- About -
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Jazz2 server list program is a small cluster server. Multiple servers
around the world are constantly syncing with each other. When a Jazz2 user
start a game, a random list server is picked from the list and the Jazz2
game will be added to that list server. This list server will update the
other servers with the change. Jazz2 can get a server list from any of the
listservers, so if one is down or unreachable, another will take over.
The list server program is written in C, uses WinSock32 and occupies hardly
any memory, processor time or bandwith.

- Setup -
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Put j2serve.exe and servers.txt in some directory on your harddisk
* Start j2serve.exe (a tray icon will appear)
* Double-click the tray icon (the status window will appear)
* Press the "Server Name" button and enter the host name or IP address of the
computer that j2serve.exe is running on
* Setup completed
You can test the listserver's network connections by telnetting to it on port
10055. This will dump the same information available in the server dialog to
the incoming socket and then close the connection.
You will not be part of the list server network untill other servers know
that your server is present. Before you will be part of the network, the
servers.txt on the other servers has to be changed.

- Network ports -
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Jazz2 list server uses the following network ports, you should configure
your Proxy or FireWall to let them pass.
- TCP, port 10053 List request port, used by Jazz2 to get a server list
- TCP, port 10054 Dynamic list port, used by Jazz2 servers to be listed
- TCP, port 10055 Status port, telnet here to see status
- TCP, port 10056 List server net port, used by listservers to sync with
each other.
- TCP, port 10057 Raw list port, telnet to this port to get a raw ASCII
server list.
Interesting ports to telnet to are 10055 and 10057, the other ports are
binary only.
