Dedicated server windows 10

[Littlecooldude]

Hi guys,
 
Trying to setup a dedicated server but on my Windows 10 PC.  Its a spare Xeon and I had a free copy of WIn10 from work.  I'm thinking that Windows 10 might be the problem.  I've DMZ'd the IP of the PC in my router firewall it didn't work.  I've also disabled windows firewall and that didn't fix anything.
 
2 things are strange - 1 I can't port forward to this PC (not anything anyone can do, its an internal issue) b/c of this i can't seem to get it working.
 
but when I set it to be a LAN
 
Here are my settings.ini file:

 

[sTEAM]
DISABLECLOUD = true


[MISC]
CONSOLE_ENABLED = true
autocompiler_enabled = true

[account]
dedicated_lan_server = true

[network]
default_server_name = Adventureland
game_mode = endless
server_port = 32401
server_password =
enable_autosaver = true
tick_rate = 15
connection_timeout = 8000
enable_vote_kick = false
pause_when_empty = true

It hangs.  Here is the log.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm guessing no one has used windows 10 for something like this and that makes sense

Hi @Littlecooldude,

 

i think that's no different for make server on windows 7 and 8 and 10

 

but i have never test server DST on windows because im on linux

 

so if i understand you used DMZ for make your server?

[jacklul]

Just wanna point out some errors:

[00:00:05]: [Warning] Invalid port selection: 32401[00:00:05]: Offline servers must use a port in the range of [10998, 11018][00:00:05]: Setting server port to : 10999

[00:00:00]: [WARNING] [account] dedicated_lan_server has been deprecated and replaced with [network] offline_server

You can't access the server even from inside the LAN? - it's getting blocked on the machine you're hosting it on.

[Littlecooldude]

Yeah its messed up.  I turned off windows firewall, and put the PC in DMZ and still the port is blocked.  I'll change the port back to 10999 as the range for LAN games is different.  I was just using that 32401 as a test.  I wonder if the IPv6 grabbing an IP on my network is whats messing up the port forwarding.  I'll turn that off as well.

 

Right at the end of the log is where it hangs and doesn't initialize the game.

 

Thanks for the reply guys.

[Littlecooldude]

OK so I changed the port to 10999 - Installed a port sniffer to see what the deal was.  Port sniffer says the port is open but when I run the exe with the conf_dir command in the log it says that it can't verify that the port is open in the firewall.

 

I am abandoning this, too much time spent for nothing  Setting up a VirtualBox running linux and see if that works.
