Im new to all this server running and stuff since i only normally play on renegade, but today i discovered that i can host 32 player games so i want to start my own server. So i have some questions to ask which im not quite sure on

Firstly... is there anyway of downloading BRenBot for servers anymore?
Do you have to leave your comp on while running a 24/7 dedicated server?
What actually is a dedicated server, i have a rough idea but i need to know exactly?

(Thanks to anyone who wastes their time answering my questions :oops: )

Forget it !!!

When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter then "Yes"

Programming is like sex: one mistake and you have to support it for the rest of your life

The dedicated server runs in a console window and needs to run 24/7. It will use most all of the resources (CPU) of the server, as well as bandwidth when full. For brenbot go to http://www.brenbot.com.
