Topic: I can't connect, please help.

[The_Joker]

I just reinstalled OP and can't get connected to the dynaverse.  I've changed the wonserversetup.gf file using both the ip address and also with the blackfleet.net addresses, yet I keep getting a firewall message.  what am I missing?

Thanks.

[Rod ONeal]

I'm having the same prob. Would someone mind listing the new settings needed again or point us/me to them.

Thanks,

I also know that the *OLD* Windows XP Firewall can mess it up!   I don't know about the new Windows XP firewall, I think you have to set it manually to allow OP.

You can also Turn if Off, however, it's safer to configure it, or find an alternative to Windows XP Firewall.

I post this becuase that was MY screwup after a looong discussion! I left it on unknowingly!

Yes, the new settings that come with the XPSP2 allow you to set certain programs to access the internet, I set mine to allow several games, they all work fine even with the XP firewall running.

After installing the XP service pack, open your control panel. You will see a few new additions, XP firewall settings, and other security controls, etc. Been playing around with stuff figuring things out.

*Manuel? We don't need no stinking manual!*

That's usually how I work things out too, but sometimes the manual is handy.

Yup, I saw that and just turned it all off anyway, lol. I just hadn't tested the programs permissions as that is the only obvious new feature in the firewall. drb just confirmed it works (for D2 use anyway) as well.

I've confirmed that the windows firewall is not on.  In this directory:  C:\Program Files\Taldren Software Inc\Starfleet Command Orion Pirates\MetaAssets\ServerProfiles\Multiplayer -- I've modified WONServerSetup.gf to read this:

I get a firewall message when trying to connect to Dynaverse. 
I'm not behind a proxy or anything like that.  As a matter of fact, it worked two weeks ago.  I've just installed a new legimate copy of Windows XP over my *ahem* other one.  Any more ideas?

[Bonk]

Do you have Norton or McAfee running? (especially firewall components..) Are you running ZoneAlarm?
How are you connected? Who is your ISP? What type of modem? Do you have a router?

[The_Joker]

Disabled Norton Antivirus.  ZoneAlarm off.  Windows Firewall disconnected.  Cable connection.  Worked fine a couple of weeks ago before new installation of XP Professional.

[Kroma BaSyl]

Make sure that your Network Connection isn't bridged.

[The_Joker]

Make sure that your Network Connection isn't bridged.

Where's that located?  Not sure how to check that.

[Kroma BaSyl]

Go into "Network Connections" from "Control Panel" , then right click on your "LAN or High-Speed Internet" adapter that is currently enabled. If there is an option in the drop dowbn that says "Bridge Connection" then you are not Bridged and all is well. If it says something like "Diable Bridge" or "un-bridge" then select it.

[The_Joker]

OK then, not bridged.

[The_Joker]

Just tested, I can connect through GSA, but not connect to Dynaverse.

This is the message I receive:

A firewall has been detected or you are not online.  You are unable to connect.

[Strat]

Do you know what programs you have running in the backround?  A list of them would be helpfull.

You can try the following:

1) Press Ctrl-Alt-Delete
2) Goto the 'Processes' Tab
3) You should see a list of programs that are running in the computer.

If possible, type a list of those programs running for us to see what else may be happening.

If your firewall was not previsously On, Turn it On then back Off.  Mabey that'll reset somethin.

Also, you didn't answer (or I didn't see it) the question..
Do you have a router?
What is your ISP?

-Strat

[Julin Eurthyr]

Now that you're getting out to Gamespy (tells me the router's set up correctly), try using the setup file described in the sticky post at top of the forum again...

I don't know if the "blackfleet" stuff works, but I know the actual IP posted above is 100% functional, as that's what I got going on my system...

[Strat]

If you ping the 'blackfleet stuff' it should resolve to the same IP.

[The_Joker]

I'm not using a router.  Direct cable connection.  I'll try the activate the firewall then deactivate it thing. **edit:  I attempted to turn the firewall on and got this message.  "An error occurred while Internet connection sharing was being enabled.  The dependency services or group failed to start."  This doesn't make sense to me because I don't use Internet connection sharing.

List of processes:

You may not use ICS but it would appear to be running. Remove it if you can, because it will be the problem since it acts as a router and forwards or blocks ports like a hardware router.

The windows firewall does use a similar virtual adapter setup as ICS, thus the error that seems unrelated. Now why doesn't it start? (not that you really want it to...) Are you using an ethernet card, an on-board ethernet adapter or USB connection to your cable modem?

Also, Norton is still running. (navapsvc.exe, ccEvtMgr.exe) Don't just end the processes, but rather exit the application as intended (control panel or services).

Also you probably want to exit MSN messenger while changing network settings (msmsgs.exe). Sign off and exit.

Though not related, OSA.exe and FINDFAST.exe can go, findfast should be disabled (control panel?) and removed from the office installation (unless you really like it and use it alot - otherwise just deadwood) OSA is just the flag icon shortcut for Office Startup in the Startup menu (I just move it elsewhere - more deadwood). You could also stand to disable some of the Creative Labs stuff if you don't really use it.

Does anyone happen to see anything else?

BTW, I found the problem with why I xcouldn't start the firewall.  It was a service I already had disabled causing the problem.

[The_Joker]

Just for poo poos and giggles, I tried a fresh install...still no joy.    ???

[Bonk]

BTW, I found the problem with why I xcouldn't start the firewall.  It was a service I already had disabled causing the problem.

What service did you disable?

[The_Joker]

Can't remeber, now.  I re-enabled it, turned on the firewall, turned it back off, tried OP....didn't work.  Disabled it again.  Think it may have been Indexing.

[Strat]

Are there any other services you played with?

[The_Joker]

Yeah.  Using Black Viper's web page.  At any rate, I'm going to go back to windows default and start experimenting from there.  I don't think I disabled anyting that would cause a problem, but at this point, I'm willing to try to find out.

[The_Joker]

Well, I'm about to give up.

Last ditch effort.

I'm wondering how you have disabled the ICS service if it wasn't set up in the first place. If ICS was set up and then disabled through the admin tools and not removed normally you may still have problems.

When you log on to GSA, can you create your own room and host OP games?

What is this "Black Viper's web page"?? What are his qualifications to control your windows installation?

I'd say at this point that you should reinstall windows and XP SP2, install OP (before anything else), get it working, then install or disable stuff one item at a time (if you must) and test OP after disabling each item. (though I would only disable the messenger service).

Cleaven has a good point about ICS there too.

[Strat]

Black Viper is a guy that decided to go through the Windows XP Services and decide what services were nessesary to run. 

I saw this, and decided that for the gain, the services were better left alone.  Several he had no idea what they did!  Things may be very screwed up now.  With all the stuff messsing up, I'm sure Windows is now confused somehow

Joker I kinda suggest another install of XP.     This time leave XP as it is.  ONLY service I change is the Messenger service.  Disable that, REST leave alone.  Performance gain is minor, at least with the hardware I have, and my hardware is 2 years old.

1) Install Windows Updates (SP2)
2) Intsall Norton AV
3) Install OP
4) Update OP
4) Edit the file for Dyna IP
5) Make Sure Windows Firewall is OFF first time you run OP. If OP works, you have option to configure it later.
6) Open OP --See if you can hit Dyna.

ZoneAlarm I'd say leave out, as a troubleshooting measure for now.  When we get OP working, you can experiment with it.  I know for a fact though, some people do not like ZonAlarm at all.

Install nothing else, change no settings other than those mentioned.

Lets take this 1 step at a time.

-Strat

[Strat]

   I just realized Bonk said to do pretty much the same thing! Ha!

Well there you got it from 2 people Joker.

'Cept for this:  Blck Viper's settings are riskey, and provide LITTLE performance gain.  Some services he admits to not understanding the purpose of!

Personally, I say leave all accept Messenger service. 
-Strat

[The_Joker]

Why re-install?  You don't think I'm dumb enough not to know what I personally turned off, do you?  I'll just re-enable.  I personally disabled the stuff.  I got the web page from TechTV.  I couldn't connect to Dyna before I started messing around with the Windows install.  Also, the only thing not working is OP.  America's Army, Diablo2, BF Vietnam, BF1942, Ghost Recon, Call of Duty, Tiger Woods 2003, Norton, Zone Alarm, and the entire Microsoft Office suite work just fine. 

Perhaps I'll reinstall from scratch later, but, frankly its not an option until at least Monday.  I'm also not sure if it is worth it to get one game working.

[The_Joker]

Well, I'm gonna try a fresh windows install.  Just ticks me off cause I did a fresh windows install 2 weeks ago.

[Strat]

Well, I can certainly say I understand your frustration...

Been through it many times.... 

[Cleaven]

Unfortunately none, not a single one, nada, not any of the programs you listed connect for muliplayer in the same way as OP. The best comparison you can make is if you can do what I said to try in GSA. I'm not going to bet the sheep station, but I will put a six-pack down and say that you've screwed up ICS.

[The_Joker]

Well, I've got a fresh install now.  With SP2.  I'll try it out in a bit.

[The_Joker]

Well, I did the following:

1) Install Windows Updates (SP2)
2) skipped Norton AV
3) Install OP
4) Update OP
4) Edit the file for Dyna IP
5) Make Sure Windows Firewall is OFF first time you run OP. If OP works, you have option to configure it later.
6) Open OP --See if you can hit Dyna.

Tried both ways of editing the WONServerSetup.gf file.

Nothing.


But, yes, I can host and create rooms in GSA.  Only Dyna isn't working correctly.

[Cleaven]

So you reformatted and started from scratch?

[The_Joker]

yep


Only thing currently on my HD is Windows XP SP2 (after a clean format) and Orion Pirates 2.5.5.2 with OPPlus 3.3 and EZini.

[Strat]

Well, I did the following:

1) Install Windows Updates (SP2)
2) skipped Norton AV
3) Install OP
4) Update OP

But, yes, I can host and create rooms in GSA.  Only Dyna isn't working correctly.

OK, do this:

1)Type out the error in the Dyna right now for us here.
2) Edit the ip file to have the WRONG ip.
3) Go in OP and see what error you get now. They should be Different.  Type it here


One error type means no comunication from Directory Server other error means no internet communication. Let narrow this down now.

[Cleaven]

I have no more idea's except for simple errors like having the 2525 patch instead of the 2552.

[The_Joker]

First I used this File:

[Strat]

Wellllll, that rediculous.  Only explination I have is that origional servers are running or something, or are forwarding to new ones.

Since it works, leave it! lol

Now pop in AV, Firewall and do whatever you want.  But you know now that your OP is working

But .... it can't work with the old Taldren address.
