==Getting the server==
Servers for Soldat come in two types: dedicated and non-dedicated. This page focus on dedicated servers. The latest dedicated server can be downloaded from [http://soldat.pl soldat.pl], zipped. This zip has all necessary files to run the server in Linux or Windows. To unzip you can use 'unzip <filename>' in Linux or [http://www.7-zip.org/ 7-zip] in Windows. The executables for each OS are soldatserver and soldatserver.exe respectively.

==Configuring==
There are three key files that you must edit & configure before running the server: [[mapslist.txt]],[[soldat.ini]] & [[server.ini]].

==Starting the server==
To start the server in the background in Linux you can use either [[Command_line_arguments|-d]] or nohup.

Using the line below will detach the server from your current terminal and log all errors to nohup.out while redirecting normal (non-error) output to /dev/null (nowhere)
nohup ./soldatserver > /dev/null &

The line below will do the same, but put errors in errors.txt.
nohup ./soldatserver > /dev/null 2> errors.txt &

This will fully background the server
./soldatserver -d

If you are having problems when starting up the server, make sure you have the right permissions. In windows, run as administrator, in Linux, use chmod.
chmod u+wx ./logs/kills/
chmod u+wx ./BattlEye/
chmod u+wx ./scripts/

==Troubleshooting==
If your server starts up but no one can join, then read [[Ports|this]] and check your connection with [[Testing|this]].

==Managing your server==
There are two ways to administrate your server: By adding IPs to the [[remote.txt]] file, or by using the [[Soldat.ini|admin password]] to login to the server using [[Commands|/adminlog]]. If you are [[Commands|adminned by IP]] then you will only be able to perform commands while playing in the server. On the other hand, if you know the admin password you can perform [[raw commands]] or use any of the [[Soldat admin tools]].

==Bandwidth & Memory Usage==
Both depend on the amount of players (or bots) the server is currently hosting. You can use [[Bandwidth|FliesLikeABrick's bandwidth calculator]] to check on the first one. The average RAM a server uses depends on several factors: maps,logs,scripting,players,etc. An average server uses around 10 MBs of RAM, while a server with a bunch of scripts and big custom maps with logging can use more than 50 MBs.
