NWN Server

I have made my first module and now I'd like to DM it . Do I have to host it? I only have a 56K modem at home I doubt that is fast enough to run as a server. What do I do or can I not DM with that slow a modem ?

As I understand it, you might be able to run a DM client, but probably only with one, maybe two players.

With my 56k, two players is OK, but when a third arrives it all goes to pot.

Is there a setup whereby someone's module can be hosted by someone and the creator has login details or something that identifies him as the DM?

Actually, anyone can log in as a DM on someone else's server if that person hasn't set a DM password. Just use the DM client to join an existing game rather than starting a new one.

I believe that's how it works, anyway. I haven't played a multi-DM game although I know some folks who have (some even play with a 1-1 DM-player ratio!).

I ran with three players last night and it seemed to work well, I will try again tonight.
