If you are interested in setting up Teamspeak on your *nix dedicated server, simple follow these instructions:

1) Login to SSH as root

2) #useradd ts

3) This should of automatically created a directory called /ts in /home (/home/ts) – if it hasn’t, run #mkdir /home/ts

4) #chown -R ts /home/ts

5) #passwd ts

6) #su ts

7) #cd /home/ts/

8) #wget ftp://ftp.freenet.de/pub/4players/teamspeak.org/releases/ts2_server_rc2_202319.tar.bz2

9) #tar -jxvf ts2_server_rc2_202319.tar.bz2

10) #cd tss2_rc2

11) #mv * ../

12) #cd ../

13) #rm -rfv tss2_rc2 (BE CAREFUL WITH THIS COMMAND!)

14) #./teamspeak2-server_startscript start

And you’re done 🙂

If you have any firewalls installed, you will need to open ports 8767, and possibly 14534.
