Muds?
 

I want to host a mud on my computer what would be a good version of linux to do this on?

Thanks in advance

Haven't had experience with it, so I may be talking out of my @$$, but I've seen several people on this forum mention that Debian is an excellent server distro. Might try the distro forum as well...the regulars there will have good insight.

Hope that helps...

SMAUG
 

I have in the past hosted SMAUG muds on both RH and Slackware with not a problem.

Basically, any version of Linux would be fine for it. All of the work done in the mud is going to be part of the mudlib so you don't usually have to have anything extra running like perl. Mandy and RedHat and are getting infamous for being bloated and resurce piggy, which is the leading cause of death from the lagmonster, but just don't run X after you have the Mud going and you shouldn't have many problems.

Cheers,
