cheers guys. it's installing as we speak. FYI there is no ncompress package for suse but sym linking gunzip works a treat. Just to save some time i was wondering if there are any comments anyone would like to make about any differences or eccentricities between the windows and linux versions. From reading the rcon thread over the last hour it seems like the linux version is extremely powerful more so than it's windows brother.
