Installing Team Speak server 3

DutchDaemon said:
If you want to compile version 3 from source, you're basically on your own. Follow relevant INSTALL and README files in the tarball.

Teamspeak[23] aren't open source - the TS2 port is use_linux=yes, so I'm guessing the port just makes sure linux emulation is working and the unpacks the binary into a freebsd-friendly location.

I haven't mucked with TS3 any, but TS2 worked fine for me just installing linux_base and then unpacking the tarball in a specific user's home directory. MySQL connector didn't work, but that was the only real gotcha I ran into.

I'm guessing something like:

# pkg_add -r linux_base
# fetch [url]http://ftp.4players.de/pub/hosted/ts3/releases/beta-25/teamspeak3-server_linux-x86-3.0.0-beta25.tar.gz[/url]
# tar -zxvf teamspeak3-server_linux-x86-3.0.0-beta25.tar.gz

Then cding into the directory, and following the instructions as you would a linux machine. It won't put the files into freebsd-specific locations, but if you put it in say, /home/teamspeak and run it as user "teamspeak" it'd probably be okay until the port comes along.
