Posted: Sun Oct 23, 2005 3:34 am Post subject: Remote Biller Connection |
|
|
|
|
I'm currently hosting 2 zones and 1 biller on my server. I'm having someone host their zone, but use my biller.
Here's the problem:
I cannot connect to the zone that is being hosted on another server, but others can. It's green, has a 60-80ms ping from Continuum, and it shows others are in the zone. When I try to connect, the biller doesn't even recognize that I'm trying to connect to the zone, yet I can communicate to others from my zone, to the zone I can't connect to.
Anyone have any ideas why I can't connect? Ask more questions if needed. _________________ SSE Network Administrator |

I'm not hosting that zone, but I asked the guy who is. He said that nothing shows up on subgame about me connecting at all. |

I can enter. Trace it. Remove it from your list and re add it again and try to enter it. |

If I didn't have permission to enter, it would say something along the lines that I don't have permissions. |

That doesn't help me much Cyan. I can't think of any reason why I can't connect to his zone. He can connect to my computer, and others can enter his zone. It's green for me, and shows who's in it. I can trace it, and that works too.
Could it be possible that he has something blocking my IP? |

Have you contacted the zone owner at all about it? |

Simple: all connections from the same IP address of the billing server is treated as a connection FROM the billing server itself. This means as long as subgame thinks you are the billing server, you cannot also be a client.
This is also why some users have problems connecting to a zone on their own server. |

But the billing IP IS set to my IP address. The biller is run on my server, subgame is run on another server in california. I live in Georgia. |

What he said was if you run the biller on your computer, then you can't connect to any server that is using that biller. |

I have to disagree on that 1. I connect to the zones I host all the time on the coputer that hosts them. |

You're also running the biller on the same computer though. _________________ Hyperspace Owner

But I've got a server, and a home computer. And I've been able to do access zones that use my biller before. I've also used a biller and hosted my own zone, and the guy who ran the biller was able to get in my zone. |

Sorry about the bump, but I was thinking.
Would this problem have anything to do with his [Directory] in the server.ini? |
