the message in lfs says enough... tcp bind failed. pick a port that isn't in use.

What port numbers are you using? The 'default' is 29999.

// optional: InSim port
//insim=29999

Change that to this:

// optional: InSim port
/insim=29999

...and see if it helps.

Are you running the server on the same machine as you're running the InSim application you're trying to connect to it? If not is the InSim port open to external traffic?

edit: Btw, the reason I suggested the above change is that lines in the config file which have double slashes at the start are ignored. Only lines with a single slash are actually used by LFS.

Its not possible to let run an insim without an admin password

replace //admin=sion to /admin=sion
that will help 100%

Ok lets look at this logically.

The config you're pasting is for the dedi.
The screenshot shows the InSim client error and the full version of LFS.

Could you give us more information because it's all a bit unclear the moment.

* Are you running the dedi on your PC?
* Are you also running the full version of LFS on your PC?
* Are you using any InSim modifications on your full version of LFS?
* What connection details have you given the InSim client (presumably default of localhost 29999)?

Assuming yes to all these you need to:
1. Ensure that the full version of LFS and the dedi use different InSim port numbers
2. Ensure that you're telling the InSim programs to connect to the right place with the corresponding port numbers

Well, I tried help him through TeamViwer, however it was unsuccessful.

He got the dedi server running on his own PC, he also got LFS running on his PC. As IP he got his own IP which he got from some online IP thingy. The port he use is 29999.

I did all I could, but couldn't get it to work. So I suspect it's that famous port he needs to open on his internet so it can connect to his PC.
I tried to connect the insim to my own server, and it worked, so I can't think of another reason then the one I just said...
