[Tutorial] Running Kal on Linux (ex. Debian)

[StOrmBlaZe]

Pretty easy though,
If u might have a server, (or VPS)
and it is running linux and u prob. want to run your own kalprivate 24/7
Just simply download 'wine' or use ' apt-get ' to install it,
and simply run your .exe's

PS: dont forget to download some sort of key also, else it wont work, and u will be screwed

No thnx etc. needed, was bored, and liked to share some info...

wine runs almost all .exe's and supports a crapload of windows-compatible files,
also.., debian can run itself 99% so, im just sayin,
and bytheway,
the emulator of DeathArt runs with mysql >.<

What you mean with Sort of Key?

Some sort of key , ill ook it up...

First, open a terminal window. Then add the repository's key to your system's list of trusted APT keys by copy and pasting the following:
wget -q

-O- | sudo apt-key add -


A repository's key



For Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10):
sudo wget

You must be registered to see links

-O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
For Ubuntu Feisty (7.04):
sudo wget

You must be registered to see links

-O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
For Ubuntu Edgy (6.10): *64-bit packages not available*
sudo wget

You must be registered to see links

-O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
For Ubuntu Dapper (6.06): *64-bit packages not available*
sudo wget

You must be registered to see links

-O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
For Debian Etch (4.0):
sudo wget

You must be registered to see links

-O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list

(Use these links for manual install.)


BytheWay, when u open a terminal (for example PuTTY) u don't really need to use sudo

in terminal type

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install wine

Don't think wine would be as easy to install like that, if u haven't downloaded the repos. key and put wine in your sources.list.

Did you actually try this or do you only think it will work... ODBC etc. are required too???

There is an MSSQL for linux.

@Vaxieus
Yep Wine owns pretty much,
If your linux keeps complaining just put all programs which are equal to wine on it, that will guarantee 90% that your linux is able to run windows files,

PS: If you have ubuntu, you don't need this, coz ubuntu standard runs 99% thats why ubuntu came out :juggle:

Re: [Guide/Tip] Running Kal on Linux (ex. Debian)

simply use VMware

1st pro:
You won't have to scare the 10% from "90% working" to 100%.
(you dont need DX for the kal server)


I read that some guys wanna run more than 1 server on 1 machine.
so VMware has the 2nd pro...
... that you are able to add as many virtual WinServer2k3 machines as u like to.
Means you don't need to change any db names or whatever.

3rd pro:
backuping and moving the server from one machine to another can't be easier.

contra:
1.You will need a pretty good system in case that you run more than 2 VMs at the same time.

2.You need a lot of HD space coz you would have to install Win2k3 as often as you want to run servers .

regards

You can run multiple servers on 1 pc so only 1 VMware installation should be enough.

Re: [Guide/Tip] Running Kal on Linux (ex. Debian)

We have linux server on 100mpbs dedicated line for few sites ... and I am interested in running kal server on it ... is it possible ? Did someone do it yet, with normal .exe files and emulator ? I run centos 5.x on server and wonder if there is any way to make this work

Mbps = Mega bits per second not bytes


divided it by 8 to get the MB/s
