DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: VMware's $100,000.00 Challenge



I thought I would submit a note about the "Game Server Appliance" that I put together for the VMware Challenge. This really is not a suprise to those that have seen my other posts here. My thanks to those who offered to help. It uses Damn Small Linux and the Linux version of the Call of Duty 2 Servers by Ryan C. Gordon. It was included with his permission.

It does require that you own a copy of the Call of Duty 2 game. This may get it disqualified, however keep this thought in your mind, "There are over 12 million game players in the United States alone." However only about 200,000 - 400,000 IT personel in the US. (Depends on where you look as to how many there are.)

Simply boot it up, insert the DVD, type in a password & server name and then have a fully functional COD2 Server to play your games on. I have also got 4 other servers functional,  I will be putting together different packages as interests develope.

You can download it starting Sat. 5-26-06, remember it is a cable modem and will max at 69k upload speed.

Current link bit torrent is up and running, Check it out.  This is it 3 downloads in two days I think OK.
