Running a dedicated server on a dual P3 1ghz with a gig of RAM and pings are in the 600+? CPU useage is about 11% on both and bandwidth up and down is around 50kb/s. with 10 or so players on the game.

any ideas why pings are unplayable?

Running Win2k pro - service pack 2

this is the win2k creeping ping issue. You really need to speak to killing about it as he knows a lot more. Either run UT on nt4 or *nix is the solution.

Cheers for that Killing. A mate who was pissed off with the pings already downloaded that and emailed it to me. :)

Cheers all the same.

Try playing with the tick rate aswell that helped us when we hosted our clan server from home.
