Hello All,

I have been trying to get a Quake server runnning in Linux..   I found this
port of Quake server to suit Linux.. 
unixded-1.0-i386-unknown-linux2.0.tar.gz but my may problem is I can get it
to work..

Now according to the instructions, I must install Quake to a DOS partition
while running DOS, so that it can unpack the files from it's CD-Rom using
it's dos install program..   After I have done this this I copy the Quake
to a Linux Partition, now when I do this using Samba from a networked
computer, I notice that all the DOS files that go on the Linux partition
are Executables.. am I ment to change these back to a read write file...  

Anyway to cut a long story short...  when I run unixded..  I get a error
message "findFile:can't find gfx/pop.lmp"

anyone have a clue what I am doing wrong..

THanks
