Step 2: Specifying a hosting account for installing the game server

Once you specified an operator's account, you or your customer allotted game server operation privileges can install and deploy game servers on a specific game hosting account.

To do this,

  1. a) When logged on to Plesk with administrator's privileges, go to Modules > Battlefield 1942 Game Server, and click an operator's name.

    b) When logged on to Plesk with client credentials, click the Battlefield 1942 link in the navigation pane.

  2. Click the Game Hosting Accounts button. A screen will show the game hosting accounts of this operator.
  3. Click Add Hosting Account.
  4. Specify the properties of the game hosting account where you want to install and run the game server: host name or IP address, login and password. Click OK. If you specified an account with super user privileges, you will be prompted to:
  5. Specify the path to the Battlefield 1942 installation directory, if you already have it installed on the server. To install the game server from a scratch, click the install link.
  6. Specify the URL from where to download the Game server package and the directory to install the game server to. Click OK. Once the installation is finished (this can take up to 30 minutes), and the core components are installed, you can proceed to setting up a game server.
