Step 3: Installing CoD2

Installing Call of Duty 2 is straightforward. First, upload the lnxded file (the Linux dedicated server binary) to your server. The binary files can be found here. For example, place it in:

/home/USERNAME/_bin/cod2/cod2_lnxded_1_3

Next, make the file executable by assigning it at least permission 500 (read and execute permissions for the owner):

chmod 500 cod2_lnxded_1_3

After that, upload the corresponding main directory to your server. Keep in mind that the contents of the main folder differ depending on the game version (1.0, 1.2, or 1.3).

For example:

/home/USERNAME/_stock/cod2_1_3/main/

All files must be readable by the user account that will be used to start the server.
