riseofwar Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 Hello,Since in not really wanting to host the server on my home computer, I was wondering how I would be able to host it on a [VPS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_server)… Anyone know who or has a link to a tutorial on how to set up a Eclipse server on a [VPS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_server)?Thanks!

Robicus Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I have my own VPN (Virtual Private Network) which is a dedicated server - not sure if that is the same thing as that wiki page was describing. The wiki page was talking about partioning different servers and blah blah so I'm not sure about that. But it also mentioned dedicated server and that is also what a VPN is.My VPN allows me to connect remotely to the server (which is physically located in a warehouse in Canada) and then you can use a FTP program to send the files over to it. Once you have files on the server its just a matter of opening and running the Eclipse server. Of course, you'll have to set-up the settings such as IP and perhaps port fowarding but yeah… not sure if that was exactly what you were looking for.Also, investing in a dedicated server like this is kick-ass but it costs me a pretty penny (little over 1,200 a year). But I have a killer connection and 100Mbps port speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godlord Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 You could install Eclipse on a virtual private server via remote applications like:http://winscp.net/ (Windows VPS).YUM (Linux VPS, check your software repository).Some VPSes may use some other software though but most of them, if not all, mainly use (S)FTP.Regards, The Nameless One.

Rithy58 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 @riseofwar:> Yeah, anyone know how if this is possible??Ummmm, I don't know. It seem that vpswow.com is Linux/Unix cause of the Penguin. But Installing a Server on a VPS or VDS is a good idea. Your player will have lag-free game and you won't have an problem with your ISP when running a server.That's lead to a question. I think some ISP company does not let you host any server unless you bought a Business Class or Static IP, right?Rithy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
