Hamachi only worked for us through the weekend, then wouldn't get a stable enough connection for husband to log in. I uninstalled it and changed my husband's Window hosts file from:
< my internal IP > clmtyserver.dnsalias.com
To:
< my internal IP > < my external IP >
My config looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>clmty</shortname>
<longname>Calamity</longname>
<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. (read: You don't) -->
<address>clmtyserver.dnsalias.com</address>
<localaddress>192.168.x.xxx</localaddress>
<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>clmtyserver.dnsalias.com</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>
Both of our eqhost files read:
[LoginServer]
Host=clmtyserver.dnsalias.com:5998
My husband and I can both finally log in! I have no idea if anyone outside of our LAN can connect yet, because my friends are at work. Using my dyndns address in his Windows hosts file did not work for some reason. I don't entirely understand what goes on with the host file, to be honest.
I am still getting a Debug Error nearly every time either of us log in or out, but at least it works. I find it best to let him log in first before I log in, so that I can go ahead and watch for the error message. I'm going to post about it in another section of forum to see if I can get it worked out.
Hope this helps someone else out there!
