Thats the ip address i think you can do it with portforward.com's static ip setup thing.

"My firewall isn't blocking it" is usually an incorrect statement. If it's not a firewall it's either a routing problem or a wrong address.

Ok thanks,ill check my firewall again and i'm pretty sure the address is correct because i tried a different one and it said address isn't valid.
What is the program called that would be blocking my firewall if it is?

What address are you using and what computer are you trying to connect with?

If you're playing on the computer that's running the server, use the localhost address - 127.0.0.1
If you're playing on a computer that is on a lan with the server, use the internal lan address for the server. That will vary depending on your network but it will usually start with 192.168.
If you're computers are connected by the internet, you need to use the external IP address. You can find that using a site like "whatismyipaddress.com" from the server.

You will probably have to port forward if you do it like that.

For some reason I can't get any of the national tracks on my server. All of the other tracks work fine, and I named it what I had in the trackinfo file.

I remember chex saying he had to put quotes around the trackinfo in the args file for him to get them to work (the periods effect it I guess). I haven't personally tried putting any on my server though.

So like this for example? "trackfile/edmontonsx.trackinfo" I tried that and couldn't get it to work.
