Do you mean actually physically BUILD the server, or run the MOHAA dedicated server on it? If English isn't your first language, fair enough, but as you're from London I don't feel too harsh in asking you to try rephrasing your question if English is your first language.

:) someone from london, hello, erm couldn't you just run Mohaa runner on it, it'll be fine with 512MB and stop it when someone wants to play on it...sorry, i can't give you anymore advice than that.

i wanna build a server like the ones you rent out for privite use how can i and i don't mean from the multiplay options in moh

so i can have rcon and run dmw on it.

i have two pc's networked together i use my main one for playing game's like moh and surffing the net and i have a secend pc doing nothing so i would like to turn it in to a server so my mates can come and play on it and make it public to all

plz i need to know how to build one if someone here has got the time to tell me how then plz let me know thanx guys

you already have the PC built, all you need is to decide what OS you will want to run. If you don't know *nix, then I would suggest that you stick to Windows 2000.

bare in mind you only have a finite amount of bandwidth on your connection, and that any more than 3 or 4 ppl on your server and you could experience LAG (this is if you have broadband).

Good luck
