[Help] A Wow Server On Ubuntu?

[Zason]

I was wondering if there was a way to run Ascent on Ubuntu (Linux based OS)? Or is there some guide I missed about it? Besides trying to go through Wine... >_> Looking for it to run natively.

I have been over that wiki when I was using windows. God I feel like a nub... oh wait... I am. Thanks for stating the obvious. I will give it a go. Thanks Kirth >;+)

congrats, i was looking through this forum, and this post specifically made me register on the board.

Yes, you definitely can, as i am running one for my personal use right now. I can't explain exactly what you do, but i followed this (http://forum.ragezone.com/f114/ascent-red-hat-based-server-compile-setup-304027/) guide. Its written for Red Hat linux, but the commands you run, after all the yum package stuff, is the same. You'll have to do more than a little messing around to get all the dependencies (or at least i did) but it is possible.

as for a wiki... i never found one. but this is the first i've heard of it anyway.

NOTE: incase you didn't catch it, you have to compile from source.
