The one thing I forgot to address was the statement concerning hardware. >And people who are running different distributions od OS's across a veriety of hardware.>
I have 25 boxes that I run everything from Freebsd to RH Linux. I have boxes that range from old tyan tiger mobo's with dual p3 600's to 1ghz. Celeron 1.7 and P4 1.7s. As well as more modern dual xeon 2.4+ 2u servers. So yes, I have multiple variations of hardware and OS to test servers on. Bandwidth and network stability are also not in question. Im just tired of having what is needed and unable to use it due to lack of linux release. Hence my frustration :) ----- Original Message ----- From: "m0gely" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:51 PM Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Linux STEAM Server Download > Daniel Stroven wrote: > > > My question is why would should it be limited?
