Free game server startup script software for linux

Game Server Startup Script project is a startup script to manage dedicated game servers like Quake3.
Game Server Startup Scripts is a startup script to manage a wide variety of Linux dedicated game servers. It can start/stop/restart/fix dedicated game servers like Quake3, Half Life, Tribes 2, UT2K4, BF1942 and others.
It uses qstat through cron to validate that a game is running as expected. If a game is not running as expected, the game is automatically restarted from the script through cron.
GSSS was written becuase I wanted a way to start up a variety of games in a standard way. Then I also wanted to make sure the games stayed running even after a crash.
So I wrote this perl script. It will start games and through a cron job make sure they stay running. If you have qstat installed it can also verify the game is running like it is suppose to be and not in some strange state where no one can play.
If the game is running but unresponsive, it kills it and starts it again. You can also stop running games cleanly as well.
Games supported by "Game Server Startup Script":
- Quake2
- Quake3
- RTCW
- Half Life
- Unreal
- UT2K3
- UT2K4
- Tribes 2
- NWN
- BF1942
- ET
Enhancements:
- Very minor changes, minor readme changes, clean up

ServerWatch is a GUI interface for the Linux NWN Server. It uses the KDE toolkit. I have changed the interface a bit from the server GUI that Bioware made for windows.

The biggest change is that I have grouped the widgets into two Tabs ("Server" and "Game"), and provided a third Tab ("Messages") that logs all server messages, and allows you to send commands to the server manually if you wish.

GOIM is a full featured jabber / XMPP client with special features (extensions) for gamers. (e.g. broadcasting a notification when you join a server.. and see which games others play and join them with one click on the game icon beside their name)
GOIM uses the Eclipse Rich Client Plattform as GUI and SMACK as its jabber library.
You can also use GOIM InsideEclipse IDE.
GOIM is still in an early Beta Stage, which means it may contains bugs and misses features.
Main features:
