Question ID: 736694
We're looking for the latest, most secure QuakeWorld server to install
on Fedora Core 5. It has to be compatible with Fruitz of Dojo's
standard Mac OSX QuakeWorld client
(http://www.fruitz-of-dojo.de/php/download.php4?dlnr=2). Our primary
concern is security, the release has to be free of known holes.

We're posting this question to GA because not only would we like the
link to download, but background information on the different
QuakeWorld distributions and main concerns with them.
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

 id Software's old qwsv is quite dated and should not be used (nor can
it be used in most cases, since it's built for the ancient libc5). So,
use either mvdsv or QuakeForge.

Note: Both mvdsv QuakeForge are actively being developed (more or
less), and it's highly possible that newer versions than the ones
linked below have been released, so check http://qwex.does.it/ or
http://quakeforge.net/files.php before you proceed further.

      mvdsv 0.165b source
      mvdsv 0.165b binary (glibc 2.1.3)
      QuakeForge 0.5.2 source

Got it working, with mvdsv.  Make sure all file/dir names are
lowercase.  Just follow the faq at the link above.
