It seems I am stuck not being able to set up a connection for others to my server, It works fine with the default settings, 127.0.0.1 in my hosts file. But without the externalhostname in the server.properties file I cant do anything about it. Any suggestions?

you should set your external ip in ipconfig.xml other way this only will work for localhost/lan

Thanks for helping me find this xD
Only which one do I modify for the InternalHostname?
<!-- LAN's, put old contents of InternalHostname here -->
<define subnet="10.0.0.0/8" address="10.0.0.0" />
<define subnet="172.16.0.0/19" address="172.16.0.0" />
<define subnet="192.168.0.0/16" address="192.168.0.0" />
</gameserver>
My internal IP is 192.168.1.100
Thanks in advance.

make it say this if your servers LAN IP is 192.168.1.100
<!-- LAN's, put old contents of InternalHostname here -->
<define subnet="192.168.1.0/24" address="192.168.1.100" />
</gameserver>
for instance, this is mine:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<gameserver address="70.120.235.219">
<!-- Localhost access -->
<define subnet="127.0.0.0/8" address="127.0.0.1" />
<!-- LAN's, put old contents of InternalHostname here -->
<define subnet="192.168.1.0/24" address="192.168.1.200" />
</gameserver>

I was reading through this post and saw that there wasnt actually a solution for me but
that there was the same problem....
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!-- Put old contents of ExternalHostname here, used by default -->
<gameserver address="68.144.14.67">
<!-- Localhost access -->
<define subnet="127.0.0.0/8" address="127.0.0.1" />
<!-- LAN's, put old contents of InternalHostname here -->
<define subnet="10.0.0.0/8" address="10.0.0.0" />
<define subnet="172.16.0.0/19" address="172.16.0.0" />
<define subnet="192.168.0.0/16" address="192.168.1.102" />
</gameserver>
