In outside IP, do I enter my external IP (212,1...)?
for forwarding.

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Fri Jul 01, 2005 5:12 pm

So my server is public now, but I can't connect to my own server!
What can I do?

You need to set your publicaddress as your EXternal IP. But if you want to connect to it on the same machine, use the LAN IP. (Or just type "localhost" as the server).

Ha it's good, i didn't enter "localhost", I had entered my adress

So it works now? Try to get someone else who has bzflag to join using the external IP address from their own computer.

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Fri Jul 01, 2005 7:32 pm

Yes, it work.
There are already a lot of people on my server.

Hey quick question, what is the EXACT server name. I don't see it on the list. What map are you running?

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Fri Jul 01, 2005 8:23 pm

I was running the server on our family computer, so whe whut down it during nights.

So it runs sometimes during the day. I'm trying to run it on an other computer. In some days it may run 24/24h

It's name is "-->funny maze<-- it's my first server!! by lddw"
It begin with my ip: 212.195.200.112:5154

I'll maybe change the name of the server.
I'm running my last map and i've called it "funny maze"

And a last think: THANK you all for helping me !!!

You can now "Announce" your server,
Of course that is what started all of this,

This section of the forum is for AFTER you get your server runnng,
not before.

I think thet only and adminc can move this topic.

I think if they wanted to move it, they would have by now.

And I just played on you'r server. It's working fine and I like the map!

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Sat Jul 02, 2005 12:44 pm

ah thanks
but can we have many server in a computer?

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Sat Jul 02, 2005 1:46 pm

In theory, but think of lag... You probably have a regulat DSL/Cable connection. So maybe you can host 4-8 players at a time... If you have 2 servers then you can only have half the number of players on each, so it would be like 2-4 players on each server... and That won't be much fun with 2-4 players.

ah ok

Find out what your UPstream bandwidth is at http://www.adslguide.org/tools/speedtest.asp

I have 128kbps UP and can host a few people... but maybe you have 256 and can host more... like 8 or 10.
