Install Server on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 64bit


Recommended Posts

WARNING! You are trying to run the server as root, don't! Get your own user for MTA and replace the "root" in the following lines with that username!

chown -R root:root *

chmod u+x mta-server

Stop telling shit, that will mess up the whole server !!! He needs to do:

chown root:root /root/multitheftauto_linux-1.3.0 -R

chmod +x /root/multitheftauto_linux-1.3.0/mta-server

Running an MTA server, or any kind of server that connects with the internet as a root is a bad idea, thats my opinion. If he wants to play it the hard way its not my business, and if you are running your server as a root its not my business either. And if running the server as another user would mess up the server, I'd have a serious issue and wouldn't be able to host anything. Seems like I don't.

MTA neither requests access to port 80 or to any port below 1024, nor does it use any other resource that would require root rights. You don't need to run it as root, so don't.

Unless of course you'll give everyone who visits your room the keys to your apartment.
