Hosting a server

[Fandiil]

Im trying to get information on creating my own LAN server, but I want it pretty much just like PCRPG server.  The simple solution would be for me and my friends to log on the actual server, but being in Iraq...internet isnt so great.  Plus the fact, we only have 3 computers with internet working.  Any help on setting up a LAN server would be much appreciated.

I don't think you'll be able to host a server just like PCRPG. It's a modded form of the base tRPG and I don't believe that Particle has released it for others to use.
There are many posts here, though, that describe setting up a server to play on, and there are other versions of tRPG that are available to play.

blah, screw other versions lol.

well thats actually the least of my problems as of now.  i just learned Tribes cant work on Vista.  Which blows.  I dont have the resources to revert back to XP...or even create a seperate partion and put XP on it.  

Anyone have this problem and get it solver?  Any help would be much appreciated.

You can get it to work with Vista, though I have heard varying levels of success. Some people have no problems (once they get it fixed), others never really get it working very well.
