  • I have a question can you use Linux servers to hold Windows and Mac files?

  • @DOW234SP yes the file type is irrelevant as long as the client trying to access the file has the correct program to open it.

  • hey computer whiz after i create a Linux server how do i create game servers?

  • @fcarreiro generally speaking there is no reason to follow this tutorial to get a game server. For most games, all you need to do is have any distro of linux installed and run the server client for that game (will be provided by the developers if available, not all games have servers)

  • @c0mputerwhiz1 i Have a PC windows is there anyway of me creating a game server? i tryed to open router ports but i doesnt work i don't know why...

  • @fcarreiro i'm not going to be much help here, sorry. Your going to have to download the correct server client, and set your router/firewall settings to get everything to work. You should be able to find most of this information on the website for the game you are trying to run a server for. Also google around and see what other people have done. Best thing to do is to learn from other peoples mistakes.

  • Computer Whiz my ass, you use a mac. Who are you trying to fool. I bet you don't even know what a transistor is.

  • why is you so southern, but thanks anyway

  • waste of time, just go to part2

  • @sg86sg wizards take away your freedom to tune your system for your needs. They are the opposite to the Arch way. I had a terrible day last week installing Sabayon 7 with their wizard and then trying to get rid of software RAID I hadn't asked for. If you like choices made for you, install Ubuntu or even Windows. They have wizards.

  • 1) thanks for the video

    2) Could you please resize your terminal and maybe set a larger font next time? You've got a beautiful motherboard but that's not what everyone expects to see in the vid)))

    3) Arch installation is imho not about blank fields and autoprepare drives. A basic guide on rc.conf, rc.sysinit and inittab would be helpful for many.

    4) Arch-based system is imho not suitable for a web server. It may prove not stable enough.
