You all are hands down the best server / people out there." - Tomconno They were like (our) pings are so good and it's so smooth. after having (our) nfo server up for 30mins people started to flock to us. Registry is AWSOME, the forums are AWSOME, the tools available are AWSOME!!" - Flying-Squirrel "My ping ranges from 23-29 and I keep perfect fps as well as 0 choke/loss. If they get access and find nothing of value, they will still use your server to try and bruteforce other servers."NFO offers an outstanding service that is matched no where else in my opinion." - Minion Order Why? because they do not know what your server is. ![]() You will see many attempts to log into root from different IP addresses. ![]() If you open your auth.log located in /var/log. There are probably better security options, but this is a low value server. I use fail2ban and set up a 4 hour “jail” time for security. I keep all of my minqlx settings separated with clear documentation in my server.cfg. Most servers these days use the minqlx bot for server admin. My best advice is to make a very long random password and/or use a whitelist for access. Redis has poor security and is very fast. There are other setting to make in the nf to get this to work. A password is set up in the nf file and the QL server.cfg. It allows me to dig into the minqlx database, via the windows desktop, to look up information or if needed, make changes. Redis Desktop ManagerĪnother tool is the Redis Desktop Manager. It supports having multiple servers and custom command buttons. You can quickly check statuses, monitor without running QL and issue server commands. One of the best tools for QL admin is the Quake Live Remote Console. If people want to play Attack and Defend, I can shut down a server and start up warpAD in seconds. Notice I have 8 different servers available to run but only have 4 actually running. I can restart, shut down or spin up a new server at anytime without having to ssh into the vps. I can manage the servers from a web browser on my desktop or phone. I also use the built in webpage option in supervisor. You will notice some of them are commented out since they were moved to the other vps or were for past tournaments. This is what I use now.įor each launch script I have in the qlds folder, I put an entry in the nf. Supervisor is a really good process control utility to automate the process and make administration easier. Every time the server crashed, I would have to ssh into the vps to restart it manually. When I first started running QL servers, I used the linux utility called screen to make multiple instances of QL servers. ![]() All of the highlighted sh files are launch scripts for different servers I created over the years for our clan servers or tournaments. I prefer to use and individual server.cfg with a simple two line launch script for each one. Many admins keep one generic server.cfg and make a really long launch script with all the settings in it. ![]() Server.cfg and Launch Script.įor each QL server, I use a unique server.cfg in the homepath. I use putty to ssh into the server and winscp for file management. Do I need that many? Not really, but running 5 is the same work as running 1. Its nice to have a backup.īoth are two core machines that I can run 4 or 5 QL servers on each with several additional game type servers ready to start at a moments notice. On rare occasions a service may have technical issues that make one service unplayable. I rent two Linux servers from two different providers in Chicago, and. This is how I set up and organize my servers. There are many different ways to set up a QL server with multiple instances running. Plenty of people have asked me questions about hosting a Quake Live server over the years. Published by BOGDOG on AugAugust 11, 2020
