README for Quake Server port
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
NOTE: For those who used my old port of quakeserver (v1.01), this is radically
|
|
different. It now uses the BSD/OS unix dedicated binary, which eliminates
|
|
the need for the Linux emulation and improves stability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This port, as installed, contains the following directory structure
|
|
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/readme.port this file
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/readme.unixded unix server readme
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/qserver.sh shell script to run the
|
|
server
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/unixded server binary
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/quakeserver.log server logfile
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/quakeserver.in server console named pipe
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/id1/pak0.pak quake shareware datafile
|
|
|
|
This will run a shareware Quake server on UDP port 26000, binding to all
|
|
addresses on the machine. For server options, read the readme.unixded file
|
|
and look at the suggestions in qserver.sh.
|
|
|
|
The startup procedure for the server is:
|
|
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/etc/rc.d/quakeserver.sh runs the server as user 'nobody'.
|
|
Input is redirected from the named pipe
|
|
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/quakeserver.in
|
|
|
|
and output is redirected to
|
|
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/quakeserver.log.
|
|
|
|
You can see the output of the console by viewing quakeserver.log, and feed
|
|
commands to the server by echoing them into quakeserver.in.
|
|
|
|
NOTE THAT THIS COULD REPRESENT A SECURITY RISK ON MACHINES RUNNING WEB
|
|
SERVERS AS USER 'nobody'. If your system does this, please create an
|
|
alternate pseudo-user to run the server as.
|
|
|
|
One of the frequently asked questions about this port is how to run a
|
|
registered server. It's pretty simple. If you want to run just a shareware
|
|
server, copy the files from the ID1/ subdirectory of an installed copy of
|
|
Quake into %%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/id1/. Remember to make all filenames
|
|
lowercase.
|
|
|
|
If you want to run a shareware and registered server in tandem, you will
|
|
need to have a machine with multiple IP addresses (using aliasing or other
|
|
methods). Copy the files from the ID1/ subdirectory to a new directory
|
|
under %%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/ (such as reg/), and run two servers.
|
|
Presuming that your machine has two addresses 10.10.10.10 and 10.10.10.11,
|
|
the lines to launch the server would be :
|
|
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/unixded -ip 10.10.10.10
|
|
%%PREFIX%%/quakeserver/unixded -ip 10.10.10.11 -game reg
|
|
|
|
Which would give you a shareware game on 10.10.10.10 and a registered game
|
|
on 10.10.10.11.
