ok, we have got it all figured out, except for one thing; we are trying to make the server secure, and we are using a firewall to do so. The only thing is, the firewall is making it so that noone else can join. Do we use TCP/UDP, just UDP, or just TCP? we have tryed several combinations, but none seem to want to work. I beleive that this will be the last problem too. I hope so at least.

Or, you can specify the server in when launching the client via the command line, like so:Avion wrote: If your server is not on the metaserver and not local - you need to know the host name of your cf server and have to be able to resolve it from your client...
gcfclient -server <server_name or IP> -<options>
Example: gcfclient -server metalforge.real-time.com -cache
True, but what I meant is that you need to either know the IP of the server or be able to resolve the name (a host name record or DNS entry...).leaf wrote:
