[Easy] Newb friendly guide to making your server public Hamachi or DNS

[ZestyJ]

Hey all KingMitch here with a newb friendly guide to setting up a public server With Hamachi and/or with DNS.

DNS:

1. Goto DynDNS.com: DNS Hosting, E-mail Delivery, VPS Hosting and Other Services and create and account confirm the confirmation e-mail and log in.

2. Once logged in go to "Services" then "Dynamic DNS".

3. Once there click on the link "Get Started" in top right hand corner.

4. Fill in the form use the automatic ip address detector and check the "Wild Card" box. Put the name of what you like and choose the main domain you want it on. (Eg: kingmitch.servegame.org)

5. Once that is finished you must forward the following ports:
3724
8093
8129
(Go to your host gateway (Eg: 192.168.1.1) type pass and find port forward section)

6. When that is finished go into your server config files and then arcemu-realms config go to bottom and do this: (For external ip go to What Is My IP Address? - IP Address Lookup, Internet Speed Test, IP Info, plus more)

<Realm1 Name = "Test Realm"
	Address = "Your External IP Here:8129" 
	Icon = "PVP"
	Population = "1.0"
	TimeZone = "1">

7. Save the files start your server normally and anyone should be able to play on it from your DNS site (Eg: kingmitch.servegame.com)

8. Your done.


Hamachi:

1. https://secure.logmein.com/products/hamachi/list.asp go there and download hamachi.

2. Once you have downloaded and installed this create your account or choose your nickname.

3. Then click on the little button next to the cog looks like a triangle and choose "Create Server" and name it what you like aswell as any password.

4. Have whoever you want to play on your server join the server with same Network name and password and then give them your nickname id (Eg:999.999.999.999) or the numbers above your name at top of the program.

5. Set that as the realmlist and they should be able to log in.

6. Your Done ^^.

Hope this helps.
I will be posting pictures and such later on.

You forgot the "hosts" part.

[ZestyJ]

What hosts part?

[ZestyJ]

Updated. (filler)

[D1zl3]

it didnt work for me, my arcemu-world says connection failed, any ideas?

[ZestyJ]

Ummm well yes i suggest you dont make the logonserver ip your ip only the realm ip.

Using the Hamachi version I am able to connect, but when my friends try they can log in but cannot get past the realm select screen

[ZestyJ]

Well that is more of a server or db problem also tell them once they get there press enter a few times and it may work.

[D1zl3]

its still not working, the arcemu world/logonserver both open up properly, but in wow it says unable to connect. I was on hamachi before so Im pretty sure im doing it right. Is this all right?

logonserver:

<Listen Host = "127.0.0.1"
        ISHost = "127.0.0.1"
        RealmListPort = "3724"
        ServerPort = "8093">

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "lol"
             AllowedIPs = "127.0.0.1/24"
             AllowedModIPs = "127.0.0.1/24">

realms:

<LogonServer Address = "127.0.0.1"
	Port = "8093"
	Name = "Default Logon"
	RealmCount = "1">

<Realm1 Name = "WoWUltimatum"
	Address = "wowultimatum.ath.cx:8129"  <---- if i put this to my ip address, arcemu-world says connection failed
	Icon = "PVP"
	Population = "1.0"
	TimeZone = "1">

world:

<Listen Host = "0.0.0.0"
        WorldServerPort = "8129">

             AllowedIPs = "127.0.0.1/24"
             AllowedModIPs = "127.0.0.1/24">

realms:

<LogonServer Address = "127.0.0.1"
	Port = "8093"
	Name = "Default Logon"
	RealmCount = "1">

<Realm1 Name = "WoWUltimatum"
	Address = "wowultimatum.ath.cx:8129"  <---- if i put this to my ip address, arcemu-world says connection failed
	Icon = "PVP"
	Population = "1.0"
	TimeZone = "1">

world:

<Listen Host = "0.0.0.0"
        WorldServerPort = "8129">

Well that is most likely you didnt forward the ports and if you did you dont change any of the other ips to it only that one.
