ok i have set up the server set up on my home pc and everything is ok but in order for my friends to get on am guessing i would have to leave the program running since am the server correct ?

also i have a web site and i was wondering if i could set up the server end on my web site server instead of my home pc as the server but i dont know how to do this at all. i do have ftp so i can upload this but dont know where to set it up at ? cn anyone guide me in the right direction.thanks in advance jem studio

Yes, you need to keep the TS server AND the PC hosting it running.

If you only have FTP access to your website, then you CAN NOT put your TS server there. You must have access to a shell account to be able to run the server.

Uh, ok :) Only if u don't care my english :D
First, take a look to the TS2 server log, (u can find it in the program files\ts2 dir, with .LOG extension) and write down the ADMIN and the SUPERADMIN passwords. Ok?
After this, open a TS2 client in a machine near u. Also the same machine, if u have the client installed there.
In the upper menu, select "connect" and a new windows appear.
In the left part, click with right button and select "add server"
Now, in the right part of the window, in the SERVER ADDRESS space type the address of your server (if it's in your machine, type 127.0.0.1), type a fantasy name for NICKNAME, in the LOGIN NAME space type ADMIN and in the USER PASSWORD space type the pwd u wrote down before, for ADMIN.
Then click on the "connect" button, at bottom.
Congratulations! U r the admin of your server :)
Now u can create all the channels u need, clicking on the upper menu "channels->create channels". Remember to mark "registered" if u want that channel remain permanent.

Wof... I hope this hour of typing helps :)
Ciao (bye), Mauro (greetings from Italy :) )
