Ok i have my server up...well i can get on it and so can my house hold but my friend can't connect did i do something wrong?
either you forgot to set up your NO-IP, forgot to forward your ports (If you have a router, or if the server is behind a Windows ICS PC.), or you didn't setup your config file to accept connections from your no-ip address. IF you are using MaNGOS you also have to add your no-ip to your SQL realmd DB. (Its where you named your server something other than MaNGOS)
Alright i do not know about this NO-IP i am running ascent and i have the ports open i don't know if they need to be open to TCP or both or the other thing. Please do go on.
If you didn't set up a no-ip account or a dynamic DNS account then your "Friends" have to set their realm list to something different every time you reconnect to the internet. TCP should be all you need, unless you are running the VOIP portion of the server which runs on UDP from what I've read. And once you configure your server the dynamic dns or no-ip address you registered for goes in the "realms.conf" file under this:
<Realm1 Name = "<Server name goes here>"
Address = "<Your no ip address goes here>"
Icon = "PVP"
Colour = "1"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">
Wait wait wait wait wait They cant get on the page to make an account TO my server they can log on my server just fine they just can get on the page to make the account i have to do it and i have the page up they just cant connect to it

So this has nothing to do my router? i have all the ports needed to be open on that other then that idk.
It may not have to do with your router. It may have to do with your ISP. I personally know Verizon blocks users from hosting Websites. So port 80 is blocked. You can run a webpage on any port though, you just have to specify that after the address... like Http://famine.servegame.com:8080
the :8080 refers to the port the webpage is on. Apache out of the box is setup for port 80. Like I said before, you can change that in the apache.conf file, and it can be any port you wish. THEN you will have to forward THAT port to your server from your router.
Apache? where is that my computer is unable to find it.
Generally located at:
C:\xampp\apache
