Do i have to rebuild the server after messing with the config or just restart it?
What i mean by rebuild is useing microsoft visual blah blah Build option ? i just need to restart the server right?

So i had my friend try to hop on after changeing the config and adding my external IP and he is getting the same problem, after pressing enter world he is kicked to the login screen

Would having hamachi log me in on my computer be causeing this?

No, not unless I guess you have Hamatchi actually turned on, then sure that could cause it to not work because you basically are running a virtual network. I would just remove it for trouble shooting.

I would think most or all of your problems is that you only have the login ports and maybe the world port forwarded and not the zone ports.

And to answer your question, no you do not have to recompile.

I still need a list of those ports you forwarded.

ORT FORWARDING ON YOUR ROUTER (if your using one)

Log in to your router and you need to forward the following ports to the internal
ip of your server computer : (These are the ones that worked for me)

5998, 5999
7000 to 7100 (Port Range Forwarding is essential for this)
9000

To find out the internal ip of your computer, at a command prompt type ipconfig
The 192.168.1.xxx number that is listed is the forwarding IP you need.
Every router is different, so if you don't know how to log in to it, then you
will have some searching to do without the manual
Most commonly, a web browser is used, typing in an address like 192.168.1.1
Mine was set to leave username blank, and enter a default password. Then you
can change that, but that is MY ROUTER ONLY, yours may be different.

This is the guide i followed, those are the only ports open and they are only open for my static IP for my computer only (servers running off my computer)
