What ports does the GPL server use? I need to set up IP forwarding on my Linksys router MadDAWG

In the Advanced section of the router setup, with at least 1.36 of the firmware, go to the Forward section and forward the following UDP ports to your IP address, you can select the static IP or the DHCP that your compputer has obtained. I assigned both of my computers static IPs. 6970-6971 to IP 32766-32786 to IP Now if you want to be able to do two computers, that is where I am having problems now. I know how to set it up, but I am unable to get GPL or VROC to use the different ports. SLG "MadDAWG" <[email hidden]> wrote: >What ports does the GPL server use?

sweet thanks! So VROC and GPL us the same ports then? right now if I fire up VROC I get the chat but its "trying to connect to server list" or something like that anyway. So if I set that up VROC will work I guess is what I'm asking :) I hope I have a slot left for this. I was there was more than 10 forwards. Are you wanting to run GPL server on 2 machines or serve on one and play on a 2nd? MadDAWG

All these ports should be UDP! > Now if you want to be able to do two computers, that is where I am > having problems now.

In GPL: [ Communications ] net_server_port = 32766 bcast_port = 6970 bcast_ping_port = 6971 In Winvroc, setting up a host, it's on the Server tab. Bart Westra
You can have two GPL servers behind a firewall. You have to tell GPL on one of them to use a different range of ports (through core.ini) and set up the gateway routing appropriately. Details are in my online FAQ. http://eaglewoman.simracing.dk/gpl/faq-online.htm#hostboth See the sections on Sygate and Linux gateways. You'll have to extrapolate to your router.

I know all this, but when I try it I notice that VROC or GPL is still tryin to have things sent to the default ports. I have given up on the idea of hosting at home as it is much easier to do at work. SLG Alison Hine <[email hidden]> wrote:
