Linux scripts for Rust Rust homepage: http://playrust.com http://playrust.com/dedicated-server/ By the date 2015-12-25 there is no native Linux dedicated server for Rust. It is possible to install the dedicated with some effort, but one of the libraries as unsolvable dependencies to GLX-functions. It seems this is a packaging/build problem of the Rust developers. The most (community) recommended way for a Linux dedicated Server is running wine as emulation. At least wine 1.7 is required. I'm using Archlinux, because it uses the latest possible wine version. The following scripts should help you to create a linux dedicated server including systemd start/stop stuff. I also included inside the startscript a few comments about command line parameters. To Install wine, you need to enable the "multilib" repository for pacman, see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Multilib Some informations about wine: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wine I installed the following packages for wine: wine wine-mono wine_gecko winetricks The wine application will run inside a x11 framebuffer version, which we won't directly access using "xvfb-run", this needs the package: extra/xorg-server-xvfb A complete list of the installed packages can be found in installed_packages.txt I'm running the server under an extra user called "rust", which you need to create as root user and set a password: useradd -m rust passwd rust Login via SSH to your new rust account rust@servername and do the following steps: # git clone https://github.com/MaStr/rust_dedicated_linux.git Get the Rust server, this URL may change, check rust homepage link above: # wget http://playrust.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Rust_Server.zip # unzip Rust_Server.zip Now prepare the server # ~/rust_dedicated_linux/wine_update_rust.sh The next step is to create a copy of the instance script with your details # cd ~/rust_dedicated_linux/ # cp wine_rust_instance.sh wine_rust_myserver.sh Edit and adjust your server settings: # nano wine_rust_myserver.sh Test the server instance, the startup may take a while: # ./wine_rust_myserver.sh To check what is going on, open a second session, change the folder, you will find a logfile named by your server instace file: # cd ~/Server/rustds/ # tail myserver_output.txt Maybe you can't find the server in your client's server list (community servers), so to connect to your server by hand, open up the console with the "F1" key. Enter the following line to manually connect to your server: client.connect <ip>:<port> ---- Prepare for automatic startup as a system service: (alternatively, see USER.txt) Create a copy of the service file and adjust it with your script name # cp rust.service rustmyserver.service # nano rustmyserver.service Switch to user root (su) and that place the file to your service folders: # cp rustmyserver.service /etc/systemd/system/ # systemct daemon-reload To start the server run # systemctl start rustmyserver.service To enable autostart # systemctl enable rustmyserver.service The service-file will restart the dedicated server if it fails unexpectetly. ---- RCON tools I wasn't able to find a command line tool for connecting to the server, so you need at least a windows tool like "Rusty" for remote administration: http://oxidemod.org/threads/rusty-server-rcon-administration-tool.543/page-30
