Guest Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I know I should have searched around which I have but I just couldn't find it. Just a few questions: I understand the pricing now due to previous threads. When will the next version be out (estimate if needed) for LINUX OS (centos)? Would you choose Windows over Linux for gameservers? Please clarify. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hogie Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I know I should have searched around which I have but I just couldn't find it. Just a few questions: I understand the pricing now due to previous threads. When will the next version be out (estimate if needed) for LINUX OS (centos)? Would you choose Windows over Linux for gameservers? Please clarify. Thank you. I can hostly say that I'd rather run on windows than linux. I ran the Linux version for a while (during the beta test), and the tcadmin part was great, but the games just didn't perform as well as on the windows box. I even had people that played on both linux & windows servers we hosted remark on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 There is no date set for the release of our linux version. We do have a few people running it and testing. I am with Hogie. Use windows. Much easier to use, and you can host every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Does this panel support/integrate with WHM Autopilot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Are these panels hosted on your server for both leased/purchased plans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 TCAdmin does not integrate with WHM. We do however have a full Modernbill module that can be used for autosetup, billing, suspension etc.. The software is hosted on your machines. We do provide HELM based hosting accounts if usrs wish to have their webpages and database hosted for them.

Guest Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 great. I know what to do now. i really thought linux was better to for gameservers, better performance/quality but i guess im wrong. thanks for all your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogie Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 It might be, but it was running like crap for me... Even have the hacks I found for the kernel and such. I am a RHCE, so I atleast passed that knowledge test, so it wasn't like I was a n00b trying it on a servermatrix box. Now, for running 1 or two servers, for hobby, its great. I do that still, but I just dont feel like its worth it for my paying clients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ushdlew Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 What would you recommend? Windows 2000 or 2003? How about Windows XP? TC staff's opinions are also appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogie Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 We are running all windows 2003 servers. Its been very stable for us, and we still get support (over windows 2000, which is getting near end of life from MS). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 We recommend Windows 2003 Server Standard edition. It is by far the most stable windows version to date. Very easy to use and update. Windows 2000 Server will also work fine. We do not recommend using WinXP. It is bloated with features that are not needed in a server environment. Furthermore it is designed as a desktop computing OS not a multiuser server system. And WinXP has limitations such as a 10 user maximum connection limit on it's IIS (Internet Information Services) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ushdlew Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I'd like to know if it matters where I install the software? Say I'd like to use gameservers for 1 box, and another box for the to install/store the cpanel, would this work or does the cpanel have to be in the same box as the gameservers are hosted?

studeggle Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I recomend you seporate your game servers and your web applications as much as possible. You will get better performance out of your game boxes if they aren't running all the web software too. Yes it will work to have them on seporate machines.

ECF Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 You can keep your master server seperate. We actually suggest doing that if you can. You can however host games on your master server if you choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
