[olug] Gaming server for LAN party - suggestions?

[Brandon Lederer]

Dont use wine.  Ugggh that would be slow, and ppl will LET YOU 
KNOW.       There is NATIVE Linux Support for HalfLife (counterstrike, 
etc) Dedicated server, Return to castle wolfenstein, Quake's, 
Doom's..... that I know of.  Ive personally set up HLDS.  Been a long 
time though.
