Kirin Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Greetings aces I am trying to setup a dedicated server for my frineds. It's running on a seperate PC on the same network that I used to run a pseudo dedicated DCS server before without problems. I deinstalled regular DCS and installed the dedicated server. I can launch it. And I can connect to it. After a few minutes I will always receive a connection timeout. Same with my friends trying to connect to it. I tried port forwarding for port 10308 which did not help. Any suggestion how to troubleshoot further? Kirin out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirin Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 Small update. I am able to host without problems from my main PC in regular DCS. If that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElementLT Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 have you tried disabling the firewall all together? (On the host PC?) not sure if this link would be any help but this was a good read. Coming Soon...

Kirin Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 have you tried disabling the firewall all together? (On the host PC?) not sure if this link would be any help but this was a good read. Thanks for the input. Interesting read. What makes me wonder is why I can host a game running on the gaming PC without problems. Only the dedicated server seems to act up. The server is visibly and just disconnects clients at random. Usually after 2min in a plane, longer if you stay just in the role selection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dFlow Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I have the same situation. Currently I am running a DCS dedicated server on a machine in my network (VM). On another machine I am playing. Now it happened to me that I got kicked out of my own server on a game session, where others remained on it - I got a connection timeout! on my own server in my own network! Strange enough a couple of mins later one of my guests had a timeout himself, where the rest of us remained on the server without any issues ... I don't believe that this is a firewall issue, as the game was able to connect for everyone and the server is visible in the list. Currently I am on the latest version of OB (17.6.2020) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docWilly Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I have the same experience as client - especially with the latest updates (not the one from June 17th which is not installed yet on my PC). Connection timeout around 2-5 min beeing on the MP server - which was very rare before. It´s not a matter of "ping" nor of my internet connection (100MB down/40MB up). Still have no clue whats going on. Ports are open (to be sure), firewall is not blocking.

I'm seeing the same thing here, so I was wondering if you found a solution. i7 6700k/GTX1070-8G/MSI-Z170A Gaming Pro Carbon/32GB DDR4 Kingston HyperX PREDATOR DDR4 3000MHZ Vengeance 1600/TM Warthog #6106/Samsung SB350_S27B350H/OCZ Agility3 SSD 128GB / Win10-64/TIR5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCNuse Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) Bump to an old thread; I changed to a new computer for my dediserver and the new computer keeps randomly kicking groups of people. 2022-05-04 01:58:59.527 INFO Scripting: event:type=relinquished,initiatorPilotName=XCNuse,target=Devil-4,t=2715.801,targetMissionID=100, 2022-05-04 01:58:59.530 INFO NET: remove: client[2] 2022-05-04 01:59:02.526 INFO Scripting: event:type=relinquished,initiatorPilotName=RAM 1-4 | Glue,target=Devil-2,t=2718.801,targetMissionID=98, 2022-05-04 01:59:02.527 INFO NET: remove: client[4] out of 3 of us on tonight, 1 person survived, 2 of us were kicked. My old computer never had this issue. For what it's worth, it's the same network, both are static IPs on a external static IP so I can guarantee that is not the issue. I realized this could have also occurred when I updated router as well, so found a different setting, NAT Acceleration (NAT Boost), have disabled that thinking it might have some effect... will attempt to update if I ever find anything further.
