[roguesownu]

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "ascent"
AllowedIPs = "127.0.0.1/32"
AllowedModIPs = "127.0.0.1/32">

try changing to

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "ascent"
AllowedIPs = "127.0.0.0/24"
AllowedModIPs = "127.0.0.0/24">

ok im able to log in... im about to test out the public part tho... i changed

<Realm1 Name = "[]D V []D Addiction"
Address = "Addiction.is-a-geek.net:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

to

<Realm1 Name = "[]D V []D Addiction"
Address = "127.0.0.1:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

[hotandsekc]

and no, still not public /=

[roguesownu]

In order to go public the part in blue needs to be your external IP address or your host name

<Realm1 Name = "[]D V []D Addiction"
Address = "127.0.0.1:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

EDIT: You will also need a host (which you apparently have, Addiction.is-a-geek.net) and this host must be updated with your current external IP, because it does change, not that often but unless you have software that will automatically update it for you, your going to have to do it manually)

you will also need all the correct ports forwarded on you router (both TCP and UPD)

3724 - 3724
80 - 80
3306 - 3306
8129 - 8129
8093 -8093
6112 - 6112
6881-6999
3036 - 3036
8050 -8050

you will also need to update your hosts docs which you can access by going to start>run>Then type: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc\ and hit enter

open this in notepad and add (or edit if it is already there)

127.0.0.1 localhost
YOUR COMPUTERS IP Addiction.is-a-geek.net
YOUR EXTERNAL IP Addiction.is-a-geek.net

save this file

depending on how many computers you have on your network you may also have to update your computers IP address in the hosts file, you can find your computers IP address by opening up command prompt (start>run>cmd) then typing in "ipconfig" without the quotes. you will then also have to update the forwarded ports on your router to match your computers new IP address.

all this information can be found in Scyther's helpful guide

credits to him where they apply

<Realm1 Name = "[]D V []D Addiction"
Address = "addiction.is-a-geek.net:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

done but now im getting the "Logging into game server" then back to server selection /= wont get passed it

[roguesownu]

look at the edit on my post, if all that has been done and you are still getting errors let me know

[hotandsekc]

ya thats the 2nd guide i tryed, which should have been my first =p ill +rep you and him both if it works ill go try that (:

[roguesownu]

just to let you know I have had times where I did EXACTLY as the guide told me and it still didn't work. After about a week I decided to switch from DynDNS to No-IP.com and it worked perfectly. Don't do anything different except you might have to delete your host at DynDNS if you want the same one at No-IP.com

NOTE: not sure about DynDNS but at No-IP.com you have to update your host at least once every 60 days I believe in order to keep your account active

EDIT: Good Luck

hm still getting stuck at Loggin into game server... you think it would happen to be something else? maybe another config file, i mean i did edit some files but i tryed to change them back as best as i could remember.
also wouldnt someone else be able to log in at least if i have all that correct(public wise)? but still getting the same Loggin into game server error?

Try checking and make sure your remote passwords are the same. If they are. Change them yourself. Make sure they match ^.^
