Hosting an EQEmu server. I can't login, outsiders can.
Just like the topic says. I hosted a public server. It shows up fine in server select, my girlfriend can log into it and create characters and run around and crap.
I can't login to the damn thing, though :lol: LoginServer.ini: Code:
# READ README.TXT Code:
start zone . my.external.ip.address 7996 192.168.1.100 Code:
[Registration Servers] Is it not possible to host and log in on the same PC? Lemme know if there's any other info I can hand ya. And yea, I know, check the other 1017 threads. I've been reading em all as far back as I can, most are local servers or lans, or were fixed with something that didn't work for me. Cheers :) Edit: Forgot to mention, I can log on any other server fine, just not mine. Edit 2: When others log in, I get the "New Client" broadcast in world.exe. When I try to log in, all my windows are completely silent. It's like I'm not even getting to the server to check anything before getting punted. And if it were an IP address issue, nobody could get on, you'd think. Maybe my router's being too smart for its own good and not letting me access my external IP? |
well i run my server on the same comp and i log in fine good luck in finding yopur answers

your client is trying to connect to my.external.ip.address and is not getting routed. edit your windows host file with an entry for
192.168.1.100 my.external.ip.address then locally when your computer tries to connect to the server it doesnt try to go on the internet, then get stuffed by the router. |
This is gonna be a royal pain in the ass, since I run on a dynamic IP address. /sigh.
Thanks for the help, I'll try it tomorrow. |
Hmm... I figured you meant lmhosts.sam, right? Was I wrong in this assumption? I added the line into it and rebooted, still no go. :(

It may be a NAT issue, check the FAQ and other forums there is a good NAT walkthrough.
