Server 03 or xp?
#1
Hey guys' i'm getting my server goin again, which is gonna be used for clans wars and is gonna be ranked n whateva. the last one i had was running on xp which ran well... i also had apache server etc and was running ps3.

i started to build the new server under server 03 but it can't run in gui mode and i'm iliterate towards srcds commands, plus ps3 wont show up... beside the point...

i'm wondering if it'll be safe to run srcds on xp for high web traffic , all i'm having is problems with server 03...

hmmm well got all the front end and ps3 working, just ended up using xp... somthing blocking it on server 03 i guess... i'm just concerned about security issues under xp.

You should really just tough it out and go with the console instead of the GUI.
Everyone is like you when they first start out, they think that they can't get by without the GUI but it's just a few simple console commands away - plus, you won't be able to have your server start automatically with GUI I believe.

As far as your other problem goes - I've done testing on both server 2003 and XP for my dedicated server and I found that when tweaked properly, XP actually performed better. I can't really speak about security though, I'm not really a security buff but I haven't had any issues yet *touch wood* Wink

I use XP for my 10 slot server, works fine...running explorer (GUI) too (computer is also used for general tasks like web surfing)
