Re: [hlds] Unable to HOSt because..
@gerald In the startup string add: +ip external ip for example: +ip 123.123.123.123 That should do it. @jose . really, how is a domainname going to tell an application that wants an *IP* which IP it should use? You need to use an IP address for this and not a domainname. - Original Message - From: Jose Pacheco [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Sent: Friday, October 06, 2006 1:56 PM Subject: Re: [hlds] Unable to HOSt because.. Hey dude it's really easy, you can simply get a free domain like www.no-ip.com or http://freedns.afraid.org i believe is one, there are more but you can Google that. And Srcds does work off a domain instead of ip as well. So that would be your best solution right now.

Re: [hlds] Unable to HOSt because..
if you want your server to appeare in the server list If you mean to have your server appear in the master list at valve: not relevant If you start a game server on steam (and it's properly configed/connected) your server will be added to the master list automatically. All a domainname does is to provide people on internet an easy to remember why to find a computer on internet (like www, ftp, email). Otherwise you would have to change your plublic ip manually in the startup line every time it is changed by the ISP Now I get it. ^__^ I tested it and that works indeed. I am so lucky that I have static IPs at my server and at home. #^_^# - Original Message - From: Jose Pacheco [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Sent: Friday, October 06, 2006 5:43 PM Subject: Re: [hlds] Unable to HOSt because.. No, the +ip 123.123.123.123 command in the start u is correct, but the domain would be if you want your server to appeare in the server list, so the domain would be setup to the computer/server that is hosting the srcds box. Otherwise you would have to change your plublic ip manually in the startup line every time it is changed by the ISP. Some like to make life easy some are masaquist, right? Or you can purchase a static ip if your ISP doesnt provide it free of charge. - Original Message - From: Sailor Mercury-sama (NL) [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Sent: Friday, October 06, 2006 6:21 AM Subject: Re: [hlds] Unable to HOSt because.. @gerald In the startup string add: +ip external ip for example: +ip 123.123.123.123 That should do it. @jose . really, how is a domainname going to tell an application that wants an *IP* which IP it should use?
