OK, Here is my setup!

Internet In (ISP) > Modem/Router

|

> CPU 1 - work PC (WinXP) (everything to do with editing, browsing, coding... whatever) IP: 192.168.1.68

> CPU 2 - Linux (Unbuntu) (just for editing and recording Music and Video) IP: 192.168.1.69

> CPU 3 - test PC (WinXP) (just a spare pc i use for testing purpose.) IP: 192.168.1.70

> CPU 4 - Server (WinXP) (HTTP, MySQL, FTP, WolfET, TFC, etc...) IP: External IP [98.66.218.89]

HTTP :80

MySQL: 3306

FTP: 21

WolfET: 27960

TFC: 27015 -> when TFC is running (Team Fortress Classic)

Now on CPU3 i have wolfet running (192.168.1.70) and I can play all day long from CPU1, CPU2, CPU3 and CPU4(local)

But! If run WolfET on CPU4 (server) I can ONLY play on CPU4 locally.

There is no connection from any other CPU.

But I can connect to HTTP,MySQL,FTP and TFC when TFC is running. From any CPU on this network.

Even out connection can be made to these system.

Yes gaoesa, It does work by using "/connect 127.0.0.1" and it also is listed in the "local" list of the HUD.

I just found out yesterday that I have a Static IP address.

Could this be the reason why it is not working?

OK so i did some Google Searching. And i cam up with "NETSTAT -a" that gave me a list of "Listening" ports.

As you can see, The port is open but for some reason WolfET (DED) is not listening on port 27960.

I think this is why no one can connect.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Scottie

Yes!

As you can see GameTracker can find the game and the game details.

But no one wanting to play can connect.

Like I said, it is very strange issue.

It looks like you are behind a gateway, are you? It looks like you obtain the address from the router via DHCP, that's why the client has to first go through the router to connect to you. If it is like this, you have to configure the router to allow the traffic on specific ports or place the server computer in DMZ.

the router in DMZ enabled. for that server.

I can run a Team Fortress Classic server and can connect no problems.

the http server works fine no problems.

all remote connections to mysql work fine.. no problems.

but!

if i open a command prompt (start > run > cmd)

then telnet 98.66.218.89 27960

Return:

Connecting to 98.66.218.89...Could not open connection to the host, on port 27960: Connect failed

yea! i stuck also!

What's the output of

ipconfig /all

?

I can connect and play locally. (same machine)

but not from a remote connection.( any other - even on same network)

seems when I run a Port Scan, port 27960 is not open.

now I do have it set in the firewall.

it is almost like ETDED.exe is no opening the port.

Well, ok.

Thank you for your help.

well in that case, no it is not behind a NAT.

the WolfET Server's IP is my public address.

im not sure i understand but it is setup like this.

ISP > DSL Modem > WorkGroup Station > Server (wolfET)

there is no visual access to the WorkGroup Station (192.168.1.XXX )

Can anyone help with this issue?

I am running WolfET 2.60b on a Windows XP SP3.

My server shortcut looks like this:

"C:\Program Files\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory\ETDED.exe" +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip 98.66.218.89 +set net_port 27960 +set fs_game silent +exec silent.cfg

I like the silent Mod very nice.

Anyway, for testing purpose.

Firewall - Disabled

DMZ Mode = Enable (all inbound traffic to server)

console output look like this:

Any ideas what is going on?
