David Icke Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 Hi Ive got a free for all server running, and its running well with lots of visitors. I wanna test my limits and run a duel server (sabers only) with a 4 player maximum side by side with it, computer power isnt a problem 2 cpu`s and plenty of ram. but connection is just 512kb upstream 1500kb down. what options do i need to consider running the second server. I got max rate set to 6000 is this too little?. how do I specify a different port for it, any info from someone who knows about any issues regarding running 2 servers will be apreatiated if anyones got a duel server.cfg they wanna share , ill be well chuffed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatrixCPA Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 All you need to do to set the server to a different port is to specify which one to use via +set net_port 280xx in your command line before your execute the server.cfg. One thing to be careful about is that if you're running the server as the same user that is running the first server, they will share the same jk2mpconfig.cfg. That could cause some problems if you have settings from one that aren't "reset" by the other. Anything you set in one that isn't set by the other differently will be "shared". As far as bandwidth goes, you didn't specify what player capacity you have on your FFA server. I'd figure the maxrate of 6000 should be fine and still save you some bandwidth. Which OS are you running? Either way, you might consider setting up some network logging so you can tell just how much bandwidth you are using at various times. I find that information quite useful.

David Icke Posted May 2, 2002 Author Share Posted May 2, 2002 thanks for reply,,, its linux OS,, ffa server is max 12 but 3 reserved for private use,, am i right in thinking that i only need to specify one port, then open one port up on my router,, i think i remember opening more than 1 port for the ffa server?... ill look into the network monitring think,, a few good ones out for linux i think, cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatrixCPA Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 I use MRTG to do my log analysis. It's not perfectly accurate, but it gives you a good idea what's going on and when. As far as the ports needed open, you probably opened up the full range of ports the JK2 needed and it should work out just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke Posted May 2, 2002 Author Share Posted May 2, 2002 look like my router wont let mrtg examine it,, its kust a little hardware thingy with little software on it.. you know a good one that measures outgoing trafic from the interface, that would give an idea about needed bandwidth?

MatrixCPA Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 MRTG can be used to monitor an interface as well. You can pretty much use it to monitor anything you want. I have it setup to monitor network, memory and cpu utilization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KandyFLip Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 If you're running the servers from the same user account, then you should delete any lines in jk2mpconfig.cfg that differ between the two (or empty it out completely) and then change the permissions so the user running the servers can't read or write the file. Or just run them from different user accounts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke Posted May 3, 2002 Author Share Posted May 3, 2002 im gonna run it as totaly different users, with a totaly different files, saves any confision,,,,, has anyones got a nice basic working duel server.cfg and wanna share it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatrixCPA Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 You'll need to change the server info, obviously.
