I've read hundreds of posts with regards to this persistent problem ... I'm still stumped.

 

Here is what I've done

  • Made sure that my router forwards the ports required by DCS
  • Made sure my firewall is not blocking the traffic (I turned off Norton and Windows Firewall to take them out of the picture)
  • Made sure all machines (server and client) are all on the same version of DCS
  • Made sure all machines were using IPv4 with IPv6 disabled in Windows
  • Made sure my internet provider doesn't use DS-lite to connect me with the internet
  • Used http://www.canyouseeme.org to make sure the port 75.190.210.172:10308 can be seen ... it can.
  • I entered the local IP of the machine into the MP Connect By IP option ... 192.168.1.xxx:10308 ... still cannot connect to the server.
  • Made sure the Public check box on the server is selected.
  • Made sure the server can be seen on My Server List (go to Profile then press the My Servers). The server comes up in the Local Web GUI user interface when the hyperlink is clicked on.
  • Rebooted the server many times

 

Not only do I not see the server in the MP dialog ... I cannot enter the server's IP (Connect By IP button) address to connect to the server either "Server Offline" or "Address Not Available". 

 

This was working swimmingly until the last update ... now ... not so much.

 

Thank you,

 

CT

 

Noting much to see in the dcs.log file either ...

Yes ... each port forwarding entry has the TCP/UDP option selected

 

Thanks for wading in ... this is going to be a rough one I fear.  Maybe I should re-install DCS Server ... the nuclear option.

Problem solved ... blew everything away and reinstalled the DCS Server software from scratch ... CHAOS's Hog Pen is back up and running.

 

Thanks to all that weighed in.
