I was wondering how to do this. Do I have to register somewhere first? Thanks in advance.

I can get a server running, that's not a problem, thing is it doesn't appear in the master list, I was wondering if you had to register? I forgot to mention I'm using linux and that thread is for windows, still it is good and relevent to linux as well. I just don't understand how to get it into the master list.

Thanks for the link :D

EDIT: Nevermind, I have this solved. In case anyone missed it it's in the FAQ.

Q: My server doesn't show up on the Tremulous Master Server List!
A: Quake 3 uses a function called the 'heartbeat' to broadcast the server as a public server. Otherwise, if the heartbeat is not enabled, the server is up and functioning but is not listed in the Tremulous Master Server list.

To correct this:
When launching the server, ensure you are setting the +set dedicated variable to 2. Setting your server to 1 will not send the heartbeat.

So specifying that at commandline should work. :D
