[mohaa] curious behavior

[JNagle at franuniv.edu]

Do what I do...go to your Home dir and type pico (or vi depending on your
editor) .bashrc ....so it should like like this using Pico: pico ./bashrc
Add this to the file:

alias sms="./mohaa_lnxded +set dedicated 1 +set net_ip 209.240.4.253 +exec
tdm.cfg &"

Now when you go into your MOHAA dir you can just type 'sms' to start your
server (without the quotes)

I've been having the same experiance and I'm also kinda n00b to linux.
Will try to run it in screen tomorrow to see if it makes a difference.

Is there some kind of hardware minimum for the server? I know my server is
running pretty low on both cpu and memory, though it has alot of bandwidth.
