Setting up KF2 on a Windows VDS

Post by Abdul »

Hi,

I was able to setup a KF2 server on an unmanaged windows 2008 vds, but I'm having a problem...

I can't seem to find the server on Steam (when trying to add it to my steam server favorites).

I'm guessing this is to do with Firewall/Port Forwarding, however I've never dealt with Windows Servers before. I have disabled the firewall (pretty sure it was disabled by default) and it still does not work.

I am able to connect to the WebAdmin and server status show's its online.

Any help would be appreciated.

Seems like it's working but it's binding the IP as the face/main one (even though I'm specifying a different one it should use in the command line when launching the gameserver)

Ignore this, I decided to just upgrade it to a Managed VDS. Save's me the hassle :twisted:
