Hello all,

I ve set up a frreciv-server 2.4.2 thanks to MGU. This server is launched by script launched by a crontab. And it s working very fine. But I do not have access to the freeciv-server command line interface.
With the freeciv-client I can access to the configuration database of the server, but I do not have a direct access to the console server.
Is there a way to access to the freeciv-server console by a specific remote client ?

Thanks

You can send commands to the server via the chatline -- any line prefixed with a slash is a server command. E.g., "/read civ2civ3" or "/start". (Of course your client must have appropriate privileges to execute any command.)

If you're already running server from cron, you might be interested about pubcaz when I get it fully available. Repository is in https://github.com/cazfi/pubcaz

Hi all,

Thanks to you JTN, it works, so easy. But I do not have enough imagination to use the chat console as server console.
Thks Cazfi, I ll have look a this.

It's great that you are working on a system for running Freeciv servers on a public server. pubcaz will probably share a lot of functionality with publite2,
which is used by Freeciv-web and is hosted here: https://github.com/freeciv/freeciv-web/ ... r/publite2

At the moment publite2 is quite specific for Freeciv-web. It would be nice with a new system which could be used to launch and monitor both Freeciv and Freeciv-web servers.

May I suggest you host the source code of pubcaz on https://github.com/freeciv ?
