Administration

From TinyMUX

Administration refers to the work that goes into setting up, configuring, and maintaining a server.

• Downloading the source code or binaries,
• Unpacking and compiling,
• Setting specific config parameters,
• Applying patches that are released later,
• Controlling who can connect to the server.

Some of these tasks are supported by various scripts while some tasks are accomplished manually.
