Making progress

So I found a new HDD for my laptop, installed and configured the Ubuntu server, and now I'm working on setting Vittescape up. The server is not good to go yet, so if you try to join, it won't let you. It will tell you that you're not on the white-list. I'm going to try using a white-list, and see how that goes. I think it should work just fine. I don't expect the server to be up today or tomorrow, but we'll see.
