I'm ready to try to go public but

I'm running into libcurl errors.
I'm using these commands
-public "blah blah" and
-publicaddr 67.10.210.195:5123
I ran some -ds in the conf file and I see that the last thing it hits before it tries to close is a libcurl problem when I attempt to use the above -public commands
Any help?

With this:
-publicaddr 67.10.210.195:5123
I get:
********************************************
Running a public server with the following settings:
public address is 67.10.210.195:5123
LIBCURL: (null)
********************************************
And an illegal operation box from windows.
With this:
-public "my home server descriptions"
I get:
********************************************
Running a public server with the following settings:
public address is me.houston.rr.com:5123
LIBCURL: (null)
********************************************
And an illegal operation box from windows.
If I use both instructions the one that comes first gives me the error.
Hope that detail helps

Thanks Bryjen, DTR and wegstar!
Problem fixed.
I had to -noMasterBanlist to get up and running.

So your up?
You realize unless you ban someone, everyone (including the filthy cheaters on the master banlist) will be allowed into your server.

I have no alternative. It's apparently a bug many run into on windoze boxen that the masterbanlist crashes bzfs.
I guess I will have to manually ban ip/ipsubnets with my firewall if I get cheater problem.
Any way I can quickly call up everyone's actual IP through the console while logged in as admin?

I immagine you could have compiled the source. On Linux, that's what I had to do. Actually, I still have my friendly libcurl sig

Actually, there in an alternative. The master banlist is here:
http://bzflag.org/master-bans.txt . Take it and copy it into a file called "bad_tanks.txt" that is in the same directory as your CONF file. In your conf file, add:
Code: Select all
#Ban File
-banfile "bad_tanks.txt"
Now BZFS will load all the bans in that file. They will not be current to the master banlist unless you re-update manually, but at least you get most of the people. If you create a ban yourself, it will also be added to that file.

Oh wait. Do I leave -nomasterbanlist on if I have -banfile "mybanfile.txt"?

Yes, you do. The master ban list and the banfile are two different sources of bans. Even if you disable the master ban list, your ban list will still be loaded.

I don't think i'm advanced enough to compile anything
I tried slipstreaming an XP Pro install disc with service packs and where it said it worked it wouldn't run properly
And that's with a 'how to' website leading me all the way
