Help Please: Making server public without hamachi

[viperguts]

I have read a lot of posts on how to get my server public without hamachi.
I am using a router and have forwarded the ports to my internal ip. I can login in but my friends get "unable to connect. Here are my configs.

# not register.

# AllowedIPs
# This section MUST be completed, otherwise all attempts to link your servers will fail.
# These "Allowed" fields are a space-seperated list of CIDR-form IP addresses that are allowed
# to make server connections to your logonserver, and register realms.
# For example, everything in the 127.0.0.* range would be:
# 127.0.0.0/24, as 24 of the bits must match the 127.0.0.0
#
# To allow a single IP,
# 1.3.3.7/32, would allow only 1.3.3.7 to connect as 32 of the bits must match.

# AllowedModIPs
# In the same form as AllowedIPs, these are the IPs that are allowed to modify the database
# (adding bans, GMs, account permissions, etc)

only part of the world config--if u want me to post it all just let me know

and now hosts:





127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost

127.0.0.1 dydns
192.168.0.11 dydns
192.168.0.1 dydns

I have tried different ips here. Such as my external ip, my router ip, and my internal ip but haven't gotten it to work.


Please help me I have tried tons of stuff. The above configs are what I currently have. Thank you


oh and the realmlist on mine and others is set to dydns too

[Sega1964]

<Realm1 Name = "Theo's Ultimate FunServer"
Address = "dydns:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

Should be

<Realm1 Name = "Theo's Ultimate FunServer"
Address = "127.0.0.1:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

<Client MinBuild = "8606"
MaxBuild = "8606">

also may be the problem if they have 3.0.3 && Wotlk that is making it only 2.4.3 Clients and also please post your Realms.config

and wrap your configs in[ code ]

[Ironmage]

<Realm1 Name = "Theo's Ultimate FunServer"
Address = "127.0.0.1:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

If I'm correct you change that to your realmlist that you chose from w/e web.

[Megadeadlord]

If I'm correct you change that to your realmlist that you chose from w/e web.

no change it to your external IP address (if you dont know what that is you should not be making a server lol)

[Sonic Waffle]

Make sure you have the latest core, maps/vmaps, database, and clients.
(Things in red are changed by. Change you Dynamic Address too)

<Realm1 Name = "Theo's Ultimate FunServer"
        Address = "DYNAMICDNSADDRESS:8129" 
        Icon = "PVP"
        Population = "1.0"
        TimeZone = "1">

And...

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "ascent"
             AllowedIPs = "127.0.0.1/32"
             AllowedModIPs = "127.0.0.0/32">

And...

<Client MinBuild = "8606"
MaxBuild = "9999">

Also please use the code tag, thank you.

[Sega1964]

no change it to your external IP address (if you dont know what that is you should not be making a server lol)

Should be 127.0.0.1 and why post the samething I just said? idk..

[viperguts]

realms config
[<LogonServer Address = "127.0.0.1"
Port = "8093"
Name = "Default Logon"
RealmCount = "1">
]

[<Realm1 Name = "Theo's Ultimate FunServer"
Address = "127.0.0.1:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">
]
I have tried the suggestions of these posts and then some. Now when I change the realm address I get the realm loop. I can find a way to fix this the realm loop tomorrow hopefully. I found the fix last night. I've done so many changes I don't remember how I fixed it before. BTW, all my friends have 2.4.3.


logonserver config:
[<LogonDatabase Hostname = "localhost"
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">]

[<Client MinBuild = "8606"
MaxBuild = "9999">
]


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


hosts:

127.0.0.1 dyndns
192.168.0.11 dyndns
external ip dyndns


This is my current configs. Like I said I have changed them around a good bit since starting this thread. I would like to get away from hamachi because it wouldn't let me online for a half hour or so before (for my mangos server not this one)
Idk if I should just go with hamachi or look for a good mangos release (non RotlK)
BTW, for my mangos server I had to setup another user and put my hamachi ip in through navicat and allow global permission to get it to work. Would I need to make a user with my dyndns as the ip to allow people to connect and access the server?
Any help or suggestions? Thanks again

BTW how do I use code boxes like the rest of you?
