   Running a server will allow people to connect to your computer to play the game.  There are two different types of servers to run.  When running a dedicated server, you can not join the game from the same computer.  The other server type will allow you to play the game.  There are a couple files that can be tweaked to improve performance of both types of servers.  They are the server.cfg and the listenserver.cfg.  Both can be located in the Sierra\Gunman\Rewolf folder.  The following samples below are of both my listenserver.cfg and server.cfg files.  By using Notepad, these files can be edited to the server's preferences.

Another file that can be modified prior to running a server is the mapcycle.txt.  This file is used to determine which maps will be run in the server.  Again, simply edit with notepad to the maps of choice.

Under the Links menu, there is a link to a website called "I Am Half Life", because Gunman runs the same game engine as Half Life many of the server commands and console commands can be used..
