Macintosh server possibilities?
This is a cry for help. My situation is, at least somewhat, unique. I am stationed on a submarine in the US Navy. Several of my friends an I are interested in a LAN EQEMU server, which I have agreed to host.
I have read the guides and downloaded all of the key ingredients that I believe I need, however... The only computer that is available to be a dedicated server for us is my iBook G4.
So my question, indeed my plea, is if anyone has successfully run a server from a macintosh platform? It seems as if it should be possible to run the server, as long as I do not attempt to play on the server machine itself. All of the clients will be windows-based.
If anyone has any idea on how to make this work, or if it has been disproved as a viable option, I would greatly appreciate a point in the right direction. I am willing to wipe my iBook and load Linux onto it, but that is another ball of wax altogether.
To complicate matters, I do not have very many days in which to get this working before I ship out, once again, and am separated from the internet by tons of seawater.
Many thanks, in advance,
-A desperate, salty sailor
