DESCRIPTION
Start, stop or restart network-server. The network-server is needed for network-games to coordinate the clients. It may run on a client or on a separate computer. The network-server also includes a broadcast-/multicast-server to be found automatically by the clients. Alternatively the network-server can be managed with the command vg4_nw_server on the command-line. Logging goes to syslog, using name VG4-network-server.
