I need help with CentOS !

[Jackster22]

Well im close to a noob with Linux.

Mainly the ones i haven't used.

Iv got a VPS that will need setting up to run a Game Server / Web Hosting soon.

Is anyone here good with this type of thing?

I can't pay you but iv got $5 gift cards and I give away web hosting.


Plz?

Please describe better what you are having trouble with.

That's just for opinions...

Well iv got a CentOS 5 Server and i need to Host Game Servers off it.

I need basic help with the games as im not fully getting how they can run on linux.

I ill also need MySQL as well as some sort of Web Panel.

I really want Direct Admin but i don't have the $$ for that now.

Hmm, well, Windows programs do not run on Linux, there is a program to run them with, but it doesn't work very well.

 

[Jackster22]

Some games have files that do run on lunix

 

[lucasbytegenius]

Well, then, I can't help you.

 

[Jackster22]

Well i need someone to as iv had 12 Game Server orders in ;P

The question is what gameservers? Source engine ones are easier but COD4 and Unreal ones are a little tougher.

Need more info:

which dedicated servers are you running?

Why do you need MySQL, is it for stats?

What mods do you plan on running?

Have you tried looking at the dedicated server documentation?


One answer I can give you, is a great web based control panel for services for Linux is called webmin. Go here to check it out:
