Cyan~Fire · Posted: Thu Mar 04, 2004 8:00 pm Post subject: Zone not on Directory list

A zone I'm running for someone is not coming up on the zone list.
It's connecting to:
IP=sscentral.subspace.inet.fi,sscentral.subspacehq.com,sscentral.sscuservers.net
NamePassword= //also tried a new one, didnt work
Port=4991

I'm running another zone on the same comp, does the server have a problem with 2 zones coming from same IP??

Should work as long as the server ports are correct. If you using the same biller for both the biller pass in the server files need to be the same.

It's connecting to the biller fine.

Which biller you running? If your running catid's then you might wanna try putting the server info into the zone.dat file...

MY Server, "your ip",server 1's port,,0
#MY Server
MY Server, "your ip",server 2's port,,0
#MY Server

Example

MY Server, 192.168.1.1,8000,,0
#MY Server
MY Server, 192.168.1.1,5000,,0
#MY Server

If your running a router then dont forget to forward the ports and turn off the Block WAN Request... Also some firewalls will block it from coming up so you would have to go into the firewall settings and forward them also... Hope this helps.

Have you tried changing the name of the zone?

Night_Fox · Posted: Fri Mar 05, 2004 8:23 am Post subject:

IP=sscentral.sscuservers.net sscentral.subspacehq.com sscentral.subspace.net

Make your own NamePassword for all the zone you host (should be the same)

Well, I was using the prefix SSCF, which did work fine on another zone, but didn't work on this one. I finally figured out probably 'SSC' was preventing it from being listed. So, I changed the name of both zones to 'SSDGT' and they both worked. But then the other zone owner didn't like that, I changed it to 'SSDT' and then only my zone worked. Weird.

I followed the How To: Make a zone! guide and everything was fine.
then i opened the subbil file and subgame2 and they were fine.
then i opened continuum cuz subspace isnt working and searched for my zone and it wasn't fine. i've tried waiting half an hour (playing zelda till boss killed me) and the zone wasnt there so it isnt that i didnt give it time.
I think it might have something to do with the subgame2 window but since
i dont know anythin bout what it means ill just post what it says below,

First off you needed to post this as a new post in the general section..

The IP was not the problem. Both servers were using the same IP list and worked fine.

okay well it might be the namepass because I had a similer problem because the namepass work like it takes all the characters before a space and that is what you have to set a pw for like SSG zones all of them have to have the same namepass if not it will not work and also for other networks. if the zone is on SSC you can do something like SSDT Blah (SSC)
