@@ How do I manage my pserver.prp file?
It's a good idea to use the god command `flushprops &lt;N&gt; every week or so.  This command flushes props older than N days from the prop file.  Which reduces the pserver prop file size and improve your pserver's overall responsiveness.  This should be part of your periodic pserver maintenance.  If not managed, your pserver.prp file will continue to grow.

@@ My palace won't start, server says it can't open the pserver.prp, what is wrong?
Your pserver.prp has become corrupt.  You will need to log into the shell server and replace that file.  If you do not have one.  Just type 'touch pserver.prp' and this will create a blank one for you.
