Make sure your have "+set dedicated 1" on your command line. It should look something like this: quake2 +set dedicated 1 +exec server.cfg If you don't put the "+set dedicated 1" on the cmdline it will run at 100% CPU from my experience. I have it running here at about 5% CPU with no users on the server. +-- http://www.download.net ------------- http://www.thecore.com --+ | Shaun M.
