How To Make A Server (or, Using TJW's Server in Windows)

[Amanieu]

In server.cfg
Add this: (if it already exists just modify it)

Code: [Select]

set rconPassword mypassword

Got server working, thanks a lot for your help 

[AlphaBetaAdmin]

ok, you said it puts a 'hole' in the firewall/router, does that mean that it's unsafe or is there security in the ports?

[blood2.0]

no all spy ware and stuff just port forward them selfs just turn off your firewall it does nothing really but you should scan a little more often for threats 

[Zero]

please someone help me!!! I forwarded these ports: 30710 for my server port, 30720 for the default one and 32123 for the guide. My static IP is 192.168.2.136 so i connect to 192.168.2.136:30710 and it WORKS!!!! but no one else can connect to it. i wanna know what to do so solve this problem. My server says master.tremulous.net resolved to 208.116.49.110:30710 but i cannot connect to that at all.

2. Port forwarding through routers and firewalls.

At this point your server is running, but it is not necessarily able to receive incoming connections.  If you are behind a firewall or router, you will need to provide a "hole" in the firewall or router so that players from outside can connect to your server.

Firewalls come in a wide variety of forms.  Windows has a "software" firewall that is often turned on by default.  If you're running a server from your home and you have a router or wireless router, that router is probably acting as a firewall.  I don't have the time or the ability to detail every possible firewall and how to punch a hole in it.  But here's something to get you started:

In order for this to work, you need to do three things:[list=1]

    * You need to give your server computer a static IP address.
    * You need to set up your router/firewall for port forwarding a specific port.
    * You need to set your server to use the same port number you set in step #2.
      [/list:o]So, rather than take a long long time making a how-to for you, I did a few Google searches and here's what I found:

[list=1]

    * http://portforward.com/networking/staticip.htm - This page will walk you through one method for getting a static IP address with your router.  (You'll have to choose your operating system.)  Remember the IP address you set in this step, you'll need it in the next step.
    * http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm - This website will walk you through setting up port forwarding on various routers.  Select your router from the list.  (Each router has specific instructions for some games, but not Tremulous.  That's okay, the "Default Guide" for your router has everything you need to know.)  Make sure you read the instructions carefully and don't skip any steps.
      I suggest that you use a random port number like 32123 instead of the Tremulous default (I'll explain why later).  When you're done, your setup should look more or less similar to this:

      I left blank the spot where you need to fill in the static IP address you got in step 1.
    * Among your server files, you should have a file called tremded.bat (or tremserver.bat if you used my guide.  This file should be located at C:\Program Files\Tremulous\tremserver.bat.  You will need to edit that file using Notepad or Wordpad.  When you're done it should look like this:
      Code:

      tremded.exe +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg +set net_port 32123

      [/list:o]
      That's all!  When you run tremserver.bat, your server should start up and talk to the master server, and with luck that's all you need.

      Once you set up the port forwarding in the firewall, you can start your server, and players from everywhere will be able to connect.  However, YOU might not be able to connect without a bit more work.  See "Why can't I see my server?" below...


      3. If you can't see any other servers: a note on ports.

      You might need to set your server to use some totally different, random port like 32123, and do your port forwarding for that port.  Here's why: if you have an older, simple, dumb router, and you port forward the standard Tremulous port to your server, then your gaming machine might never be able to talk to any other Tremulous server.

      Let's say you have a gaming machine with local IP address 192.168.1.10, and your server has local IP address 192.168.1.20, and your server is set to use the default Tremulous port, 30720.

      If you set up port forwarding for port 30720, then ANY signals coming from the Internet on port 30720 get AUTOMATICALLY sent to your SERVER at 192.168.1.20.  Why is this a problem? Well, when your gaming computer talks to the master server (and most Tremulous servers), it sends signals out on port 30720 and the master server sends signals BACK on port 30720.  The signals you send out aren't affected, but the signals coming BACK, which are meant for your gaming computer, are routed by the Port Forwarding to your server!

      So your gaming computer can send signals on port 30720, but it can't receive any signals.  Only your server can receive signals on port 30720.  As a result, your gaming computer can try to talk to an outside Tremulous server, but it will never get a reply... because the replies get misdirected to your server because of your port forwarding!

      The end result could be that you won't be able to see any servers on the master server list at all!

      This is not a problem for all routers.  In fact, newer routers are smart enough to know what you want to do, and generally don't have this problem.


      4. If you can't see your own server.

      Most computers are not good enough to run a Tremulous server and client at the same time.  So, you probably want to run a Tremulous client on your gaming computer and log on to play on your server computer.  But wait!  Where's your server?  It doesn't show up in the master server list, does it?

      If your gaming computer and your server are both behind the same firewall/router, your gaming computer MIGHT NOT be able to see your server on the master server list EVEN IF YOU DID EVERYTHING RIGHT.  Some routers do this.  It's an unavoidable side-effect of port-forwarding.  In order to connect to your server you need to manually add your server as a "favorite" in Tremulous.  Put in whatever name you want, and set the IP address to 192.168.x.y:port#, where "192.168.x.y" is the server's static IP address from the port-forwarding step, and "port#" is the server's port.

Ive being trying to get a server to run but i cant seem to get anything to work i have tried like 10 different tutorial and it never seems to show up in the main server list it comes up with the sending heartbeat to master or whatever but it never shows up in the server list. i don't need a list of tutorials but i would like to know if any one has ideas or similar problems.
ive tried it on
windows server 2003 - now killed
linux - the killer
windows xp - different comp i play trem on this one
and yes i have followed the port forwarding part of the tutorial

Did you fetch a "New List"? Did you forward the correct port?

[Hugoagogo]

yes i did get new list even got multiple other friends to check it. i also checked it on the master server list thing in Firefox not the one that updates every 30 minutes, the instantaneous one and i did do the port forwarding part.

[Bissig]

Stupid question, but:

Did you try to connect to it directly via its IP? Also, did you set the right dedicated value?

[Hugoagogo]

think so

i can connect to it from on the network useing the local ip address but it is kind of screwy caus the map on the server is only the same as the map on the client for one map then it screws up

[David]

From your home you will probably never be able to connect via the internet IP, lots of cheap routers are broken for that sort of thing.
Whats the IP & port?

[Hugoagogo]

which ip internal or external and y do you need it the port was as the guide says a random port and was 37717 (i have also tried the default 30720)

[Divmax]

which ip internal or external and y do you need it the port was as the guide says a random port and was 37717 (i have also tried the default 30720)

He needs it so that he can try to connect to your server.

[Hugoagogo]

i don't plan for it to be a permanent server i cant run it all the time because the computer im running it on is overly noisy i though to of something that might be killing it what kind of port fording do i need i think i used udp or something like that

[Lux1]

I need help.

I have all of the server files in the correct place, as I can run my server on my local network with no problems at all. However, I cannot get it to show up on main list.

I both my external and internal IP addresses are static. I have port 30720 forwarded to my internal IP, 192.168.1.3. I run the command to set the port to 30720 every time I start my server, yet it still does not appear in the master list. I know this because I have tried connecting from my neighbors house, and I called a friend to ask him to try to find my server. It does not show up in the master list.

[Bissig]

Did you set "dedicated" to 2?

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

[Hugoagogo]

yes i got it working a bout a week ago now if only trem stat worked

[Bissig]

yes i got it working a bout a week ago now if only trem stat worked

Sorry, Hugo, I did reply to Lux1.

[Darth Futuza]

If I want to set the server up on LAN only, would I change the bat file so it says: +set dedicated 2  OR  +set dedicated 1  OR something else?

[Amanieu]

+set dedicated 1

[Radical]

I have vista and so my <user> directory isnt there, instead vista makes computer/C/users/"myname"/appdata(hiddenfolder)/roaming/tremulous. - I have moved tremulous to appdata without the roaming but I can't create a documents and settings folder as vista doesnt like it, says it will be moved to users but then doesnt create it in users. Im guessing this is the problem because i get this in console:

!readconfig: could not open admin config file admin.dat
using layout "*BUILTIN*" from list ( *BUILTIN* )

I also get:

ERROR: G_ParseSpawnVars: found  when expecting {

And i HAVE looked at the whole 6 pages but i did get the files from your links and im sure the files are in the correct folder.

plz help thanks:)

That error message comes when the qvm and tremded don't match. Use another tremded or game.qvm.

Ok i think i'm close, this is the first server i've ever tried to set up. I use windows vista. Please try to explain everything in simple terms or in relation to things explained in this guide. As far as I can tell everything is in accordance with this guide but here's what i get when i start tremserver.bat:

You clearly haven't read the forums too well, there's maybe 3 or 4 of you a week who get the same thing wrong. Search around the forums.
