You can write your master server in whatever you want. You just need to understand how Master Servers work and the type of data the engines are expecting.

And I do not believe there are any tutorials. There is a Perl master server, however. Search the resources for it.

I'm also interested in a PHP master server. Sam, could you provide some information on how you did it? That would make it much easier to have a master server up and running in a short time.

David-

Send me an email and I'll let you know what I have done. My functionality deviates slightly from the exact master server idea as defined in TGE, for example it involves a chatroom and doesn't involve anonymous registration of game servers.

Jake-

The only problem is the time it would take to format it up properly for general consumption- to remove all my own project specific stuff and genericise the TGE and PHP functions. I was intending to discuss this with David at a high level really.. we'll see how it goes... :)
