Problems with my Dedicated Server...

[Domino]

Okay, I made this awesome server called "Domino's INF Server" and I configured everything to my exact desire.

Now when I run it, It seems to work.. then I call me friend up to look for it and he says he can't find it. If there were hundreds of servers with INF running then I might believe him but there were only like 10 there at the time (it was 2 days after INF 2.85 was released)

My problem : my server will not show up on the browser.. no matter what I do! I tried to connect to it directly from another PC using the address like (unreal://ipnumber) but the console gives me like 4 IP address numbers for my site. one for mplayer.com and another for masterUT or something.

Could someone, especially Daddybone, give me a tip on how to fix this.

Thanks.

do you have the proper ports open?
if you do, then try this:


open up the "Infiltration.ini" and look for this area towards the top of the ini, make sure yours it set to "True"


[IpDrv.UdpBeacon]
DoBeacon=True<---------------here
BeaconTime=0.50
BeaconTimeout=5.0
BeaconProduct=ut

for some reason, it may not alway connect to the master server the first time, this is NOT an INF bug!! I have the same problem with my DX server and UT server, so you may have to restart the server to connect to the Master server

you can go to the INF server list page DaddyBone posted to verify your server can be seen by the public:

http://infonline.theonlinegaming.com/INFservers/

your server should show up in a couple of minutes, if it doesnt, then restart the server.

find the section near the bottom and make sure you are uplinking. It will look like this:

[IpServer.UdpServerUplink]
DoUplink=True
UpdateMinutes=1
MasterServerAddress=
MasterServerPort=27900
Region=0

that will send your info out to the main servers.

I find that www.planetunreal.com/theadminpage (http://www.planetunreal.com/theadminpage) has answered nearly all of my ded server questions.
