Hello! I have created a server for just me and my friends. I'm using an old computer to host the server, the specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.80 GHz
3.25 RAM
32-bit operating system
35ms ping
1.87 Mbps Download
0.36 Mbps
We live in close proximity, so I'm ASSUMING that the internet doesn't need to be the greatest (assuming because I haven't really looked into networking) We're on different networks so LAN is out of the question. We do use Hamachi, however.
Now my questions:
I've been reading that linux is good to host servers, so is it worth it to dual-boot and host the server on linux?
Is there an effective way to increase my download/upload speed without switching/upgrading ISPs?
Is my CPU even able to run a minecraft server for 2-3 people without stability problems?
EDIT: I was looking into Ubuntu linux, would that be the OS I want?

#4 Why do you want to Join DarkTide?
- I'm looking for a server that is actually populated, as to have actual challenge. A server that isn't over-run by hackers. And from what I've been reading, this server is a great server to try out.
#5 Did you read and understand the rules?
- Sure did.
2. Why do you play Minecraft/Why do you want to join my server? I play Minecraft because it's awesome blocky-ness is irresistable. I want to play on this server because I like working as a team to help against attacks from other players, creatures, and to share resources. Also, heard great things about this server.
3. Do you promise not to grief? I promise not to grief.

Reason: Subterranean Tunnels looks epic, and I'd like to see what I could possible build there. Also love the idea of multiple worlds.
