After my latest reset of the server it seems the direct connect address has changed.
It is currently
65.16.91.133:5124

After my latest reset of the server it seems the direct connect address has changed. It is currently 65.16.91.133:5124 I am out of town at this time. I will be away from the server and unable to change it back until my return on Monday. When the server is unattended for long periods and resets on it's own, sometimes there is a port conflict of unknown origin that advances the server port from 5122 to 5123 and if unchecked to 5124... I suppose it goes on to 5125, etc but it has never gotten that bad... having said that, the server will probably go down this weekend before my return.  Once I return please continue to use the usual IP, and accept my apologies for the inconvenience. Cheers! |

if you block the other ports shouldn't it be forced to stay on the right one? maybe try that...but it shouldn't have a problem with that port because ports are designated for certain applications...so nothing else should be using that one...wierd...anyways, maybe try blockin off the others?

Actually, blocking the ports would be bad. It's the NW Server program that advances which port it tries to leave through. If I block the port it advances to, then the program will not transmit to the internet. The best solution I have found is to open the ports directly where the program advances to, so 5122, 5123, 5124, etc... I am out of town though so if it goes past 5124 I think the server will still be running but you guys won't be able to see it because that port will be closed. This is a rare case where I have been out of town much longer than originally anticipated. |

<3 Justi.
You're just as awesome as ever. Hope whatever you left town for worked out alright. See you when you get back, and be sure to send me a TELL in game saying you're OK.
