Rust Server Setup
Currently only people who get server beta keys are allowed to setup servers. This is limited to a few game server providers. There are file floating around that contain the server code but they are not updated or completed. Hopefully as rust leaves beta they will allow players to host their own servers without having to track down random files that are possibly infected.
Rust Server OS supported
- Windows
- Linux
I am sure you can get RUST running through WINE like other games but without proper server files I have not been able to test.
