Guest MegaloManiac Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 My goal, to make my own server that i can access anywhere on the net simply by typing in my IP adress. I have a friend who has this, He uses Linux, but he doesnt know how to set it up his friend set it up for him. So now i want to know how to setup a Server. I'll be reading on OCforumz.com but if any of you know how to then please post up. 1. Windows or Linux? which would you prefer and why, i could careless about piracy :fyi:? 2. "free" programs for them? obviously most Linux programs are free, but functionality wise tell me a good software. 3. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MegaloManiac Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 You can access your server anywhere from the net? I always wondered if windows checks for piracy on the server edition... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
