I got it to work. No permission errors, just missed something that wan't explained in step. Was able t log on initially as telnet localhost 4000 but I can't get back in. I have tried telnet 127.0.0.1 4000 and entering my ISP but I get a timeout error or connection refused. I went into firewall and opened port 4000, but no luck.

I don't want to pay for a server until I at least have an alpha version available for testing.

Which mud server is $5 a month. I was going to set up my own server eventually.

.....

I read the documentation at circlemud, typed /bin/circle & to restart mud and was able to connect. What do I need to do to keep my mud up on my computer in between seesions, or am I going to have to restart everytime?

I just found FrostMUD.com, supposedly a free hosting site. Anyone know anything about this? There is an addition to the TOS from 2009. I wrote the owner to see if he is still doing this. Heh he, he is in my state.

Dune offers basic hosting for $6 amonth.

On average, what kind of bandwidth am I looking at maximum? Not with a lot of players. If it is successful, I can always upgrade.
