Official servers

Usually supported versions include: the current stable release, the old stable release and the current development release.

Use of the default server is most common and most players will be on it. The alternate (server2) server is most often used when the default one is down for whatever reason.

• server.wesnoth.org 
Accepts up-to-date master builds and redirects other clients to the appropriate server according to their version, runs on the default port 15000. This is the default server.
• server2.wesnoth.org (aka basilic.tuxfamily.org) 
Accepts up-to-date master builds and redirects other clients to the appropriate server according to their version, runs on the default port 15000.

Alternate third-party servers

These are servers hosted by third parties and not officially maintained by the Wesnoth team.

• vesnod.ceata.org 
Trisquel 6 server located in Romania, maintained by Fundația Ceata. Accepts 1.10.x versions of the game on default port 15000.
• linuxiuvat.de
Debian GNU/Linux server in Germany. Everyone is welcome. Accepts all versions on default port 15000.

Local server

You can also set up a temporary server hosted on your own computer for the use of LAN games using the dedicated server software wesnothd. To start an instance, choose Multiplayer → Host Networked Game. Other users can then connect to it by inputting the IP address of the host machine under Connect to Server. As soon as all players disconnect, the local server will be shut down.
