Question by Pierre 1 · Dec 03, 2011 at 11:17 AM · networkconnectportip

Connect to server over web

Hello,

A small question here:

I have created a server and I can connect easily on it on local network. However, when I ask a friend from a remote place to host the server and that I try to connect to it, I fail. I tried on several ports (including 8080) with no success.

Is there something special to do for connecting across another network ? Or is the problem should come from port forwarding / firewalls and stuff like that ?

Thanks by advance,

Pierree

Supposedly the $$anonymous$$aster Server provides functionality to make this work easily, but I've never actually gotten it to work properly (for various reasons) so I'm honestly not sure!

If i understand it right, the $$anonymous$$aster server is a server used to list and access a number of servers for your game. I can try using it, however I only need one server running and I wonder if it would be really necessary.

That was just a problem of port forwarding. :)
