Need Help Becoming a server.

I've been looking around looking for info on how to turn my computer into a server accessable from the web, if anyone could help I'd greatly appreciate it.

If you know how to use IRC, you could try going in #RPGN at irc.magicite.net. There is also a javaapplet for this in http://www.rpgamers.net/Chat/ if you don't know how to use IRC. Ask there. Are you planning on mirroring for rpgn, or are you making this server for some other use?

Well...it's actually for some other use. I'm still not actually sure what mirroring for RPGN would entail.

For more info on rpgn mirroring you could PM Locke. http://205.209.144.11/forums/member.php?u=2

It sounds like he was asking how to make a server in general, not something for RPGN. We can't provide technical support for just any type of job, or we'd be here all day. Try looking up information about the type of server you are trying to run using google or something similar.

And that is why I asked whether he was planning on mirroring or not.

Well I figured as much. I was just expressing that we can't provide tech support for everyone who wants to run an FTP, its hard enough keeping up with our own group of goons sometimes. There are plenty of tutorials online as well as helpful manuals with most of the software nowadays. :p

Indeed so. "own group of goons" :P :D
