[TUT]How to make your Server public(NON HAMACHI)

[Mario]

PART 1:
Step 1 : go to DynDNS.com: DNS Hosting, E-mail Delivery, VPS Hosting and Other Services and make an account.
Step 2 : go to my services and click Add Hostname
Step 3 : create a Hostname which what ever you want. For this example I will use wow.servegame.org.
Step 4 : Where it says IP adress click the link uder that.
Step 5 : Copy the adress that was put into that adress. You will need it later. THIS IS YOUR EXTERNAL IP
Step 6 : Press Create host and your done with part one

Now go to start run and type cmd
When the window pops up type ipconfig
When it loads only look at -IP address this is your INTERNAL IP
Keep this window open





PART 2:

Step 1 : Downloading What ever repack you want.
Step 2 : Put it into your C: drive.
Step 3 : GO to C > Windows > system32 > drivers > etc > hosts and add these lines.

127.0.0.1 wow.servegame.org
INTERNAL IP wow.servegame.org
EXTERNAL IP wow.servegame.org

Remember to replace wow.servegame.org with what you made


you can find whats is your external ip at What's My IP Address?
your ip will be on top of the site.
If you dont have Static ip you will have to change third line everytime you connect to internet.


Part 3 - PORTS
You need to forward these ports:

8129
8093
3724
3727 (this is for voice chat, it is optional)
80 (this is for apache/your website)

On TCP.
normal router password is 0000

Part 4 - Realmlist.WTF and configuration file.

Step 1 : Go into your arcemu-realms.
Step 2 : Change the IP to Your EXTERNAL IP
Step 3 : Scroll down and copy and paste the bottom part. Where it says your names and Icon type and realm type.
Step 4 : Change

<Realm1 Name = "yourservername"
    Address = "127.0.0.1:8129" 
    Icon = "PVP"
    Population = "1.0"
    TimeZone = "1">

to

<Realm1 Name = "yourservername"
    Address = "your external ip:8129" 
    Icon = "PVP"
    Population = "1.0"
    TimeZone = "1">

Now go into your realmlist.wtf and change
Code:

set realmlist us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com

to

set realmlist wow.servegame.org

*note* for 3.0.3(and above) Servers or Clients your realmlist is in your WoW folder in Data > EnUS/EnGB

for 2.4.3 its just in World of Warcraft folder.

*remember to replace wow.servegame.org with whatever you made on DynDNS

I really hope this helped someone

127.0.0.1 wow.servegame.org
INTERNAL IP wow.servegame.org
EXTERNAL IP wow.servegame.org

You don't need, nor want, all 3, and you should not list your external. All you need is to map it to either 127.0.0.1 or your internal address depending on how you are binding your services.

Would be great if you could add in pictures

Hmm. for some reason - my router does not have anywhere I can forward my ports. All I can do is do the Firewall Ports.

Any ideas?

[enegue]

I managed to find a site before that gives you a thing you have to run and it will open up the ports for you. I'll let you know if I ever find it again?

Although, if you already gave 1 to Mario (which obviously deserved no rep for another set of LUA commands which has been posted by Runiker) then you can't give another here lol, I think.

<LogonServer Address = "worldofhellcraft.servegame.org"
