| 19:39.14 | scott | yeah |
| 19:39.15 | blast007 | extra $75 setup fee for that |
| 19:40.09 | nn-main | lol i let ahs3 install his own system and kernal in the server i gave him root access 2 |

| 19:43.00 | nn-main | lol i put in a gentoo install cd then gave him ssh to it :) |

| 19:46.20 | nn-main | on the line im on the onily reason it was lower is the speed test uses one mass file |

| 19:50.26 | brlcad | eh, comcast business lines are exceptionally expensive |
| 19:50.45 | Winny | JeffM: sagonet, their cheapest |
| 19:50.46 | nn-main | Yes but there Relible and Really Fast |
| 19:50.47 | brlcad | and if it's not a business line, then you can be screwed at their discretion |
| 19:50.49 | Winny | been pretty nice so far |
| 19:51.02 | L4m3r | they are not "really fast" |
| 19:51.10 | blast007 | downstream maybe |
| 19:51.16 | brlcad | no more reliable than any other isp |
| 19:51.18 | L4m3r | 2mbps upstream is pretty mediocre for serving much of anything |
| 19:51.34 | brlcad | especially what they charge for it on the business lines |
| 19:52.00 | L4m3r | I'd buy DSL over comcast |
| 19:52.30 | L4m3r | my dad is about ready to switch... his connection is horribly unreliable and he's just starting to realize how much the cable and broadband are costing him |

| 19:53.43 | blast007 | nn-main: how long until that contract runs out? |

| 19:55.50 | nn-main | owell atlest there upping the band with to keep up with compition |

| 19:57.37 | nn-main | well the people i server pay nothing !!!! And i know even if i doin't have the best band in the wold. you probably couldent beet the fact that im literly giving out machienes to users for free |
| 19:58.07 | Winny | the people you server? |
| 19:58.21 | nn-main | ahs3 has his own server with me |
| 19:58.24 | L4m3r | I think he meant "the people I sever" |
| 19:58.29 | L4m3r | it's comcast after all |
| 19:58.38 | donny_baker | nn-main: you are giving people individual machines or virtual hosts? |
| 19:58.52 | donny_baker | nor all on one box |
| 19:58.56 | nn-main | depends |
| 19:59.04 | nn-main | i have one machiene |
| 19:59.17 | nn-main | given out |
| 19:59.24 | nn-main | planning a secount |
| 19:59.35 | L4m3r | it doesn't matter, really. the connection is the bottleneck |
| 19:59.40 | Winny | mhmm |
| 19:59.40 | nn-main | for a master hoster / mapper who wants one |
| 19:59.51 | donny_baker | yeah, i was thinking about security between users :P |
| 19:59.57 | blast007 | what security? |
| 19:59.58 | Winny | you'd probably need a 20+mbit connection to really need more then one comp |
| 20:00.15 | blast007 | yeah, my Pentium 133 could max out his upstream |
| 20:00.18 | nn-main | im also been giving out ssh but i decided i need more info on the user so im not lible |
| 20:00.25 | nn-main | address and phone |
| 20:00.40 | L4m3r | you'd still be liable. it's your connection. |
| 20:00.58 | L4m3r | or rather, your parents would be liable |
| 20:01.52 | donny_baker | list server problems? |
| 20:02.01 | L4m3r | in reality, nn, your connection would be good for one or two bzflag servers |
| 20:02.06 | donny_baker | never mind |
| 20:02.13 | nn-main | ahs3 is helping me with that |
| 20:02.17 | Winny | probably a max of 20 players too |

| 20:02.26 | L4m3r | on one box |
| 20:02.31 | nn-main | y so ... im lucky if i get 10 |

| 20:14.31 | donny_baker | and if you are talking about that forums topic... that is a dream |

| 20:15.33 | donny_baker | yeah... thats the one i am refering to |
| 20:15.36 | blast007 | I don't see that ever happening |
| 20:15.42 | donny_baker | me either |
| 20:16.02 | blast007 | if anything, I'd see one server that could run multiple 'zones' in a map, and have teleporters redirect between zones |
| 20:16.20 | blast007 | would help divide up the player updates, since you only need updates from players in your zone |
| 20:16.33 | blast007 | and would get around the issue of a reconnection delay |

| 20:17.51 | blast007 | though I would probably enjoy trying to do something like that |
| 20:18.04 | blast007 | (my ideal concept, not the reconnect-to-a-different-server one) |
| 20:19.08 | nn-main | well split up data in between 2 servers than have the server compress the data inbetween the two hosts |
| 20:19.30 | donny_baker | ??? |
| 20:20.05 | Winny | thats a crapload of lag |
| 20:20.17 | nn-main | clients --> host one <---compress---> host 2 <------ clients |
| 20:20.34 | nn-main | oh |
| 20:20.35 | Winny | whats the point dude? |
| 20:20.54 | nn-main | my cp messed up message |
| 20:21.01 | Winny | any server that you rent from a datacenter can easily support 3+ servers |
| 20:21.21 | Winny | I imgaine a p4 3.0ghz with 1gb of RAM could probably run all the top servers on the list |
| 20:21.34 | nn-main | :( |
| 20:21.50 | nn-main | i feel small but keep my ground |
| 20:21.53 | nn-main | :-D |
| 20:22.50 | blast007 | a Pentium II could run a good amount of players :P |

| 20:23.03 | nn-main | i use p3's |
| 20:23.18 | nn-main | correct bzfs dosent |
| 20:23.36 | nn-main | it just uses internet band with |
| 20:23.37 | blast007 | nn-main: I used to run a server on a Pentium 133Mhz with 48MB of RAM |
| 20:24.00 | nn-main | lol i try to use 256M to 712M ram |
| 20:24.03 | blast007 | was only 6 players though, cuz my upstream was like 200kbps |
| 20:24.09 | nn-main | on my hosts |
| 20:24.18 | blast007 | but even with all 6, it never used much CPU |
| 20:24.49 | nn-main | any one want to help me test my version of badjerking _----> Testing 3 team ctf ---> userbin.net |
| 20:24.56 | Winny | uh |
| 20:25.03 | Winny | You better ask badgerking if you can host his map |
| 20:25.19 | Winny | people don't take kindly to modding -- their maps without their permission. |
| 20:25.20 | nn-main | point taken |
| 20:25.40 | Winny | err, remove the "--", I never finished my thought. |
| 20:25.41 | blast007 | sometimes don't even take kindly to used an unmodified map |
| 20:26.03 | nn-main | im just testing it for a day ??? you know how i can reach him |
| 20:26.07 | nn-main | ? |
| 20:26.19 | nn-main | contact him? |
| 20:26.21 | blast007 | uh, the forum? yeah, maybe the forum |

| 21:25.14 | JeffM | L4m3r, if I wanted a dedecated server on a crapy connection I'd set one up here at work ;) |
| 21:25.44 | JeffM | nn-main, and yes I am looking for profesional level hosting |
| 21:26.25 | JeffM | server pronto dosn't look too bad, not a huge drive, but I probalby won't use more then 40 gigs |
| 21:26.54 | JeffM | and they do have a setup fee |
| 21:27.34 | nn-main | JeffM: ? |
| 21:27.37 | ruskie | superb-servers ? |
| 21:28.29 | JeffM | nn-main, re: your comments on the home hosting that your doing |
| 21:29.09 | Winny | JeffM: we got the cheapest deal from sagonet, but they ended up giving us a better server |
| 21:29.21 | JeffM | ahh |
| 21:29.36 | JeffM | I looked at that "volume drive" thing, they seem shady |
| 21:29.42 | Winny | mhmm |
| 21:29.46 | JeffM | no mention of bandiwth |
| 21:30.37 | JeffM | 50$ for the celly isn't bad |
| 21:31.30 | JeffM | tho for 19$ a month more, can get a faster system with more ram, and more IPs thru xlhost |
| 21:31.48 | Winny | you can get free IPs |
| 21:31.57 | Winny | you just need to have a reason for then |
| 21:31.58 | JeffM | don't realy need IPs |
| 21:32.05 | JeffM | the ram would be the big kicker |
| 21:32.07 | Winny | them* |
| 21:32.49 | JeffM | sagonet seem nice if you don't need much cus you can get cheaper then xlhost |
| 21:32.55 | JeffM | they have a cheaper minimum package |
| 21:33.33 | Constitution | cheap was the primary concern for us |
| 21:33.35 | JeffM | as soon as you get off that baseline tho xlhost has better value |
| 21:33.45 | JeffM | 90$ for a core2 |
| 21:33.47 | nn-main | humm maby they should change the channel form #bzflag to #server-price-decussion |
| 21:34.15 | JeffM | this is somewhat related to bzflag hosting ;) |
| 21:34.24 | JeffM | as it would host bzfs servers |
| 21:34.33 | Winny | indeed |
| 21:34.34 | JeffM | and could posibly be a backup list server |
| 21:34.54 | JeffM | since yon Erroneous/ DTRemenak would have the roots ;) |
| 21:35.02 | JeffM | would depend where they are |
| 21:35.13 | JeffM | I don't think we'll need THAT many list nodes |
| 21:35.28 | JeffM | US, europe, asia may be good enough |
| 21:35.47 | JeffM | Winny, do you know where they are? |
| 21:35.57 | Winny | sagonet? |
| 21:36.01 | JeffM | yes |
| 21:36.05 | Winny | They're in Miami and Atlanta, IIRC |
| 21:36.11 | JeffM | k |
| 21:36.18 | JeffM | similar to where the current server is |
| 21:36.36 | Winny | isn't the current listserver hosted on sagonet as well..? |
| 21:36.45 | Constitution | ~dns bz.bzflag.bz |
| 21:36.46 | JeffM | dunno |
| 21:36.51 | Winny | I thought yep |
| 21:36.51 | Constitution | ~dns server1.fairserve.net |
| 21:36.55 | Winny | saognet |
| 21:36.57 | JeffM | ahh |
| 21:37.11 | nn-main | ~dns bzfmaps.net |
| 21:37.29 | Winny | ~dns 74.94.43.197 |
| 21:37.34 | nn-main | ? |
| 21:37.54 | nn-main | lol do i have to call them to fix that |
| 21:38.00 | Winny | uh |
| 21:38.00 | JeffM | the ISP |
| 21:38.01 | Winny | fix what? |
| 21:38.08 | Constitution | doubt they'll change that for you |
| 21:38.12 | JeffM | yeah |
| 21:38.12 | nn-main | that reverse resolve |
| 21:38.12 | Constitution | do you even have a static IP? |
| 21:38.19 | nn-main | yep |
| 21:38.21 | nn-main | thats it |
| 21:38.23 | JeffM | who's your dns? |
| 21:38.26 | nn-main | or one of them |
| 21:38.35 | nn-main | regestar.com |
| 21:38.38 | JeffM | that'd be why |
| 21:38.50 | nn-main | why? |
| 21:38.50 | JeffM | you need them to change the DNS at the ISP |
| 21:38.57 | JeffM | cus that's the way it works |
| 21:39.03 | nn-main | oh !!!!! |
| 21:39.06 | nn-main | ok |
| 21:39.22 | JeffM | havent' read up on DNS in your studies yet? |
| 21:39.31 | nn-main | lol nope |
| 21:39.43 | nn-main | dns is really complicated |
| 21:39.46 | JeffM | that should probably be one of your first topics |
| 21:39.48 | JeffM | not really |
| 21:40.25 | nn-main | i have loked into running one but not how multiple hosts work passing dns data |
| 21:40.36 | JeffM | it's a system not just one server |
| 21:41.00 | nn-main | y i know that lol |
| 21:41.02 | JeffM | reverse DNS can't go to your dns server, because it dosn't know what DNS server resolves for that IP |
| 21:41.17 | nn-main | ok |
| 21:41.37 | JeffM | with all the money your sinking into this I'd think you take the education a bit more seriously. |
| 21:42.28 | nn-main | Areally anoing that the bzflag client isnt 2 player split screen compatible like arm agerton |
| 21:42.34 | nn-main | armagetron* |
| 21:43.02 | JeffM | ummm ok |
| 21:43.11 | JeffM | it's a network game |
| 21:43.14 | JeffM | always has been |
| 21:43.21 | JeffM | not a single player game |
| 21:44.09 | nn-main | i want to play agenst my brother on the same cp because all the other cps dont have a good graphics card. we have to joysticks the problem is bzflag dosent support 2 player |
| 21:44.25 | JeffM | bzflag can not do all things that all people want |
| 21:44.30 | JeffM | it is not that type of game |
| 21:44.37 | Winny | dude, can you please type properly? even "comp" is better then "cp" ... |
| 21:45.27 | nn-main | ok sory |
| 21:46.03 | donny_baker | sorry* |
| 21:46.52 | JeffM | your statement is sort of like you saying that your annoyed that your car dosn't drive more like a motorcycle. |
| 21:50.49 | A_Heart_Attack | Does anyone know how to run an irc bot on windows using smartIRC? |
| 21:51.33 | Winny | A_Heart_Attack: surely the smartIRC has some docs on it? |
| 21:52.00 | A_Heart_Attack | Yes. I have made the bot, but im not entirely sure how to run it |
| 21:55.48 | donny_baker | A_Heart_Attack: how about asking in #smartirc? |
| 21:56.06 | A_Heart_Attack | That would make sense. :) |
| 21:56.10 | donny_baker | :) |
| 21:56.11 | Winny | heh |
| 22:01.06 | Tupone | nn-main: have you tried running 2 instances of bzflag windowed, with energy saving? on? |
