Hi

I think you want port 7777 open for the server to be advertised but hopefully someone better will help out. I can't get my server past my new D-links router so I shouldn't really give advice :brilsmurf:

Hi Pomona,

First of all, you can get a lot of questions answered at http://www.unrealadmin.org

I used the public redirect for this longest time. You can see the information for it at unrealadmin. You can upload files. The problem is when they have troubles, it is crippling. Since you have no control over it, if they lose a hard drive, or have some other technical issue, you're dead in the water. And they can sometimes be down for a week! So I basically installed my own redirect. I have complete control over it. The problem is the bandwidth usage.

As for ports, yes, 28902 is the master server port.

I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have.

Thank you very much. I'm good now. I examined the adequacy of UnrealAdmin. But I purchased new WebSpace in Japan. Thanks.

If you want a really good tool for redirect, use this one!! Its a little app that's a redirect server checker. It makes sure the files on you unreal server also exist on your redirect. If the files are missing, it compresses and uploads them automatically! WOW!

I know how to set up Unreal Servers behind firewalls because I've done it with 2 different firewalls, Belkin and Linksys brands. I can set up a server from the ground up and help anybody that needs assistence in the matter. I have recent experience doing so and adding maps, editing the .ini file, and adding UTVote and other mutators is my specialty.
At your service,
