server setup with router
 

I have a dlink 704 router and i have a dedicated server setup so had to make that machine a dmz host to get it to work but now all my other machines on that network cant join that server if any one has any idea plz help thanx

If your server is truly in a DMZ then it will have an external IP address, probably the same one given to you by your ISP. Use that address at the "IP Address" box in the "Join Internet Game " screen. Your lan machines should be able to find it that way.

Couple of questions:
Could your other clients behind the router see it B4?
How many nics are in this server?

How are you trying to connect? via the private IP address or your public IP address. If your boxes are going out to gamespy (Internet ) then coming back into your router, your router may not let them out in the first place. Try connecting to the server via it's private IP address.

start MOH
in console type
connect 192.168.1.x or what ever the ip address is of the server.


Good luck

Just to add to Rudedog's comments and add some personal info.
I have four computers on my LAN. One is the ded server, and we play on the other three. This problem was extremely frustrating for me for some time.
What I did was to open TCP and UDP ports on 12203 and 12300 pointing to the internal IP address for the ded server. So that basically anything pinging those ports gets redirected. You might want to see if this is possible in your router software/firmware.
When it comes time to connect, my outside clients either pick up the connection in GS or ASE, or connect to the external IP directly. For the other inhouse computers, I just use the ingame mp browser to look for LAN games and connect. (does that use more resources than just console?).
It's my experience with MOH, Roger Wilco, and Teamspeak, that a computer inside your router firewall cannot loop data out of the firewall and then back in, i.e. find you own server on GS.
Try enabling those ports, DMZ never actually worked for me, who knows why.
Hopefully this isn't too redundant.
Good luck
