Help setting up a dedicated server

[dave81983]

Hi,

I have downloaded the dedicated host and run it on my second computer. I have set it up so that it connects to the master server and it tells me it is "online". However when I come to connect to it on my main computer it says "clientconnect: connect failed". this occurs if i try to connect over the internet. When i try to connect over my lan to the same server i connect just fine.

Is this occuring becuase I am connecting through the same ADSL connection? Can other people connect to it?

The server name is "daves game". I will keep it running could someone please try to connect to it and see if it works?

Thanks

Dave.

Never tried the LFS dedicated server, but I get the same thing with rFactor - LAN connection is perfect, but can't connect over the Internet - other guys connect over the Internet just fine.

You cannot connect to your own internet-ip
