no-ip/dyndns
#1

ok, so i have a dynamic ip, so i thought id make joining my server easier by linking my server ip into a dyndns and no-ip account (did both to see what worked), anyways, i have made the account and they have given me the address "bomsamp.sytes.net".....and that is supposed to link to my server....now, when i add this address to my favroites, it cant find it....ive opened my ports, and my server is online, its just not being found by using my "no-ip" link, why cant samp find it with my no-ip adresss.

is there something else i have to put in the favorites adress bar when i go to "add favorites" othen then "bomsamp.sytes.net" ?

It's most likely a problem with no-ip's side, not SA:MP. You should go through their FAQ and Support section.

no i think its something im doing wrong, because the address for no-ip AND dyndns arent working.....i dont get it, i went to the site, assoicated my ip with a url....is there any ports other then 80 and 7777 that need opened? i see ppl conecting to servers using urls all the time, what am i doing wrong?


in my favorites ive typed

brothersofmetalsamp.dyndns.biz
brothersofmetalsamp.dyndns.biz:7777
http://brothersofmetalsamp.dyndns.biz:7777
http://brothersofmetalsamp.dyndns.biz

none of them display my server, what gives?

Are you hosting this server on the same computer your playing it on? If so, then it obviously isn't going to work because your trying to connect to your external IP, the one that others are meant to connect to. ''

I just tried it and I can see your server.

well thats good to know, quick question...which out of those links did you use? im not sure if im supposed to put http:// , or just brothersofmetalsamp.dyndns.biz , or if im supposed to add :7777 at the end, whats the exact link you used to acess my server so i can use that one to advertise? like, what was the EXACT thing you put into the favroites address bar to make my server pop up there?

thanks so much for responding by the way
