Post subject: I go the problem!

It won't host the zone from my computer (that i made). Is there anything I can do...have a changed something, that i shouldn't have, or is the problem just in my computer/internet?

either you messed with the settings or you are behind a firewall. Read the documentation on your router in order to open up the necessary ports.

Post more information about your setup, like the content of your server.ini and subbill.ini files.

the passwords there, are incorrect with what I am using!

Oh, so maybe you have to make sure they're right!

Also, you really shouldn't mess with settings without knowing what they are for.
I don't even feel like going correcting your mistakes just because I'm tired of doing it, and because it's too much.

err..I mean they aren't the same IN THAT POST that what I'm using in the REAL server.ini, but it's saying that "Connection to billing server timed out" after it did connect

err...this suck...no..wait...I suck at this >.>

Make sure subgame2.exe and subbill.exe are running.

Quote:

[Billing]
IP=localhost

This has to be "localhost" because your billing server is running on the same machine as the server, an IP version of the local loopback ("127.0.0.1") is invalid here.

Quote:

[Directory]
IP=sscentral.subspace.inet.fi,sscentral.subspacehq.com,servers.sscentral.com

Not all of the directory servers in example ini configuration files are still valid.
You should not append your own IP address to the setting string, simply because you are not running a directory server.
Entries are supposed to be seperated by commas (',').

Quote:

[Directory]
Port=4991

Directory servers listen on port number 4991, not on any other port.

In subbill.ini, make sure

Quote:

[Misc]
Port=185

because you set Billing:Port=185 in server.ini.

At first glance,

Quote:

IP=sscentral.ds98.com,sscentral.subspace.inet.fi,sscentral.subspace.net,sscentral.subspacehq.com 84.230.143.190

Not really important to the problem, but as a general rule, you are missing a comma there, between sshq.com to the IP.

Also, port is 4991 and namepassword=cane.

And at [billing], unless the biller is at another pc, use "localhost" for IP.

People don't read that and mess with settings they shouldn't mess with.
Even if my checker was still up (which would only require me to delete a .htaccess) it wouldn't be used.

Anyway, does it work, "Rodes A.k.a AsdLsd"?
