L2JDP Revision 2785:

Hello , I'm able to log in to my server and I even have 245 ping at the server list. I've put my WAN ip on the "ExternalHostname" at the conifg files. It's all set and correct. But I give my friends to put in their host file "(MY WAN IP) l2authd.lineage2.com . A friend today tried to log in , he reached server selection screen and!!! ...Nothing.. Help please


P.S.:Yes , I HAVE searched how to make my server public but NOTHING.

to be honest...if you ask this "How to make the server public?" i recommend to not try it...

Why not? L2j was founded to only be alone in your server and don't play with some friends?

No...my target was that if you dont know how to make public server after reading configs or browsing forums to get informations, it can maybe be complicated for you and there is also possible you can harm your home computer.

Here's what I give to my friends:

127.0.0.1 localhost
(WAN IP) L2authd.lineage2.com
216.107.250.194 nprotect.lineage2.com

I've tried everything! I set the configs correctly .

Have you setup Portforwarding?
Are you behind a Firewall?

Yes, I have portfowarded , I have disabled firewall , anitvirus (NOD 32) is ok ...everything's set

K, how bout you post your configs then. You did set the addy in both the login.prop and server.prop?

server.properties:

# Bind ip of the gameserver, use * to bind on all available IPs

1. I hate it when people post configs. Makes searching for specific terms harder because you end up getting garbage threads where people posted configs.

2. When I cleaned up the properties files, I made sure to do my best to make the descriptions idiot proof.

3. If you can't manage to set the proper settings in your configs and firewall + router, like Aiki said, you shouldn't be running a server. This is the most basic thing you could do as far as running a server. It's not us being mean, but we're trying to get you to take a step back, look at what you're doing wrong, and fix it yourself.


Oh wait, wtf, you're not even using updated configs. Yours don't have the info that newer ones have. Maybe you should consider updating first, rereading the guide on the wiki and then see what happens.

I HAVE read the wiki , and which are the latest configs , the configs came with the datapack I've downloaded (http://www.l2jdp.com/nightly) . If I don't have the latest updated config then I'd appreciate you telling me where to get them.
I have a goal and I want to achieve it despite my age . If I have managed to run a private server and I can login to it , I'll manage to get it public too but , I need assistance.

Do you have a public IP adress ?
