But I need this information urgently..
Ok suppose I am able to connect my client without any problems on LAN network.. how do I set it for internet players? Thanks

sorry man I have been unable to connect since sunday morning (mine morning anyway =P). If you still have my copy of the odbc registry, do the following:Quote:

Err... I didnt read the title =P sorry.
I was trying to do that, I guess there are 2 ways to fix the problem of connection from outside
1) connect the server directly to the internet (and I dont like that one, but I will try it if needed).
2) modify router/firewall configuration to do PRE/POST ROUTING to the A3Server. Thats the hard way, I have been trying to modify my iptables configuration to foward incomming traffic to the a3server, but obviosly I have something wrong, because I was pretty close, but I couldnt make it work.
At this point, I think there are 2 alternatives:
a) setup the firewall to do a MASQUEDADE routing (must be bidirectional): that is, the firewall will modify the IP packets, making the A3 server "think" the connection comes from your router.
b) setup the firewall to do a FOWARD routing (must be bidirectional?): a3server must connect to the internet, and the gateway must be setup, and I dont like this one, but I dont know why, its just a feeling, from netstat you will see each ip comming from the internet, but Im not sure if its the right way.
From my point of view the a) solution should work. iptables is one of the things I should have study, and now I face this problem =S
rudy.
This is what works for me, hope it helps..
I forwarded 2 ports from router, TCP3300 & TCP3550
On the server network card, under properties/advanced
add a second IP address matching your internet IP
then LoginAgent reads:
Then for ZoneAgent:Code:[VersionInfo]
HighVersion = 600
LowVersion = 100
[LoginAgent]
#This is your LAN IP
IPADDR = 192.168.xxx.xxx
PORT = 3550
IO_MODE = 1 ;// iocp = 1, block = -1
APPNAME = LOGINAGENT
AGENTID = 0
[LoginServer]
#This is your WAN IP
IPADDR = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
PORT = 3210
IO_MODE = -1 ;// iocp = 1, block = -1
[LOG_FILE]
GS_LOGFILE_NAME = ./LogFile/gs_log
LC_LOGFILE_NAME = ./LogFile/lc_log
DB_LOGFILE_NAME = ./LogFile/db_log
MAINPROCESS_LOGFILE_NAME = ./LogFile/mp_log
Code:[STARTUP]
APPNAME=ZoneAgent
SERVERID=0
AGENTID=0
#This is your WAN IP
IP=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
PORT=3300
[ZONESERVER]
COUNT=3
#ACCOUNT SERVER
ID0=255
IP0=127.0.0.1
PORT0=5589
#ZONE SERVER
ID1=0
IP1=127.0.0.1
PORT1=6689
#Battle Server
ID2=1
IP2=127.0.0.1
PORT2=7001
[LOGINSERVER]
#Ths is your WAN IP
IP=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
PORT=3200
I got my friend to connect to my server via the internet.. he was able to get as far as loading into temoz then his client hung..
guys.. remember to check the ZCINFO.txt in your Loginserver folder =)
Who have the debarkation machine?
