Perfectly. I ran a few Linux CSS and TF2 game servers a while back and its really easy. There's a lot of resources online.

[DrenDran]

It is done, my order has been placed and confirmed. Within a day they should set it up.

Can't you host it off your computer?

[Kalphiter]

ew, weakest model

[DrenDran]

Can't you host it off your computer?

Actually, yeah, I've hosted blockland servers off my comp-

Oh, you mean cause my pc's now linux.
Hell, I didn't even notice that. Though to be honest, since I selected Linux steam instead of just wine'ing the regular windows steam, it won't let me download anything.
Though to be fair the source server downloader thing is actually a separate program.

ew, weakest model

33% more ram and like 10 times the hard drive space of my old host

[Kalphiter]

The low clock speed may be a trade-off.

Next model would've been better.

It's only for hosting.
Granted I did install firefox on it, and I 'could' browse on it. But since the server would just have to send me the information back, it'd just be a proxy, and just as slow since it has to go though my computer.

Cause like, who needs their own 100% uptime 250mbits/sec private proxy. pfftSure, I'll post the tekkit server IP in a sek.

No one.
But who wants one is the real question.
OO OO ME!

I hope it's not too bad.
Doesn't seem too bad.
Problem is my last host only gave cpu in terms of "cpu units" and didn't actually specifiy what I was buying/renting.
So that makes compairing very hard.

Additionally I don't want to spend too much since I don't quite trust this company yet.

Sounds like something wound or glass could use far more than me.

So how much worse is this than the AMD Athlon X2 II?

[DrenDran]

After two days they finally acknowledged my order, just to say they need me to send them pictures of my drivers liscense and credit card.
