192.168.0.0/16 (192.168.0.0-192.168.255.255) is a private IP address range set aside by RFC 1918. Those IP addresses are not routed on the internet. You have some device that is translating between your internal LAN's IP addresses (192.168.X.X) and Your external IP (at the time you sent the above email it was: 65.173.78.130). This process is called Network Address Translation (NAT). You need to configure that device to forward incoming connections to 65.173.78.130 to your server's internal IP address (let's use 192.168.1.1 as an example). The exact process to setup that forwarding will be specific to your NAT device (firewall, router, modem, whatever). Once that forwarding is setup, external players will connect to: 65.173.78.130. Players on your LAN will connect to: 192.168.1.1. -- Hexis www.hxxl.com _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
