There are two didicated servers online at the moment, one running 1.1beta3 and one running 1.1beta3 with the newer engine snapshot (which needs to be updated once again).
To find them, go to play online, join a game, search for games. You will need version 1.1beta3 to properly find games though, as the master servers have changed I believe, maybe one is still the same.
You can grab 1.1beta3 off the download page on sourceforge (linked on the Transfusion homepage).

you run a Transfusion dedicated server much like you would a Quake 1 dedicated server.
The easiest way is to goto a command prompt, goto your transfusion folder and type "transfusion.exe -dedicated" (without the quotes)
when the console starts, type in your game parameters like:
deathmatch 3
fraglimit 20
timelimit 15
teamplay 0
map bb3 (or whatever map you want to play)
You can make a server.cfg file in your basetf folder to and put all your parameters there too, but the above way is easier for beginners.
Look at http://www.gameadmins.com
or the planetquake server forums for more info

if you want to run a linux dedicated, unzip the transfusion beta, chmod +x transfusion-glx to make it executable, edit your configs and than run ./transfusion-glx -dedicated <+servercommands if needed>
running it in screen is also a nice thing.
for windows look at I Live...AGAINs post.
sample server.cfg
sv_public is to make the server show up in the server list if you want to make a puplic server.
sv_maxrate: maximum allowed rate for the clients, maybe you have to tweak it so it fits your servers connection
net_messagetimeout: time after the server timeouts a client. normaly 300 wich is 5minutes! way to much particularly if some clients crash and than reconnect(like me =p) the server is filled up with inactive connections.
timestamps: if you want timestamps in your logfile and servermsgs
maybe you want to play arround with host_maxfps, sometimes it makes the game mor smooth, at least in quake.
sample maps.cfg
the maps.cfg is for mapcycling.
have a look in the transfusion doc for explanation http://blood.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ ... html#ss5.4 you also find there the warmup and other stuff explained.
for general quake commands look at http://www.inside3d.com/qip/q1/console.htm
for some setupup hints like cronscript for a linux box look at http://www.inside3d.com/qip/q1/console.htm
