Server Specs

I want to setup a dedicated server, but I was wondering what the minimum specs are, since I won't be playing on it. Does anyone think there would be problems running the server on a 600mhz PIII w 256MB Ram? Does the server need to be as beefy as the machine you play on? I want to run a server for a small group of friends, probably no more than 8 people.

Any suggestions?

A P-600 will easily support 8 players so you should have no problems there. Your bandwidth could become an issue though if your upstream is limited to 128kb.

A 550 Xeon is currently pushing my 14 player test server.

Cool, thanks Nomad, I'll try and setup my box this weekend. I'm on a cable modem, so I'm not sure how that will stack up, but I have a decent cable connection. BTW, do you use any speech tools, like Gamevoice or Battlecom?
