Trying to resurrect my COD2 server

[Lowman905]

I need some help old friend......
I am resurrecting my COD2 server for my buddies at work (and you too if you want to play :-) It is a dedicated server running on a dedicated PC. I opened my router DMZ and entered in the local IP for that computer. All computers have static ip addresses in the house. I went to http://portforward.com/english/route..._of_Duty_2.htm and entered the settings exactly as shown with the only exception I had to put in an IP address before it would let me save. I used 192.168.0.103 for my dedicated PC so that is the ip i put in the portforward box on the router, is this right? When I save these settings from portforward I have no internet access. As soon as I uncheck the boxes on the portforward tab on the router the internet comes back. So the server is up, I can connect via LAN but it won't show up online. RCON will connect but it won't let me do anything. I know my problem has to be the router but I am stumped.........help me obi bobby kenobi, you're my only hope.

All you should have to do is turn DMZ on for the servers IP you are wanting to setup in your LAN
the DMZ auto opens all ports from the WAN to the LAN IP you set. If you are forwarding the ports you can turn off DMZ because you have the ports
open already. DONT FORGET TO SET IN WINDOWS FIREWALL AS WELL.

ALSO DO NOT FORGET TO PUT THE PORT NUMBER BEHIND THE START UP EXE IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE COMMAND I AM SURE I CAN FIND IT OR MAYBE REDHAWK HAS IT YOU ALSO HAVE TO HAVE DEDICATED SET TO 1 IN THE COMMAND LINE

SOMETHING LIKE THIS MAKE A COPY OF THE EXE AND THEN RIGHT CLICK ON IT AND EDIT I BELIEVE IT IS THE START IN BOX AFTER THE NAME ALREADY THERE WHAT SHOULD BE THE EXE LOCATION ON THE HARD DRIVE AFTER THE " YOU WILL HAVE TO ADD THIS LINE BUT WITH YOUR PUBLIC IP ADDRESS AND THE 28960 PORT

"cod exe location on your PC" +set dedicated 2 +set net_IP 208.74.121.106 +set net_port 28960

I have looked at everything again, the only thing that wasn't check was the public box on the windows firewall. Everything else looked good. I added the ip and port to the command line and now I can't see the game locally either. One thing that is weird, on the router DMZ picture my computer isn't listed there for some reason (192.168.0.103), it shows 100, 102 and 104. It doesn't show either of the PC's with a static IP. If Redhawk has that config for me to look at that would be great. Lowman905@shaw.ca

Here is my command line
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Activision\Call of Duty 2\CoD2MP_s.exe" +set fs_game FireHouse +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg +map_rotate +set net_ip 96.54.242.157 +set net_port 28960

If i put the ip/port in the command line on the desktop short cut it can't initialize the ip. If I stick the ip in the server.cfg (i put in 96.54.242.157) but the cod2 console shows 192.168.0.1 and i can connect locally only not outside my network.

COD2 CONSOLE
fs_game is write protected.
dedicated is read only.

After all that I changed my net_ip to 192.168.0.103 and it works. Weird, but it works. Thanks
