LOL, why, there is a native linux binary.

The Linux binary "thinks" the server is a mac with X11 forwarding

VNC Display?

1. You need a Window Manager/Desktop Environment running on the server (resourceproblem if weak cpu or vServer)
2. VNC may be a security leak <- I only use it inside LANs

Punkbusterproblems with Wine are 99% clientside only - as far as I know.

update: seems to work - some players on there!

Souds a little crazy, but ...
... the windows build seems to work on a cli linux server with wine and X11 forwarding.

1. install xauth on your server (apt-get ...)
2. edit the /etc/ssh/sshd_config and enable x11 forwarding
3. reboot or restart the ssh server
4. install wine, links2, xterm
5. login to your with ssh -X -l sth x.x.x.x -p 12345 -> X is with shift!!!
6. try xterm if a window opens on your desktop with xterm in it, forwarding worx
7. Download assist windows and unzipit
8. wine 25Assist.exe

hooah

hmm - lucky I - there's a 30 day eval of realbasic ...

As far as I understand the source - (My Basic skills stuck with CBM basic V2.0)
The Methods:
Instaa, updateme, getip, pbupdate, RunSrv, StopSrv,ReadQR in Assist
and
ReadQR in AssistQR
should be striped off the gui stuff into a commandline-friendly main() and packed into one .bin file, right?
did I miss dependencies?
can it be done with real basic?

Major - where's that piece of source?

CLI would be really fine

X-ssh-forwarding doesn't work for me - it opens a assist25 window wich asks me if I have a PPC CPU - the server definitely isn't a mac and then assist crashes with a nil pointer:-)

I worked on a pure CLI install with the original armyops-linux.run as base
you have to put
-> all *.so and *.ini from assist/Server to foo/System (from a linux assist install :-)
-> copy pb files to foo/System/pb

the console output of that server looks like the output in the assist server console window, but it doesn't appear on the server list there :-( 

maybe i forgot sth to put into foo/System

a shellscript witch is downloading and installing all needed parts for assist server would be a solution.

ty - Let's pray he'll read this thread!
