Re: internet gaming ???
Actually both I and Shrapnel have offered server space for a multi-game server (linux from me and windows from them). But the game is rather heavy in the memory/ram dept for running alot of servers at the same time for tcp/ip
There are threads here about what it would take for such a server. Some ironing out of webpage signup and file transfer mostly so that the games could be processed by a "host-and-quit" command. Not too difficult a project. A few folks took stabs at bits and pieces of it but no one has jumped up to take it on completely

You can find anything on the net.
If you look for it, and cant find it, then you found a hole. Fill it. This is Internet.
