Zooker Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Currently I am hosting a 24/7 server, but there are times when I would host another closed server for a smaller group, or testing purposes. Is there a way to accomplish two servers behind one router? Is there a way to change the default port used by DCS?

HiJack Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Yes. By virtual server on your current server or another computer, and different PORT for DCS on that server.
Johnny_Rico Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 (edited) You will need to login under a different account on the PC to run another instance of DCS Note that runas will not work Then use a different hosting port in DCS, 10308 is default , maybe use 10328 Then just stick a password on the server or untick the public server button (to keep undesirables away) Then on your router forward what ever new port you are hosting on to the server PC , oh and make sure if using a seperate DCS installation that you allow it on your firewall Edited August 9, 2017 by Johnny_Rico METAR weather for DCS World missions Guide to help out new DCS MOOSE Users -> HERE Havoc Company Dedicated server info Connect IP: 94.23.215.203 SRS enabled - freqs - Main = 243, A2A = 244, A2G = 245 Please contact me HERE if you have any server feedback or METAR issues/requests
Zooker Posted August 9, 2017 Author Posted August 9, 2017 Thanks guys. It was staring me in the face the ability to change the port while setting up a server.

HiJack Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Thanks guys. It was staring me in the face the ability to change the port while setting up a server. 10308 and 10309 are used successfully without problems for many years. You may lose the 10309 server in your local server list but it is mostly available externally. Sometimes it is good to inform players about your IP: PORT settings in a ED post or on a website. :)
