nwnx help please?
« on: February 08, 2011, 03:16:02 pm »


               I have read the nwx2 for linux..I feel the directions are very vague or Im not at the lvl of understanding it.
I have my mod on a host server running linux ...cannot login with programs like puddy.

I am just looking to make the mod reset every 4 or 6 hours.

If someone could step me through the setup  in great detail or advise a link.
 
I have vista on home comp with linux on other side ..would I need to use the linux to get correct files to the host server?

Anyways I am having a very difficult time comprehending what files are needed and where they go so any help for this is greatly appreciated .

               No, the operating systems can talk together, though you're probably better off using something like wget or depending on your linux distro.



I recently managed to compile nwnx (a 32 bit app) on a 64 bit ubuntu box and it seems to be running alright for the moment.  Honestly the best place to start is on the nwnx.org forums, maybe see what you can find about nwnx_easy.  Fireboar designed that setup for linux noobs, of which I am still one.



Really though if you just wanna reset the server every 6 hours or so, sounds like you could accomplish this with a shell script and a cronjob.

               Yes I am a total noob ..I think if I had the files ready to go and was told where to place them I could then comprehend how it works .  

Thanks for response.
