ello people!
ive used winxp to host cs before now, it was easy. but wen more than 4 people connected pings went from 30-4000- it doubled as ma dads pc, so wen he used it this happened!
So, i had a 450mhz amd duron laying about wiv a 40gb hdd and i thought i may as well put it to good use..
so here i am wiv my linux box beside this pc. i have hlds 3.1,1 or somthing its not the 4.11 its def the 3.1.1
it works fine- ON THE LAN!
ya see, we have a home network, but we dont use a router, we use a switch, which means ma dads pc is the one wiv the 600kbps cable connection and his pc is running winXP.
So my linux server is connected into the switch- which connects it to the net via dads pc. It is running Redhat9 and i run on runlevel 3 (init3).
wen i type in the console ip, it ses localhost. wen i type in port it ses 27015..
The Problem:
Now the server works fine inside the lan, and shows up on other pcs wiv the ip: 192.168.0.11:27015
but from outside its somthing like 80.7.216.61 (which is our Netip):1036 or somthing..
On my dads pc i have set the internet connection to let 192.168.0.11 wiv the ports 27015 through. This still isnt making the server show up outside lan as 80.7.216.61:27015!
and wots more, even wen people do connect wiv 80.7.216.61:1045 (or wotever) they have to retry like 4 times to get on.
Also the port seems to change every time my dads pc gets reset..
please help me!!!!
ive searched through many a forum and i cannot fnd an answer!
Sorry about the long and complicated explanation but im nackered and i cant be arsed to edit it!
