Well we cant help you with your linux server. Especially since I am not as familiar with the debian distro.

The first thing you need is a working Apache/php/mysql setup. But if I were you, I would wait till the .30 release which is eminent once PJ gets back. Otherwise your going to have to deal with compatibility issues with the older software.

Everyone has thier own preferences. I prefer the Fedora Distro. But the game should run on most, at least the new version will.

Finally, edit your crontab. Crontabs on unix/linux allow the system to periodically update values in the game, including
adding turns and degrading sector defenses.


i know that i shuld w8 for 3.0 but when do you think it will be released before the end of next week? because me and my friends want to start playing

Install a copy of webmin. That will make your life much easier. It is a web based administration control system.

Note: You will need to run older versions of PHP and Mysql if you are going to install the older aatrade. .30 will be out shortly after the first of the year unless any major bugs poke thier heads up during the initial game restart.
