Installing a dedicated Unreal server

[use...@my-dejanews.com]

I have installed a dedicated unreal server with all the appropriate
parameters:

E:\Unreal\System\Unreal.exe DmFith.unr -server

In the testing phase, before I unleash this beast to the public, I am having
some friends connect to it to see how it plays. Unfortunately with numerous
attempts by different people, nobody can see the server.

I do have this running on the internet, and everyone has the latest patch
(2.17).

If there is something I am missing, please direct me in the right direction.

I have the exact same problem and so does a friend of mine. We are both

present. On the lan, it runs fine. But people outside our LAN can not see the
server to connect to it. We;ve tried everything and have seen no response from
epic about it.

Anyone!?!!?

Go back to v2.09 or the original version from the CD. Unfortunately, the v2.17
screwed up something with network, especially LAN.

I figured out how to set up a dedicated server.

Open up the unreal.ini file
serarch for the following lines

ServerActors[1]=<there will be something here, can't remember what>
ServerActors[2]=<there will be something here, can't remember what>

Change to

ServerActors[1]=
ServerActors[2]=

Enjoy...
