I. System Requirements
==========================================
The following items are required to run a Medal Of Honor Airborne
dedicated server:
1. A broadband Internet connection or LAN connection.
2. A system that meets or exceeds the minimum system requirements
for the game.
3. The game successfully installed on the target computer.
II. Local Server Setup
==========================================
To set up a server locally or remotely using VNC, follow these steps:
1. Run the dedicated server launcher (DSLauncher.exe)
2. In the 'Basic' tab, enter the username and password you registered
with EA. (If you have not created an account: run the game, in the
main menu choose 'Multiplayer', and click 'Create Account').
3. In the 'Miscellaneous' tab, enter the port you wish to run your
server on as well as the password to administrate it remotely.
4. In the 'Map Rotation' tab, add at least one map to your rotation
by selecting the map name and pressing the 'Add' button.
5. Configure any other options you wish to set.
6. Save your config file using File>Save to the default MOHA config
folder: "My DocumentsEA GamesMedal of Honor Airborne(tm)Config".
You can open and save multiple dedicated server configurations. The
configuration that is currently open is the one that will be
launched.
NOTE: The first time you run the launcher, it should generate two
config files: MOHAGameTypes.ini and MOHAMaps.ini in the MOHA config
folder. These files are necessary for the dedicated server to run
properly and should only be modified by advanced users.
III. Remote Server Setup
=========================================
T o set up a server remotely (where you do not have physical access to
the computer or VNC), follow these steps:
1. Run the dedicated server launcher (DSLauncher. exe) locally.
2. In the 'Basic' tab, enter the username and password you registered
with EA. (If you have not created an account: run the game, in the
main menu choose 'Multiplayer', and click 'Create Account').
3. In the 'Miscellaneous' tab, enter the port you wish to run your
server on as well as the password to administrate it remotely.
4. In the 'Map Rotation' tab, add at least one map to your rotation
by selecting the map name and pressing the 'Add' button.
5. Configure any other options you wish to set.
6. Save your config file using File>Save.
7. Copy your saved config file (MOHADedicatedServer.ini by default),
MOHAGameTypes.ini and MOHAMaps.ini (which can be found in your
MOHA config folder) to the target computer's MOHA config folder:
"My DocumentsEA GamesMedal of Honor Airborne(tm)Config".
IV. Running The Server
=========================================
To run the server locally:
1. Follow the instructions in "II. Local Server Setup".
2. Run the dedicated server launcher (DSLauncher.exe).
3. Open the config file you want to run if it is not already open.
4. Press the 'Launch!' button.
To run the server remotely:
1. Follow the instructions in "III. Remote Server Setup".
2. Run MOHAServer.exe with the config file as a parameter:
MOHAServer.exe < config file name>e.g. MOHAServer.exe MyDedicatedServer.ini
If you run MOHAServer.exe without any parameters, it will attempt to
load the default config name: MOHADedicatedServer.ini.
V. Administrating Remotely
=========================================
Once connected, the dedicated server remote (DSRemote. exe) looks and
functions identically to the dedicated server.
To connect to a dedicated server remotely:
1. Run DSRemote.exe.
2. Enter the host name (IP address) of the sever.
3. Enter the server's port and password as specified in the config file.
4. If successful, the login dialog should disappear and "Remote
connection accepted" will be printed.
If you receive the "Connection failed." message, the host name or
port number was invalid. You may receive this message even with
correct values if the dedicated server has not yet initialized.
If you receive the "Login failed." message, the connection was
successful but your password was invalid.

or the remote tool. Simply type your command in the text field
at the bottom of the application and press the 'Execute' button;
