Anyone attempted taking the ssb2 src that comes with the ssbilling2 package for 1.11i and porting it to Linux?

Thanks

I'm sure someone has attempted it but it'd need to be re-written not to utilize winsock and other windows-based libraries.

Good point. Alternate question. Is there a linux based continuum billing server out there anywhere?

I believe Doc Flabby runs it on Linux under Wine

Thats what I'm doing now. I am just trying to take out all the unnecessary overhead out of the picture.. ASSS has done that on the zone/game server side and if subbill/subbill2/etc gets ported somehow and since ssbillng2's source is available it seems like a good porting candidate then a completely native gameserver could be run. Wine even for ssbilling2 still uses more resources than I'd like although it does run a lot nicer than subbill in my testing.

Hm, have you noticed that AS3 doesn't have to be connected to a biller? It's already possible to run a completely native gameserver. If you'd still like to connect to a biller, you can connect to the Public Biller if you apply for a slot. AS3 can replicate the password system, and even the alias checks if you are using mysql. Between that, and the fact that you can just use Wine for SSBilling2, I doubt that there are many people interested in porting this. The need really isn't there.

I recognize all of that and you are right there's no demand, just curiosity speaking. I am probably going to write a sqlite api for asss myself and play around with adding more db functions. As far as the biller goes yeah going with the public biller is probably the way to go or just use it completely internal db only and have no biller daemon running at all.

Yeah the more I think about it the low volume of data would be quite fine to use BDB for. I re set up the server to use bdb only and no billing server and that should be adequate.
