Post subject: Can't get into my own zone :S

Everything works on my server, except i cant connect to my own server... continuum says: check if server is offline blabla
and my subgame2 says when i try to enter my zone:

client connection request from billing server ignored

i'm running this server on pc at home... i have 2 pc's connected to my router and a firewall (norton antivirus)

here is my server.ini maybe i did something wrong...

Norton Antivirus is not a firewall, it's antivirus software (duh, lol).

Set

to the IP address found on http://www.whatismyip.com.

[Billing]
IP=localhost

Because 127.0.0.1 is invalid for local loopback, you have to use "localhost".

I hope your billing server is actually running on port 185 (it probably is, because if it wasn't you probably would've got another error), if not, make it so.

Do i have to set the billing port to the same value as the port i used in other things? or do i have to leave it 185? and localhost means putting your own local IP there or just typ localhost?

and norton has firewalls you know

thnx for help

Norton does have firewall software, but Norton antivirus is not a firewall.
Norton Firewall and Internet security is/has a firewall.
I'm not sure what's included in Systemworks, but I'm sure Norton Antivirus is not a firewalll.

I think I said clearly enough that you should leave the billing port at 185.
As for the localhost question, look at what I quoted.
Just type localhost, yes.
