Hosting a Dedicated Server Guide

I've got the server running and 'stats' reports that there were at least 2 people in the server. But I can't see the server in my own server list, which kinda sucks. Any advise? I have port forwarded 7240-7245 and added firewall exceptions.

Can you see anything wrong with my config(see spoiler)?

Oh, to everyone: Make sure there isn't a space on the final line of your ban txt file or it bans everyone!

Wait what?

That space is supposed to be there. It is needed for new bans done ingame, so it starts on a new line with a space in front of the number.
If you put the number one ( 1 ) somewhere non commented it will ban everyone, i don't know about other characters, maybe tabs? But spaces are fine.

Hmmm, last night the PWMOD_Australia server banned everyone including myself directly after I banned someone. Checking the ban_list.txt I could only assume the single space on the final line caused the problem, since once I removed it the problem disappeared.
 
I can't see it in the LAN list either, I'll try again now allowing 5 minutes for it to search.


Edit: Nothing - any ideas?

sorry for double post.
 
I'm using VPSSquad now - RAM=512(1024 bursted)  Bandwidth=350GB in Germany - I've requested a Debian 5.0 Lenny (32bit) operating system. Will that work well with your Linux guide? ((They haven't set the OS yet and I don't seem to have access quite yet so I haven't had a chance to test it))


Edit: P.S - Sorry for the double post :\
 
Edit: Sorry if this is a silly question, but how do I stop the server, without having to restart the VPS? Do I just re-type the same start server cmd?

Edit2: Servers using 300mb ram so it must be running, shame I can't see it.

For edit:
execute:
pkill wineconsole
to kill all the servers currently running, if you only want to kill one just type:
pkill <processid>
To find a process id look in the program top.


For second edit:
Make sure you did the port thing properly, also opened the port in your linux firewall. (check some manual for your distribution)

Also did you add that command set_add_to_game_servers_list 1
to your config file?
 
Hey,

I need to set up a 200 player server, how would I get that done?
I can only seem to get 30 max atm (or close to 30 cant remember off top of head)
I also am Unable to find a was to change the time lit.

I think this was the wrong place to post this. Plz go to this if you want to help. (http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,132939.0.html)

Thanks!

I've adding firewall exceptions and port forwarded my laptop, but not the VPS - I was wondering about that earlier. But before I try any of that I'll try the newest dedicated files as it's still running on 1.127 at the moment as Steam is downloading rather slowly.

Also did you add that command set_add_to_game_servers_list 1

Yep :p
to your config file?

Thanks for all the ongoing help by the way, muchos gracias :p

Edit: Do you know if Steam causes issues for finding servers? I couldn't see my server yesterday, but 20 people had joined it. Today, on the Steam version, I can't see it and nobody is joining it. Thoughts?

Edit2: Oh, two people are in it.
