I have an old Intel pentium 3 ghz machine and i want to know, what do i need to run a 32 slot tf2 server
I run l4d games on a 2.4 ghz. You might need a good internet connection with a high upload rate for that many slots though.
As far as I know, you download and install the TF2 Dedicated Server Tool and use that to start the server. If you're asking what you need to run a 32 slot server, you're going to need a good internet connection like stated previously. That being said, I'm fairly certain running the server while it's populated will result in a drop of speed.
One hell of an ISP.

You'll need some way to automatically restart the server if it crashes, 32 players makes for instability.
My post was not a joke, lowpings.net is win
Minimum reqs for TF2 (A 32 slot server will need more than this): 1 GHz Processor 256Mb RAM 2Gb Hard drive space Internet connection with good upload speeds [url=http://forums.srcds.com/viewtopic/5439]A good guide here[/url]
I've got a 2.8 GHz Pentium 4, and my FPS drops to absolutely unplayable levels when there's more than ~20 people on the server. I don't think you'd be able to run a 32 man server without a significantly better processor. Also, as said before, you need a hell of a good internet connection. (Yes, I know my computer sucks. I'm getting a new one.)
My server computer is: AMD Dual Core 3800+ 2.0GHz 4GB RAM [URL=http://www.speedtest.net][IMG]http://www.speedtest.net/result/507791899.png[/IMG][/URL] What could I run stable?
If you're doing this from your own computer at home, why are you jacking the maxplayers up to 32? Just keep it at 24.

32 players.
Don't run a 32 player server. 24 is so much better.
