| You probably need more than that.
To run a web server you are likely to need permission from you server provider. If you merely have space on a web host they will probably block (with a firewall) any attempts to connect on other than port 80 (the HTTP protocol).
So you really need a server who will let you, and shell access (to install and start the server).
There are places that provide that as a service fairly cheaply - look in the SMAUG FAQ - I think I list some there. |

| | I would upload the files with ftp, and then set it up much the same as you had on your own computer. If it is a Unix server you will probably need to recompile everything, which means you need to upload the source as well. |

| | Did you have it going on your PC? Do the same thing on the server. You would need to run your startup script, so that the MUD runs as a background process. |
