I'm not the most technically inclined, but I've spent my fair share with servers and networking.I come to you today with a issue(s) that is unresolved on my end, and I have resulted to having to post a thread on my findings. So without haste, I will begin the technical behalf of this thread.
-Thank you for participating.

I will begin by showing my process of creation:

1. Acquired server package (a2-server-1.11.87389.tar)
2. Installed fresh OA on laptop - Then proceeded to FTP to local Server tower.
3. Prior to OA directory being installed to (/home/****/arma2arrowhead) I then upload the server package to the same folder.
4. Unpacked the Package using the specific command - (tar -xjf a2-server-1.11*)
5. Then I use the command "./install" and then I run "./tolower"
6. Now I attempt to use the "./server" file. Here's where I run into issues, and where I am unable to proceed to continue. Here is my log file of me attempting "./server"
http://pastebin.com/NEV42w8i

I have troubleshooted alot of things in my life, but I simply cannot find the adiquate documentation to help me proceed. I ABSOLUTELY appreciate all the help I can get, and again thanks all to who participate. ]]> CyberWarriorsOnline http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?154591-(Linux-dedicated)-Errors-galore-server-(Server-setup) Help with Warfare Server basic config http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?154398-Help-with-Warfare-Server-basic-config&goto=newpost Fri, 03 May 2013 19:04:43 GMT I have Server running Benny's warfare missions max slots set to 24,

Problem: On Town activation there is huge desync spike, i'm guessing server trying to send to many packets at ones and kills overhead!
You can clearly see the spikes here, that was about with 5 people.

What i can do fix this?

Limit Maxmessagesent and increase packet size? Or other way around, iv been playing with 100's of different parameters and yet to find any solution.

I finally got a server up and running on my dedicated box after much flailing and quiet swearing at the screen in front of me (it knew what it was doing), however, it seems to be ignoring the config file altogether.

It looks like it's defaulting to 64 players, and is not using the supplied server name and password.

I'm not entirely sure what you need to help me, but this is the first two lines in the config parameters of the arma2oaserver file that was included in the linux server files:

ARMA_DIR=/arma2oa
CONFIG=/server.cfg

I searched on the forums for something similar to this problem, but I had no luck. I'm sure someone will find a post in half a minute and yell at me.

Thanks,

Edit: I think when I'm using the ./server command, it's not even looking at my arma2oaserver file, I tried to change the port, just to see if the text on screen would show the different port, but it stayed on 2302.
