hi everybody

I'm a new member on WHT and i appreciate it a lot.


I want to ask you some questions witch I'll be happy if i get the responses xD

I have a dedicated server with softlayer.com with this configuration :

Single Processor Dual Core Xeon 3060 - 2.40GHz (Core2Duo) - 1 x 4MB cache

Ram: 4 GB DDR2 667

Uplink Port Speeds: 1000 Mbps Public & Private Networks

Public Network Port: 1000 Mbps public uplink

Private Network Port: 1000 Mbps private uplink

Public Bandwidth: 2000 GB Bandwidth

Primary IP Addresses: 1 IP Address

Secondary IP Addresses: 4 IP Addresses

Disk Controller: SATA Disk Controller

First Hard Drive: 250GB SATA II

Second Hard Drive: 250GB SATA II

Lockbox: 1 GB Lockbox

Operating System: CentOS 5 (32 bit)

Control Panel Software: Plesk 8 (Latest) - Linux - 30 Domain w/ Power Pack

Monitoring: Host Ping

Intrusion Detection & Protection: Network IDS/IPS Protection

Hardware & Software Firewalls: APF Software Firewall for Linux

VPN Management - Private Network: Unlimited SSL VPN Users & 1 PPTP VPN User per account


can I host in the same time my websites and build a counter strike 1.6 server in the same dedicated server?

If yes how can I do it?

and is my configuration able to turn it? with how much slot connected simultaneously?

PS : my web site's bandwidth is about 500 GO / month

i know that my question is probably stupid but I'm a beginner in this domain.

Thank you in advance for your responses and advices :D

Yeah I'd say its possible depending on how much load you're getting from your websites atm. Its been years since I ran a CS 1.6 server but I can't imagine the CPU resources have changed too much. If you have little traffic then a full 32 slot CS server will be perfectly reasonable. I am aware that plesk has an addon that supports the handling of gameservers, you could buy that or do it via command line.

thank you for replying, and if i don't want to buy the plesk's addon 8$/month can i setup it my self in my Centos 5 32bit OS using shell?

It sounds like you have root access so yes, you should be able to install/run the game server from the command line shell.
