| Linux will take a bit of extra work, due to the fact that some extra software is required, some of which must be compiled. Here's what I did on my Ubuntu Server 11.04 x86 VPS: | |
| Install the prerequisites: sudo apt-get install build-essential dosemu libglib2.0-dev libmono-system-data2.0-cil mono-gmcs mono-runtime pkg-config | |
| Extract dosutils.tgz, which has some useful old DOS utilities that may come in handy in DOSEmu: cd dosutils then tar zxvf dosutils.tgz then cd .. | |
| Compile pty-sharp, which adds pseudo terminal support to mono: tar zxvf pty-sharp-1.0.tgz then cd pty-sharp-1.0 then ./configure --prefix=/usr then make then sudo make install | |
| And lastly, create the user that GameSrv will run as: groupadd gamesrv then useradd -g gamesrv -s /usr/sbin/nologin gamesrv then chown -R gamesrv:gamesrv /gamesrv | |
| The linux instructions are incomplete, and probably will not work. But it is a start. |
