Help! Setting up LAN gaming

[kiri]

Hey all

I just bought an internet cafe and want to get some LAN gaming going. I also plan on LAN parties 'cause there's nothing for about 200 miles around here.

I already have three of the most popular games... suggestions for others would be cool.

Counterstrike CZ
Unreal Tournament 2004
Battlefield Vietnam

Others - Diablo, Myst, Driver.... a couple of others. I forget now.

I'm cool with proxy and IP settings within my network so no worries getting party machines connected, but....

I'm running a Linux server. Red Hat. Do I have to run these games thru that server or can I set them up on a Windows machine within the network?

Sorry, I don't know much about LAN gaming and my Linux techie costs me $95 an hour.

Cheers for any assistance or tips you guys can give.

Some games I'd like to see if I went to a Lan center would be these:

Farcry
Call of Duty
Counter Strike (non-CZ)
Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne
One of the millions of versions of Doom
