True fans of arma2 use programs like Addon Sync to find servers. They have no issues finding any of the servers I haven't even looked at the browser list in years.

Roger that thanks !! yeah remove is like blank password

there way to disable passwordAdmin in the cfg file ? Searched forums couldn't find good answer -I tried passwordAdmin = \"$RCONPASSWORD\". but still anyone just log in Admin with blank password -Also tried comment it out and still log in blank password Seems people can some how pull the server.cfg easy enough. Battleye they dont seem be able too so we use it for admining

THanks OK I try that again, I did early own but couldn't get it to work. Now I have better grasp on how everything works Still wish could disable it :) I'll try placing it in the battleye folder

Linux you only need 1G of ram, but we dont have the latest battle eye features. I host 50 players with 1.5G

ok sounds like it will be a while then someone will port it over. Thanks anyways. We linux admin's are use to waiting, so no worries Good news for Servers Admins thanks for sharing !!!

going be supported on Linux servers ?

are you using a .cfg file with something like this class Missions { class CanBeAnything // name for the mission, can be anything { template = "takilifecivilwar.takistan"; // omit the .pbo suffix difficulty = "regular"; // difficulty: recruit, regular, veteran & mercenary as specified in *.Arma2profile // param1 = 2; // dress // param2 = 26; // age // class Params // { // Name = 2; // WorkPlace = 0; // Friend = 1; // }; }; }; If not then please review this first http://www.kellys-heroes.eu/files/tutorials/dedicated/ little outdated but a great starting point

if this is dayz need go dayz forums. just guessing because your name If its not need a ton of more info. Like configs,OS,mods, game server logs, etc ,etc

I've searched the pbo file feels like 100 times, but cant locate which file might control the load screen. Searched the forums didn't see or missed it >>This is the load screen picture after you select your side and waiting to spawn. I know I'll feel stupid when someone tells me where it is...laugh Joining different servers I've seen custom load screen so I know I'm not crazy, I hope LOL

thanks GünteR !!!!! very very helpful !

Same here, looking for good script example with food and water.I know how modify one but not write from scratch.

haha thanks duh duh duh I guess this is it loadScreen = "loading.paa"; Thanks again mate I kept missing it because was the first line LOL

untrue running 60 man server with 1.5G dedicated RAM. NOT all virtual servers are shared resources. They can be dedicated. The SAN is faster then any physical server anyways. Heck of allot more I/O speed ZERO LAG, players brag how smooth my linux server runs all the time Even when server full server only uses about 1.2G of ram

Thanks Disorder, I'm going give this a try next day or two

Been diging around and dont see a option for Linux when comes to a "Persistent Database"? So far I've only seen the windows version Thanks

thank you thank you !!!!, I guess wine does have a use if someone wants to use it :) laugh

Yeah I've seen very strange bugs that only seems to happen on linux servers. Nothing major just strange and funny sometimes We currently running 1.62alpha and shocking stable, my server been up 24 + hrs no restarts yet. Really hoping arma3 server supports Linux fully. So much cheaper to host one ---------- Post added at 18:10 ---------- Previous post was at 18:06 ---------- HAHA man your reading my mind or something ? http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?139054-ArmA2oa-Persistent-Database-for-Linux No issues with any missions, mods, or scripts but I've asked the same question today. I thought for sure someone would have ported the persistent database features to linux, but I haven't found it.

1. No idea, but I'm guessing yes because the Linux community is just as big as windows 2. yes sometimes months, arma3 might change 3. if anything I can get better logging out of linux then windows 4. No, 28 years into supporting 1000's of servers in enterprise datacenters. UNIX wins every time. Windows 2008 is very impressive, but still memory hog 5. Dont need it When comes to performance Linux servers out performs windows with less resources. However, this game seems to be more designed for Windows servers out the box. I have a dedicated Linux server with only 2G of ram that can host 60 players with no lag. I've supported 60 even with only 1G of RAM just as a test. If your not comfortable with Linux cmd line and tuning then I would go with Windows.

Does this work with Linux Arma2oa1.62 alpha ? I saw line "BE Server v1.156 in combination with the latest OA 1.62 beta server." :( guessing no which stinks

hahaha "like trying to understand women" I dont see what your seeing in this screen shot you made http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/8095/markersomg.jpg . Only when I connect to dedicated server I see it. When I try edit > preview or just load MP mission I dont see it. Use to see those markers but now I don't. So that tells me something wrong on my end. hummmm

Strangest thing now. Playing the mission everything still there and working, just not on the "m" 2d Map. No Markers When I try edit mode, map shows all markers, click "preview" or start a new game with mission "m" map empty again no markers. Also when add new objects to mission now not showing up in game. Reloaded aram2oa today didn't seem to help. Deleted profile didn't seem to help Downloaded fresh cache copy of the pbo from 3 different dedicated servers running same mission didn't work 2d map still blank no markers Thoughts ? this is nuts laugh...

http://www.2shared.com/file/JdpWzl71/anarchyinthetktakistan.html did a fresh download, copy to folder unpacked. then moved unpacked version of the pbo to profile/mpmission/ Loaded select edit see markers, then I try preview no markers on map. If load the pbo in game/mpmission still see no markers. also I add a new non player object and preview object does not show up

Tried everything you listed all the above, pbo unpacked, repacked, everything I could think ok. I use be able load multiplayer edit mission and preview test and markers showed up. Now only see them in edit mode. save it, test it, pack it.2d map empty no makers. But mission work Didn't use have this problem, all markers would show up like they suppose to so you know like where a atm is on the 2d map

any non playable items, like H-barrier etc. none show up in game now after adding. But the real strangeness is why are the markers all gone in 2d map "m" view ? If I play on dedicated server with the same mission markers show up.
