If you’re serious about running a Multiverse server, then you may end up using a dedicated server or a VPS as a hosting platform for it.  Especially if you want to appear in the World in Progress section.

I’ve been developing under Windows, but I purchased a dedicated server recently, and I’m using that for some testing.  It’s made me realise how much Linux type stuff I’ve forgotten.  Including, how to reboot!

For those wondering, the commands are:

• shutdown -r now - Reboot (Running any init shutdown scripts first - safest way)
• shutdown -nr now - Reboot (An IMMEDIATE / forced reboot, no running of scripts - rather dangerous to do unless it’s an emergency)
• shutdown -h now - This is a bit like a safe shutdown, except it halts the VPS.

Basic stuff, but bears a note, in my opinion!
