This will start the server attached to your current terminal window. In order to reliably keep the process running and restart it when it crashes, create a `systemd` unit file, based on the docs [here](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/understanding-systemd-units-and-unit-files), which runs the wine command above.
Here is an example `systemd` unit file which might live in `/etc/systemd/system/ravenshield.service`:
```
[Unit]
Description=ravenshield
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/wine /opt/rs/system/UCC.exe server -ini=/opt/rs/system/RavenShield.ini -servercfg=/opt/rs/system/Server.ini
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=10s
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```
After changing `systemd` unit files, run `systemctl daemon-reload` to read them. This will let you run `systemctl start ravenshield` to start your server, `systemctl enable ravenshield` to start it automatically. When the process crashes, it will automatically restart it (no more than one attempt every 10 seconds).
When you finish, test your server and take note of your IP address and port number.
