TrackMania is the typical kind of server you'd find on Gandi machines. Following these instructions, you should be able to set one up in only a few minutes.
Installing an Apache sever is a necessary step, in order to manage your server via a web interface (if the Apache server is already set up, you can of course skip this step).
apt-get install apache2
You should see the following result:
Type Y to confirm the installation.
Done! The Apache server is installed.
You now need to download the necessary files to launch the server, by typing the following command:
wget http://slig.free.fr/TM/dedicated/TmDedicatedServer_2006-05-30.tgz
Once launched, wait for the download to reach 100%
Once finished, download the second file which is used to set up the web interface, if need be.
wget http://tmweb.123.fr/TMWeb.zip
Then, you need to unzip TmDedicatedServer_2006-05-30.tgz in its definitive emplacement.
tar xzf TmDedicatedServer_2006-05-30.tgz
And do the same for TMWeb.zip
mkdir /home/gandi/public_html/tmw cp TMWeb.zip /home/gandi/public_html/tmw unzip TMWeb.zip
Note:
Remember to install the tool enabling you to decompress zip files if you haven't already, using the apt-get install unzip command.This file must be modified so as to customize your server. This is where you give it a name, a password, admin accesses, maximum number of players, port…
nano dedicated.cgf
Note:
nano is a classic text editor for Linux (like vi, only more intuitive). To install it, type apt-get install nanoWe won't go into detail here, and recommend that you only change the password, name and number of players settings.
All that's left to do now is to go to the TmDedicatedServer folder.
./RunTrackmaniaNations.sh
