Quake 4 dedicated server for Debian
===================================

The quake4-server systemd unit runs a dedicated server as
the user "quake4-server". This is a simple setup suitable for running one
server on a machine; by default it will cycle through the standard
Quake 4 deathmatch maps.

The quake4-server user's home directory is /var/games/quake4-server,
so game files can be found in /var/games/quake4-server/.quake4.
For convenience, /var/games/quake4-server/quake4 is a symlink to
that directory.

The /etc/quake4-server directory is symlinked into the game engine's
search path as etc/quake4-server, so you can place files there and execute
them with commands like "exec etc/quake4-server/ctf.cfg".
By default, the init script will use etc/quake4-server/server.cfg.

To set options that can only be configured via the command-line,
such as net_port, set the variable DAEMON_OPTS
in /etc/default/quake4-server.

The server can be managed in the usual way, e.g. via service(8)
and update-rc.d(8) commands like

    service quake4-server stop
    service quake4-server start
    update-rc.d quake4-server disable
    update-rc.d quake4-server enable

Because Quake 4 is proprietary software and might have security flaws
that Debian cannot fix, the dedicated server is disabled by default.
To mitigate any security flaws that might exist in it, the systemd unit
is configured with various security-hardening options, and a
corresponding sysvinit script is not provided.
