Installing Dedicated Server

rkiefl

Hi guys, I've never setup an NS dedicated server before. Could I please get step-by-step instructions on how to set it up.

Here is my configuration.

I have Steam installed and working. I can play NS online.
I am behind a linksys router, so I'll have to forward some ports. From what I've seen in the past, will this be port 27015?

I am running on Windows Server.

Thanks for all your help! Much appreciated <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

There is a single guide that's all the help you should need as far as the routing on your lil router goes here:

Once you get that setup and you need help getting steam and NS specific stuffs I'd suggest vadakil's great dox here:

vadakill's stuff is for an older version of ns but still is very accurate.
