Server not showing up in master list
« on: January 11, 2009, 09:28:39 pm »
Hey people,

I run a Tremulous server on Windows, people are able to connect to it by e.g. adding my IP to their favorites, but it doesn't show up in the master server list. The contents of tremserver.bat (the file I use to start the server):

tremded.exe +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg +set net_port 30720

BTW it sends heartbeats to the master server...

Any help? Thanks in advance,
Halcyon

the master server won't list any servers hidden behind a NAT, make sure you have port 30720 (udp) properly forwarded to your computer.

I know the port is forwarded correctly, because people from outside my network can join. :S

Check it again. Is it really both? UDP and TCP?

I tried "UDP" and "Any", but no success :(

keep in mind that most NATs choke when both the source and destination ip is behind the nat, so you might not see your server even though everyone else can.

You don't want to disable NAT, else you'll have no internet on your boxes.
Just get rent a server somewhere.

People outside of my network are also not able to see it.

Maybe the MasterList finally found a way to keep those fracking home-nated-dsl-server unlisted. it would be great.

The empty servers give the devs the illusion that their game is famous.

I guess I'm too pushy when I ask to stop those posts about how great it would be to have no home-hosted servers in the list, and at least try to help?  ::)

How can we help?
If dedicated 2 is set, and heartbeats are being sent, then is a nat problem.  Try temporally disabling your nat if you can, or tcp dump, preferably from both sides of the nat.

Two questions:

1 How do I disable NAT?
2 What do you mean by tcpdumping on both sides of the nat?

PS: I didn't demand people to help, my point was that it's better to at least try to help, instead of just saying how good it is not to solve the problem... Thanks to everyone that DOES help, though :)

It usually helps to start the server with the ip you get from your provider and prtfwd all relevant ports.
But in order to get it working you need to have a basic understanding of networking.
Since you lack it, you are out of luck, and need to read up.

I did start with the ip I got from the provider and port forwarded all relevant ports...
I already know basic IP's, subnetting, etc, what specifically about networking should I read up on? I'd be happy to do it.

Please make a screenshot of your routers port forwarding/nat config page and also do /ipconfig all in Windows console and post it.

Also, make SURE that any firewall is disabled. Be it the Windows firewall or things like Zonealarm etc...

Plug the computer straight into the modem with no router at all, and see if it works then.  If it does, its the NAT/router, if it doesn't, its the server.

I can't do that because I have a modem and router in one...

It's the first picture. The ports are forwarded to my computer on that port.

BTW Doesn't the fact that people outside my network can connect to my server mean that the port forwarding is right?

Are you starting trem with +net_ip 192.168.1.71?  It may be trying to bind to the other interface.

That is exactly what that picture does not show.
I am not familiar with trigger-based "translation", but shouldn't there be at least a trigger and a destination IP?

Yes I know it's a very weird router. The main table shows to which computer the ports are forwarded, and it's "192.168.1.71" (which is the right computer).

And a question I asked ealier but didn't get any answer to; Doesn't the fact that people from outside of my network are able to join, say that the port forwarding is correct?

Yes, unless they are tunneled through that hamachi VPN.

I can see why you think that, but no, Hamachi was turned off on both sides, and the other side didn't connect with the hamachi IP.
