Hi everyone,

well it must be Christmas. I'm performing a study that
looks into the use of Satcoms for broadband access and
in a meeting it was stated that Gaming wouldn't work
because of the link latency.

I've got a Satellite link emulator (running on FBSD)
and I've been asked to check it out.

So basically I've got to play some network games and
see what happens ;-)

I'm not a gamer (apart from a bit of Doom or Heretic)
so my question. What games are there that run on
FreeBSD that allow multiple participants to interact
etc over a network? Can I set up Heretic for multiple
people? If so, how? Does it all sit on a central
server?

many thanks

Gavin
