xianjiang · Post by **xianjiang** » Thu Sep 16, 2004 5:03 pm

Well i tried to host a private server.. I followed all the steps at hbss.tk But to no avail.. I couldnt find the ip to edit.. The hbss.tk "find my ip" thing is down.. You found it ? good ! Open one each of them .cfg files with "notepad" and replace other IP address(123.123.123.123) to your own IP address. Check your IP address here. Anyone can tell me how to find the ip manually thks..

You have to change gserver.cfg,hmlserver.cfg,worldlserver.cfg,andgateserver.cfg files.Open them with notepad.Edit the IP in there to your IP.You can find your IP here <a href='http://whatismyipaddress.com/' target='_blank'>IP</a>

yeah but u will use both external and internal IP's if you are behing a router.

Otherwise u only use ur external ip, which you put in all the .cfg files

drunk already included one web site which shows ur ip...

and plus, the other way to find ur IP is:

START - RUN -- cmd -- ipconfig.

that gives you every thing u need to know

easyer: (well this is the way i use)
1) windows key + R
2) type command or cmd
3) when the dos menu pops up type ipconfig

it shows the mask/real ip/ and the other one...

[CONFIG]

gate-server-address = 62.16.184.207

gate-server-port = 6502

game-server-list = 62.16.184.207
game-server-list = add map hosters ip here
game-server-address = 62.16.184.207
game-server-port = 2101
build-date = 1126

accept = 62.16.184.207
accept = add map hosters ip here

Maybe this the part i went wrong then pple couldnt connect to mah server.. Should i edit 2 different ips into the "62.16.184.207" and the "add map hosters ip here" Coz b4 that i was editting the same ips for both of them.. So which should go into which.. I did the run == cmd== config and came out 3 ips.. mask/real ip/ and the other one... So which should go into which? btw the 1st and the 3rd ones are the same arent they

.. Thks for ur help!
