usr/local/games/quake3 /home/game1/<br />
*this will symlink ALL the files, that is why we stripped the configs to start with*<br />
<br />
6) Copy your configs that you removed before to /home/game1/quake3/baseq3<br />
<br />
7) Edit, change IPs/Ports and fire it up!<br />
<br />
*You may wish to just make a .tar.gz of the configs so they unpack automatically in the right place. I run like 23 servers and this saves me LOTS of time*</div></div><hr />
