Modification Help / is it possible to connect blockland/vce to ms sql database? if so, how?

« on: October 17, 2012, 05:50:56 PM »

I have just ordered a vpn ms server and I'm wondering if its possible to connect blockland or rather vce to a ms sql server. This would make saving items and client variables more reliable as it would be saved in a table so even if the games server wen't down the clients current data would still be on a seperate table, it would then be easy to keep a record of players who have joined, I't would also allow a website to be made where players can login and view their stats.

Can anyone help me with this?

Help / anyway of having a blockland server on a ubutnu server without needing a GUI?

« on: September 27, 2012, 11:38:55 AM »

I got an ubuntu web/samba/email/pxeboot/minecraft/ftp/print server and would like to add blockland to this but can I do this without installing the lightest of GUI's because even those use resources and if I wanted a GUI I would use a windows server but a gui is just pointless on a server in most cases

It would cost him so much more to set up the internet connection, constant power supply, staff and cooling system to host from a legitimate data center

Not if you had a good few hundred at a higher price, separate to the ones used for blockland.

i get a server with the specsfor $5 a month. rip off.

Yeah I got a web server for that sort of price too.

Check out these companies who are renting out dedicated linux (mainly ubuntu) servers...

No, 1 for all customers.

I thought so, you would be in a hell of a lot of debt for renting out dedicated servers at that sort of price lol. Unless you had them hosted from your own premises.

No, a dedicated server.

For the customers? That is cheap. What do you use windows small business server 2008 R2?

You really fail to understand what this is.

Is it a windows vps your using for your blockland hosting?

Not at all.
Stop it.

That is just one example though.

I don't think running a stuff OS on a server is good either. :V

Which is why facebook uses linux servers which is what ubuntu is and which is why google uses modified ubuntu servers?

No you have the whole server you have all of it not just blockland and actually an ubuntu server has no gui (can be installed though) so you get better use of resources as well as this if it were windows then your looking at like $80 a month. windows dedicated (and dedicated as in you have all the hardware at use) is very expensive.

This is actually a VERY reasonable price compared to whats out there.

Kalphiter is almost 1/4 of the price.

Well that's probably on a VPS server and this isn't just for blockland, this can be used for email, webhosting, other game servers, anything.

I'm going to be renting out my ubuntu server as I no longer have any use for it (didn't in the first place). Its not the best specs for a server, it has an amd athlon II X3 CPU, 3GB ram and a 500GB HDD.

You can use it for what ever you want and I declare that I will not look through your files.

The internet has a dynamic ip so you will need to connect via this host http://dvdevelopers.homelinux.com (unless you want to pay out for another)

The server is UK based.

Payment will be a monthly paypal invoice (no contract but payment must be within 7 days of invoice being sent )

upnp is enabled on router but if ports need forwarding you will need to email me to let me know.

If your interested it is $20 £13 €16  a month.
