AW: [bf1942] bf1942 crashing?

[Martin Steiger]

Not for the linux server. As far as I know, there's a "+restart 1" setting
for the windows server, but I don't know, does it have the "expected"
effect... :)

I know two possibilities to restart the linux-server at the moment:
- Using BFSMD with the -restart parameter
- Using an external script (search for restartWrapper at the
www.bf1942.lighcubed.com/ forums)

Does anyone know more?

Is there anyone to make the daemon automatically restart itself in the event
of a crash? I mean, if you're trying to run a game hosting company and the
daemon crashes....your clients are not going to be happy.

The daemon is known to crash, and it is more common the more players are on
the server.

By the way, I've been running a DC_No_Fly_Zone 24/7 server, and it's been
vastly more stable, even with a lot of players.  So apparently, it has to
do with the number of players and also the frequency of map changes, since
this one (running CTF 10 games at a time) takes a loooong time between map
changes.
