Help with server host...

[riderr3]

Hello.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, and have dynamic IP (my router is Dlink dsl2600u)

Tried many ways, but my server still marked as <NO RESPONSE> in Doomseeker. I cannot join even via cmd (Client trying to join endlessly).

What I do:
1) Disabled router firewall

2) Disabled OS firewall

3) Forward TCP/UDP 10666, 10667, and other ports

4) Other network services is ok - port 10666 even worked! But cannot host Zandronum.

5) http://www.canyouseeme.org/ shows

Code: Select all

Error: I could not see your service on 46.159.80.255 on port (10666)
Reason: Connection timed out

my server console output:

Any help? Is there are step-by-step guide?

From the log it shows that there is something else already listening on port 10666* and thus the server was started on port 10667.
If that's not to your knowledge, it may be a zombie process which can be fixed by rebooting the computer.
Instead of using canyouseeme to check the server availability, temporarily set SV_ShowLauncherQueries to True and watch the console for activity for a moment. If there is activity from clients querying the server it means that the server is publicly visible.


*You can find out what process is using port 10666 with fuser 10666/udp and ps aux | grep 'The process number output from the previous command'.

I just typically do a ps ax | grep zandronum and find the PID of the process and kill it.

[riderr3]

Well, I added 192.168.1.2 address in doomseeker options, now my server is visible for other players

im also trying to get servers going, but I got this qierd thing then i use that command konar said, i use port 10666, it tells it directs to 10667 and then i launch the sv_showlauncherquery it says it send a challenge on 192.168.1.13:12999 whats up? O.o
also, if i refresh myself, it says the same with port 51011
