Guest Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 sorry u probably heard this 100 times... But i,m a fast growing game server host,i have now 3 amd x2 boxes running all setup with different games and ftp Now is my question what do i need if i want to admin them all and pay per month? And would it be more "performance" if i would setup a amd sempron 2400+ as masterserver? i dont know exacly how it works but what would i need for that options?

Guest Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 And does the system need to be installed on the gameboxes too? ie: mysql database etcetc? thanks for your reply regards Zemmel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 As far as licensing you would need 1 Master License and the appropriate amount of remote licenses (1 for each server box) So if we go by the specs above, you would need 1 Master and 2 remote licenses. The Master server which house the wepages and the database, can also be used to host games on. However, if you plan on growing larger, a small sized dedicated box would work fine as your master server. You can also throw your Teamspeak or other voice servers on that box as well. The only box required to host the webpages/database is the master. Remote servers run a small footprint monitor service that communicates back to your master server. For pricing, you would be looking at something similar to below: 1 Master License - $15.95/mo 2 Remote Licenses - x $15.95/mo = $31.90 Total = $47.85/mo Or you could purchase the licensing which would be something like this: 1 Master Server - $200.00 2 Remote Servers x $150.00 = $300.00 Total = $500.00 Purchased licensing comes with 1 year of updates and support. You have the option to renew, or simply run it as is after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 That sounds very reasonable! Thank you for your explanation. 1 more question,i seem to have problems on port 80 with svchost.exe so had trouble last time trying to run a mysqldatabase and webservr application on port 80 How will the master server install, i need to setup a mysql database first? im sorry but i,m not really into webhosting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 MYSql database server should be installed first. MYSql does not use port 80, and actually will only be communicating via localhost. During the setup program you can set the website to run on any port you would like. I does not have to be port 80. You can do 81, 82, 8080... any port you would like. If you are serious about giving us a try, call our sales line, and Steve can set you up with a 20 day free trial. Then you can get things setup, configured and ask any questions to support. Our sales line is 1-866-369-7056 We only ask for some general info to make sure you are a valid game hoster. After the trial, if you wish to purchase, you simply order and you continue using what you allready have installed and configured. If you don't think our software is for you, then you walk away and owe nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
