this is the host file from other computer, is this correct?


Host File (others)

Code: Select all

# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.## This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.## This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one# space.## Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.## For example:##      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server#       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host # localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.#   127.0.0.1       localhost#   ::1             localhost#127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com#127.0.0.1                   practivate.adobe.com192.168.1.36 l2era.servegame.com

afaik, you can't erm.. override domain name to domain name via hosts file, only domain name to ip.
(i mean, l2era.servegame.com L2authd.lineage2.com wouldn't work. pls correct me if i'm wrong)

so yea, your friends/players would be unable to connect.. unless they'd change their hosts file every time your ip changes.

possible solutions:
  • get a static ip
  • get a real server with static ip, would solve your guaranteed ping/bandwith probs too :-P
  • illegal stuff... not gonna explain that
