If a random player can get to the list, so can the metaserver. There are two ways to get on the list. 1) You ask us to put you on the list, and we edit our config files. 2) Your netrek server itself adds itself to the lists through a process called metaserver solicitation. In the docs directory on your server, look at the file called sample_metaservers and make a file called .metaservers in the netrek root directory. --Carlos V. _______________________________________________ vanilla-metaserver mailing list vanilla-metaserver at lists.real-time.com https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/vanilla-metaserver
