Need help with LFS Dedicated Server

[Baked Nut]

Hi i've got my server running fine but i want too be able too run in as a background service so its not visable on the taskbar / desktop..

i made a background service and got it to work but it doesnt seem too be available too join. Ccan't find it in the mast list etc or join it directly hence i think the service is running but not accessable....

Any ideas ?

This is the one thing I wish the dedicated server had... an option to not run as a GUI. So, I haven't found anything that makes it run in hiding :shrug:

If it didn't have a GUI, and just ran through a command prompt persay, I could have several Linux hosts up right now, but oh well :(

I don't know why the host isn't showing up for you once you made it a background service, never tried that really (or know how).
