Its Not Okay Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) Looking to setup a botting farm and wondering what distro some of you use? I'm very familiar with linux, running arch on my laptop, gentoo on my desktop and centos on my server. I have extra server space and thinking of setting up some bots. Also wondering, am I better off running a bunch of seperate VM's with 2-3 bots running in each or one VM with tons of bots, I have 40gb ram and 2x2680v2 xeons.

Veni Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I've always run Ubuntu 16.04 or CentOS 6. I would just run them all in the same VM instance unless you have the resources to burn, but I wouldn't expect it to make a huge difference for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butters Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I prefer Ubuntu with xfce. Easy to use if you run more bots. If possible, better to run more bots on a single server rather than splitting into VMs, as VMs eat away extra resource. Of course, management and launch times will suffer.
