Four Core Server, with 4Gb Ram, 10Gb Bandwidth.

How many servers do you think we could host?

2 servers. It depends on the Ghz of the cores.

By now, DayZ server does not handle multi-threading very well. In fact, it uses 2 threads heavily (100 %CPU on one core, 70% on the other, with 50 players).

So you can host 2 dayz instances, but your server will be overloaded.

Hello there.

I'd like to have an officiall Answer on a certain Problem.

Since rocket considered disconnecting to avoid death an exploit are server Owners allowed

to ban such people from their Servers or do we just have to deal with that behavior?

This sounds an awful lot like a home computer. If it is. you wont be approved because of your network.

Yeah.. well because it is :P .. Wasn't sure If it could be done from a Home PC or not.. I figured if it ever could be, mine would have enough power to do it. and yeah my network isnt 100mbps... more like 45 mbps Dowload.. and like 25 mbps Upload... guessing that wont make the Cut?

[facoptere 180]

you need 15 Mbps upload, and less for download. Are you sure you have 25 Mbps upload? You have an FTTH connection and the contract to do that ?

I have seen many Servers that Kick players that go over 150 ping. IMO thats what I would do as well.

In all honesty it was like 22.## i didnt look too too into it it was just an online Broadband testing thing

My roommate owns a card/tabletop gaming (and other generally "nerdy" stuff) store in town and he and the co-owners have been looking into expanding to running game servers for hosting servers for Minecraft, MW3, BF3, etc. for customers. While not a co-owner of the store myself, I'd like to help them start by getting permissions for a DayZ server, as I'm not sure what the waiting period is like. We don't have a server box set up yet, but we would absolutely spend the money for an extremely stable rig, in addition to signing up for a T1 connection for the store.

Long story short, how long does it take to get permission to run a server, and do I physically need the server box set up and ready to run it before I can gain permission?

Thank you for your time, and keep up the great work on the mod!

lol thanks, tell that to Mr aussie stig over there, who went into a rage and started calling me every name in the book for kicking him because his ping was 187 on my server

not a lot of people with respect out there nowadays =/

Dear Matt(Antipop) and community

As a developer myself, I am shocked to see such rules regarding the servers. Your arguments is clear to me, and understandable, but to ban IP or even IP ranges dismay me.

If it is in your interest to encourage those rules, then limit the settings possibilities for your mod instead of placing the burden on the server host; Clearly this could both benefit you by more people felling secure about hosting a server, but also remove the need for you to enforce these rules.

Myself, I see a need to avoid being "detected" by you. So if I didn't make the server correctly or if some whining 12 years old came cursing on the server, threatening me to report the server if i kicked him for cursing; then would I not be banned due to a mistake or two.

In other words, if I now had a few friends, but every other IP's except for the ones required to play with them was IP blocked on my computer; I assume that no one would feel the urge to ban my IP as none except from my friends could see the server.

Clearly this is the best way for me to test the server, while avoiding your judgment. And clearly I wrote it here both to let you know about it, but also other people like me who may be in dismay regarding your "Your servers, but our mod; so we ban" statement.

(feel free to ban this ip range related to my forum ip, i'm on campus and can't host anything here)

-Hijack .....

my Verizon FiOS is 35/35 ....... running wide open servering up 300 + Torrents it runs at 42 /42 [28 times the speed of a T-1].... 24 hrs a day 7 days a week .......

...... 3 Tb ; 6 drive, RAID 5

[facoptere 180]

RatPatrol, you have a very uncommon internet contract, but I was talking to Boomerg11. He thought to host a DayZ server at home, and with standard providers, it won't make it.

If you plan to host a game server among other torrent servers, I hope you planned to configure QoS on your router.

That's a home PC. They won't let you host.

You're going to at least need a valid IP address that you will use the computer on. It's going to take a business line, and unfortunately T1 doesn't even come close to cutting it. I believe the minimum now is 100/100.

His best bet IMO would be to build a 1U-4U server and get it colocated, then submit a request for whitelisting.

Me2 join to question, same situation.

[fuzzy4ever 22]

So what exactly prevents DayZ from running on linux? Buddy in my clan has a very good unlimited bandwidth linux server and is wondering why that is. Arma itself has official linux server files, and since DayZ is considered a mod why can't it run?

Linux isn't officially supported but it runs fine using WINE.

[fuzzy4ever 22]

So while it may run, there will be no technical assistance?

[Orcworm 18]

Pretty much, though I imagine there's quite a few others running it under Linux too.

[KField86 237]

so 65 M/bt upload isnt enough and our clan cant host from a home server what is that BS? sorry for sounding like an ass but my buddy just shelled out almost $700 for new cores just so he could host this game. something is not right here

Your buddy should of done a bit more research before shelling out that kind of money. :/
