Hmmm, not quite sure how to interpret that problem, but I'm guessing that you want to have access to the server from the internet side, without opening your whole box up to all ports? You only need to route incoming port 23 at your router over to port 4000 on your server, or whatever port your game is running on...

A few days ago I have decided to start using the ROM server through internet side, so with the knowledge that port 4000 was the one needed I routed all tcp and udp to that port ( maybe this uses other protocol so I just selected "all types" for 4000 port to avoid problems ). the thing is that anyone can still connect to my ROM server from outside the LAN and I have even tried other MERC/ROM 1 based MUDs such as SMAUG but it did not work either. What can it be happening? Thanks in advance, M. 'MiSSigNNo' Camargo -- ROM mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe here ->>> http://www.rom.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rom
