ServerIP=localhost
go to www.whatismyip.com and put the ip from that site in place of localhost

ServerId=4483
change to 9000

[Billing]

IP=127.0.0.1
change to localhost

And also; do not add your zone from the server list.

Click Zones.
Then click Add Custom.
-
Type any name you want. It doesn't have to be the name you have in Server.ini. Only you will see this name.
-
Now in the IP box you type 127.0.0.1
-
For Port, type the same port as it is in server.ini.
-
Thats only if you are running it from a local host.

Well, it doesn't really matter since all he wants to do is connect the zone.

Um... basically I have the excact same problem... some advice please

I guess you should change this:
Billing:GroupId=1

I don't see any other mistakes that could cause big problems.
What's going wrong?

Did you try entering it through your local loopback (127.0.0.1)?

chagned group id...

what do you mean entering from local loop?

edit: Sttill not working atm

Try connecting with "Add Custom Zone" and your local IP. (If it's the exact same problem, and you have 2 computers, then you'll need to use your LAN IP, and not 127.0.0.1.)

I guess that's what I get for answering while in a hurry.

Sorry, missed that.

How did you solve it?

I have a problem related somewhat to this post. I have the exact same setup (aside from the port number, passwords and the corrections that have been suggested) that these gentlemen have posted but, the result is a little different. My zone is green and when I try to get in a window rudely interrupts my connection saying that I do not have permission. suggestion(s)???

Did you follow the instructions in "how to update.txt"?

(MGB, I think that should be combined with the readme. As little as people read the readme, I think they read it more than some random text file.)
