Problems with connections.. - Sneerz - 04.06.2009
Ok, so I have a few questions.
1. I got my ip by going to "whatismyip.com" and i have forwarded port 43594, both TCP and UDP. I know they worked because i used to run another private server.
The problem is, I can connect from localhost - by typing in 127.0.0.1:43594. But, when I put in my ip, it continues to say "Retriving info."
I really need some help please.

just instead of putting the ip try putting
":7777" without the " "

Why 43594? Just use the default port as specified inthe server.cfg, 7777.
Most ISPs also don't allow loopback connections (accessing your public IP from within your network), so while you enter your LAN IP, or 127.0.0.1, others enter your public IP.
