Hi, folks,
I have a spare computer and want to use it as an OFP server (Sanctuary's WW4 mod), on occasion (I'd also like to get it running the Mumble server, just to test it out). I want to use Linux (Ubuntu; I want to learn more about using Linux), but I have some questions that I think some of you could help me with.
My main question: Is the OFP Linux server supposed to be installed in a server version of Linux, or can it be installed in, say, the desktop version of Ubuntu?
Other questions I have I'm trying to work through before asking them. . .
Any pointers you can give will be much appreciated.
(The main reason I'm wanting to set this up is to learn more about Linux and networking. Just to clarify, I just want to see how this stuff works.)
Thanks, folks, for any help!
