# friskserver(6x)

network risk board-game server

## NAME

friskserver - network risk board-game server

## SYNOPSIS

**friskserver &**\

## DESCRIPTION

**friskserver** is the server that controls a particular game of risk. It will start up on the machine it is run on and wait for clients to connect.

## NOTES

The server (and client) normally use port **5324**. Changing this will require editing the source (**RISK\_PORT** in *riskgame.h*) and then recompiling everything to use that port.
