Edit the Hosts File

Non-frequent Edit

1. Open ]Notepad with Administrative privileges by clicking Start, All Programs, Accessories, and then right-click Notepad and select to open as Administrator.
2. Now that Notepad is open with Administrative privileges browse to (C:\ Windows\System32\drivers\etc) in Notepad and open the hosts file.

Now you can edit and save the hosts file.
Frequent Editing
I sometimes frequently edit my hosts file and like a shortcut on my desktop for easy editing. Here’s how to create a shortcut on your desktop and lets you quickly and easily open your hosts file with Notepad and edit it.

1. Send a shortcut to Notepad to your desktop by right-clicking Notepad in the start menu and selecting send to desktop.
2. Right-click the shortcut to Notepad on your desktop and select properties.
3. Click the advanced button near the bottom of the shortcut tab and check off run as administrator. Click OK in the advanced properties window.
4. Replace %SystemRoot%\system32\notepad.exe with %SystemRoot%\system32\notepad.exe C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts in the target box. Click OK in the properties window to save the changes.

Now all you have to do is open that shortcut to open your hosts file with Notepad with administrative privileges.

Thank you so much, sorry for not understanding earlier.
If I have any more errors I will post here.

Sorry for not reading the threads, but I work better when being talked to directly.
I am stuck at "Logging into the game server". Thank you for your assistance.

bump......

edit: UPDATED 3.3.3+

I finally got my server to connect through the DYNS name so its public now. Took me hours and hours of trying different things but finally got it!! Thaanks for the guide and got help by reading the forums posts.. Anyway not to correct anyone but there are a few things said in here I didn't have to do and some I did to get it to work,, 100% no connecting issues, no looping,, etc..

Here is my host file but you need to edit the dyns name of course..

# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
#      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server
#       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
#	127.0.0.1       localhost
#	::1             localhost

127.0.0.1        localhost

127.0.0.1        Examplegohere.servegame.com

 
External IP      Examplegohere.servegame.com

Internal IP      Examplegohere.servegame.com

External IP is your chicken IP or goto MYIP.com
Internal IP is your IP in ipconfig (example 192.168.1.101)



Also I have config files that work with 3.3.3a.
And you need to edit them a little like adding Database name, passwords,DYNDs host name in realm config. etc.
[note: If you need to me post the configs in code blocks and show you what to edit I can. Just ask]

[project anthrax]

actually by doing this

127.0.0.1 localhost

127.0.0.1 Examplegohere.servegame.com

you may cause a prerequisite in which some people may have undetermined blocks or other such errors
if it works for you, you may do so however

btw please take your download links down if you want to help people do so in your own thread its a little rude to take mine over

[chaoticd35]

Sorry, didn't mean to offend anyone just trying to help..:P

Note: I removed the download link in the previous post..

[eids]

well this is the 9000 time i try to do this...

i get to the part where the world.exe tells me "trying again in 10 sec"
Here is my configs:

<LogonDatabase Hostname = "127.0.0.1"
               Username = "root"
               Password = "ascent"
               Name     = "logon"
               Port     = "3306"
               Type     = "1">



<Listen Host = "0.0.0.0"
        ISHost = "0.0.0.0"
        RealmListPort = "3724"
        ServerPort = "8093">


<LogLevel Screen = "0"
          File = "-1">


<Rates AccountRefresh = "300">


<Client MinBuild = "00000"
        MaxBuild = "99999">


<LogonServer RemotePassword = "dddddd"
             AllowedIPs = "193.168.1/24"
             AllowedModIPs = "193.168.1/24">

<WorldDatabase Hostname = "127.0.0.1" Username = "root" Password = "ascent" Name = "world" Port = "3306" Type = "1">
<CharacterDatabase Hostname = "127.0.0.1" Username = "root" Password = "ascent" Name = "characters" Port = "3306" Type = "1">
<Listen Host = "0.0.0.0"
        WorldServerPort = "8129">

<Realm1 Name = "EpicWoW"
    Address = "2XX.XXX.2XX.XXX:8129" 
    Icon = "PVP"
    Population = "1.0"
    TimeZone = "1">

<LogonServer Address = "2XX.XXX.XXX.XXX"
    Port = "8093"
    Name = "Default Logon"
    RealmCount = "1">

[project anthrax]

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "dddddd"
AllowedIPs = "193.168.1.2/24"
AllowedModIPs = "193.168.1.2/24">

the two or what other number comes up except 192.168.1.1 isnt the right adress 192.168.1.2 or .4 is more like what it looks like

[eids]

well i found out that my ports wont open and i dunno why cause ive done exactly like "80 - 80 both <ip> enable" and it still wont open

[project anthrax]

you have to use a port 81 or 8080 redirect forward those ports and configure your apachie to work with them so you can get your website up these ports your looking for are just for the site not the server its self
