Hello all!

I have a problem and i hope that maybe here someone will help me solve it.

The thing is that when i start a dedicated server on my linux platform, an error is shown. The good thing about this is that in this version the error is visible, in previous versions nothing was shown.
Anyway the server starts properly and fter couple seconds this is printed in my console:

Exception EIdSocketError in module soldatserver at 0806EAEA.
Non-authoritative response (try again or check DNS setup).

I have no idea what that is. When i try to connect to this server from my pc ( the linux platform is on another computer -=192.168.0.1=-), a message appears that there is a request of connection and nothing happens.

Can any one tell me what is wrong? I have my ports forwarded... but that doesnt matter in this case.
Maybe there are some special packages needed to be installed on the linux for the S-server to work properly?

Hope to hear a lot of answers.

Finally I managed to make the dedicated server running...

This error still appears

Exception EIdSocketError in module soldatserver at 0806EAEA.
Non-authoritative response (try again or check DNS setup).

and makes me kind of angry.. but now i would like to know if
this is normal that soldatserver takes 23 mb of memory...
when I executed the top i was shocked...

PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND

18649 maciej 1 0 23888 23M 1100 S 0,5 50,9 0:00 soldatserver

Is this normal? Or maybe i have something not working well again?

If this is normal, than Michal has a lot of work to do,
maybe he should find someone who would write the soldat linux server in pure C
without using Borland programmes ?

I got a similar error when I had reporting to ASE on, turn that to 0 and try again, in solidat.ini:

ASE_Register=0
