+still connect to your server if they know the hostname and port number.) | |

graphical server, and it is minimized, do not show the window in the normal | |
window list, but in the System Tray (the collection of small icons in the | |
bottom right of the screen). Clicking on the dopewars icon in the Tray will | |
restore the window to its normal state.<p /></li> | |

+proxy. If you want (or are required) to use a web proxy to access web pages | |

+the metaserver and can be used to tell potential clients the rough rules of | |
