friends can connect but i can't

[Deeth]

Thanks to everyone who helped. I'll try to find everyone to +Rep'em.

I got my server working (finally). But, another question-- will these servers work for Mac?

[Fireblast]

not sure but you can try..

[Bigdog]

Just wondering about that guid.

I have a huge project to do and need to know i can get on. at this point, its just luck if i can connect.

This is from the arcemu-world file. What is it?

# GM Client Channel

# This should be set to 'gm_sync_channel' for the My_Master addon to work.
# Default: gm_sync_channel

<GMClient GmClientChannel = "gm_sync_channel">




Is this what i need to add to my hosts file?


127.0.0.1 gm_sync_channel




I may be way off. I really need to get this connecting and im trying to think of everything i can. The good thing is that by the time i get this working, I'll have a full education on how it all works.

its how you answer tickets, do /join gm_sync_channel

once your in that channel do

.gmticket get (im not sure what it is for arcemu anymore lol)

There, thats whats thats for

[Bigdog]

well what do i have to do (in detail) to get Vista to "loopback" consistantly.

without changing config setups, wether i connect or not is random. I have to say this is in Vista.

How can i "hot-wire" it to work every time?

[lilbdiablo12]

Have you tried the 2 realm loopback?

[Bigdog]

Yes, it seems to have no effect.

I serriously believe its a Vista setting.

The Network connections fix sounded exactly right.

The problem with that is when i attempt to put in the IP, it tells me that i cant use 127, and that its for loopback... well thats exactly what i need it to do.

In Network Connections > Hamachi > Properties > Internet Protocol Version 4 Properties (general tab) the first is set "Obtain an IP address automatically" I was told to change this i think, yet cant make it accept 127.0.0.1

The next section down is set "Use the following DNS server addresses" i set preferred DNS server to 127.0.0.1 and no alt dns serfer.

I did nothing with the "Alternate Configuration" tab.


Note: This is the Hamachi Network Connections Properties.


If someone could straighten me out about how to set "Use the following IP address" to the right #s that would rock. The more detail, the better.

[Bigdog]

what is the best startup sequence?

sql
apache
logon
world?

world logon?

dunno?

should i start logon a nd world at same time?


Ideas?

[Bigdog]

/cry



forget everything, i need the harbor. Please post links to current or future repacks.

Try changing ....

<LogonDatabase Hostname = "localhost"
Username = "root"
Password = "panex"
Name = "ascent"
Port = "3306"
Type = "1">

to


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


Also change ...... Add what is in red to your Hosts.ics file.

# 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
