Ahh, there is more to it if you are trying to set up a Arma2 server. Apparently one must find a secluded place in the forest, with good view of a waxing moon, there upon a rock aligned with the nameless star; you must sacrifice a goat* whilst chanting the true words!

"Iä! Shub-Niggurath! The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young!"

Only if you do this with regularity with true conviction shall your Arma2 experience be complete and bugfree.

-k

Edit
* Incidentally the goat must be a virgin as one unfortunate Welsh server admins discovered; the elder gods do not appreciate sloppy seconds.
