I was just wondering, how would I run an LAN server that people could connect to on my college's network? I might have to go talk to the folks who manage the network in the case that the network doesn't play nice with me hosting a server on my PC (Wouldn't see why though given the server would be running my hardware wouldn't it?) but the thing is that there are over a hundred access points for this network, each meant to bare the load of a few devices with them spread across campus enough to where you generally can access it from any indoor location. How would I ensure a LAN connection would work in this environment where you essentially have network traffic running through a daisy-chained cluster of routers rather than a central access point? Would I just have to figure out how to get people connected to the right access point? Or... Would it work across the whole network?
