[mohaa] Linux Server Set-Up

[MOH at digitalnines.com]

These options should be modified:
3 + 4) You can try uploading those via ftp yourself [would be rather slow, i presume], or have someone kind enough to send you those files from their dedicated server [*lot* faster]
If you are uploading it yourself, it would take a night or two for all those files to be on the server but sending it to your host will take close to a week for you to get everything up and running.

  PLEASE HELP..we are confused.  We have a dedicated server that has a Linux OS.    We have no physical access to our server, we have to access it via the internet (like most).    Basically it is completely unmanaged, we do everything. 

  Does the server only need the Spearhead Linux Dedicated Server Beta 5 in order to host a public Spearhead Game.  Or does the server have to have the Game on it also?  

  If it needs the game on it, how do we put that on a Linux server when it is a Windows application.   Walk me throught this like I am a 5 year old 
  please.   I will try to explain what I think is supposed to be done: 

  1) I install the game on my home computer, patch it,  etc...  
  2) I add the the Linux dedicated server files, the "fgameded.so" file to the Mainta Folder.  And the "spearhead_lnxded" file to the MOHAA Main directory (not the Main folder).  
  3) Then copy the entire MOHAA game folder onto a couple of CDR's and send those to the Linux Server place.  
  4) They copy the files from the disc into the server. 

  IS THIS CORRECT??? or I am ass backwards on this?  

  THANK YOU.
