Ok I think I am doing that and it allows people to connect to the server on a port or range of ports but the server still starts and sees that the physical connection on the HLDS is say 172.16.0.19 and it will publish that IP address to the master list, not the public IP address of 144.23.x.x.
The +ip argument promises to do this as far as I interpret the documentation but it turned out that the +ip command will not blindly publish whatever IP address you specify but it will only publish an IP that is physically on the HLDS machine. This is a security feature documented in a paper written by Yahn Bernier sometime ago. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Gilbert, Doug Sent: Monday, October 15, 2001 11:15 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [hlds] workaround for HLDS Firewall / IP issue - any suggestions appreciated You don't need to use the +IP command. On your firewall you need to have a NAT translation setup to translate the internal address to the external address.
