Curious, for those who bring their file servers along, do you normally pay for two ports or bring your own switch?
I've often wondered how people went about it.

I've often wondered how people went about it. I bring my own switch (though I believe this may now be a no-no) or just simply use an extra port. My understanding is you're mostly paying for desk space/food/staffing, the switches at the lan always seem to have spare ports anyway. Having to pay double to bring my file server would almost certainly deter me from doing it, as really only other people benefit from me bringing it. |

Bringing your own switch is a big nono If we see peoples switches used at the lan they will be unplugged That is all R4N

But what the other guys have said, using two ports on the current switch is ok but if we have other players needing it, then yeah it has to come out. And if we do see one there, and you aggrivate R4N from it...  |

No worries, just wanted to clear things up. In the past I have just had two NICs on my main PC and server going into that.
As mentioned, it mainly for the benefit of others, so no loss if I don't bring the file server.

you may be able to organise with admins for dedicated servers to go in the admin area - just VNC or RDP to it.
