If you do this a lot, you probably should have a static IP set on the server machine (if you haven't already done so). Make sure the IP is outside any DHCP range set on the router.

Restarts via TimeLimit or KillGoal do not fix ghost players. I've experienced this plenty of times.

Only completely stopping and restarting the server will fix this... exactly what Hunter's proggy does.

Also, the servers were stopped and restarted completely every 24 hours (it might need this 'cold restart' to be done every 12??). The ghost players aren't really a problem unless in a team game (i...

You'll need to read up on RAID. And check out the manual for the MOBO ( http://www.tyan.com/support/html/manuals.html ).

It is not illegal to grow tabacci (in the USA). Only the wacky kind is illegal.

However, it is quite difficult and needs precise conditions to grow.

I think it prefers hot tropical conditions (Cuba comes to mind). I've spotted many tobacco farms in North Carolina.
