L2J Server

hello i recently tried to set up my own server for the first time...the sql went good and stuff....but i am stuck in some place.....i cant make others to log in my server..... as someone told me i have to let default-ipconfig.xml as it is make a host file with my externalip and use 127.0.0.1 in l2.ini file well thats ok for me... i mean from my computer i can normaly log to my server....but thats not happening to other ppl from distant networks everytime my friend tries to log the "please wait" window after u type the password just stays there forever !! ...can someone explain me the possible reasons of that ? maybe the ports of rooter firewall or smt that i should change on ipconfig xml file ? or anything ? just need some help guys really

mmmh hello ,
try opening router ports, i dont remember which ones exactly, but in the wiki i remember i saw it from there.
and check wether ur firewall prevents ppl to log in ur server.

i opened ports for 53 80 2009 7777 9016 2106 on vurtual servers..... and on firewall .....do i need to open on port triggering too or not ? any other possible cause of that happening? stucking on please wait logging in message? (for others always not me )

answered ur pm

you only need to open ports 2106 and 7777.

Why do you want to open 7777?

because it's the gameserver port?

somewhere i saw about 53 80 7777 2106 2009 soooo ? and thats for rooter and firewall also right ?

ports 53, 80 and 2009 are completely irrelevant to l2j. FYI Port 80 is for webserver (http).

Only ports you need to worry about with l2j are: 3306 (mysql), 9014 (loginserver/gameserver communication), 2106 (loginserver) and 7777 (gameservers).

Anyway as i mentioned earlier only 2106 and 7777 are needed to be open so players can login.

3306 should never be opened unless absolutely necessary.

if 3306 is open may somehow give access to someone in mysqql?

It is vulnerable, better keep it closed unless you really need it.
