1) Who would I ask to confirm/deny this? All the SSC zones seem to work fine on these directory servers...
2) I am aware. The IPs listing for the zone on the directory server (It seems to only be listing on ssdir.playsubspace.com and not on the other two at all) change every time I check it. Right now it's a 162.234 address, earlier it was a 64.220 address... The proper address should start with 173.9... And I know it's getting updates from my zone, because I changed the description in my server.ini, and the updated description shows on the directory server, but still the wrong IP...
3) Define "stock names"... Stock names where? Zone name? Description? the zone's name is SSUS Legospace.
4) I have 5 static IPs here. I know what my IP is... And because my machine is sitting behind a router, I set the ServerIP= setting in server.ini so it would report the correct IP, yet it does not... I think I might be ok if it erroneously reported my private ip address, or something like that, but it seems to be reporting random ip addresses, which have nothing to do wiht me or my internet connection.
12-13 years ago when I ran my own server, there were tons of people to ask when I ran into a jam, however, it now seems that there's no structure. If you're not talking about an SSC zone, then you don't have anyone to really talk to. Frustrating...
This should be a stupid simple thing. There are 3 directory servers, and my understanding is that all of the directory servers are open (meaning anyone can report to them). This should be a no-brainer, and yet it's giving me no end of headaches...
