I have the server and start listening, all the defaults.
I tested without firwall (iptables is clean)
any client can connect to this, why?

Binding UDP socket to IP (v6) :: Port 8452

disable ipv6 should help... spring-dedicated seems to use ipv6:

i'm unsure if already an other solution exists...

i'm unsure if already an other solution exists...

Not really, unfortunately.

HostIP=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx; // (optional) which IP to host on. omit or use an empty value to host on any local IP.

// == IP Support ==
// IP properties accept:
// - IP v4 addresses like 127.0.0.1 or 123.123.123.123
// - IP v6 addresses like :: or fe80::1
// - NO host-names

The type of socket is chosen according to "HostIP" startscript setting, but most servers have both LAN and WAN interfaces, and must open sockets on both interfaces so that both Internet and LAN players can connect. So the "HostIP" setting must be omitted, and in this case, it seems Spring chooses to use IPv6 if available.

the server supports IPv6, which will become the norm. Thank you for your answer

Thank you for your response, may or must I bring this change (file, syntax), the server is a linux server debian squeez
Thank you in advance

[bibim]

snipe: the "HostIP" setting is defined in the startscript, which is a file generated by the autohost each time a new game starts.

I was just explaining that there is no easy way to force spring-dedicated to use IPv4, because if we provide the "HostIP" setting in the startscript then spring-dedicated won't listen on all interfaces.

[hoijui]

if i am not mistaken, using "0.0.0.0" (INADDR_ANY) should have the desired effect. The equivalent for IPv6 is "::".
These are called the any-address, and allow incoming connections through all available external IPs (of the same IP protocol version).
Please report back if you tested and this does not work.

If it is true, i will include this info in the documentation you pointed too.

I may I want to try your solution.
May I do it how?
In the file spads.conf ?

bibim:
I understood that the problem seems to come from the communication between these two interfaces.


fr:
mai je je veux bien essayer ta solution.
mai je procède comment ?
Dans le fichier spads.conf

bibim
j'ai bien compris que le souci semble venir de là communication entre ces deux interfaces

[hoijui]

:D
yeah of course, just try... nothing will explode if it does not work.

so

no effect ?
tanks for advances

[hoijui]

you should be testing 0.0.0.0

[snipe]

you should be testing 0.0.0.0

no ,one other idea?

[hoijui]

you want to say, you tested with that, and were not able to connect through any of the interfaces of the machine?

[snipe]

so the result is negative. May I only eth0 and lo?
call of duty word at this ware technically had the player connected.
Nexuiz is not a problem.


we do not see what's going on when it connects sure the interface (server) there is a parameter that could be put in the spads.conf to better see what it does?
(ex: server -verbose) ?


fr
oui le resulta est negatif. mai j'ai seulment eth0 et lo ?
call of duty word at ware peuve les joueur ce connecter.
nexiuz ne pose pas de probleme.

on ne vois pas ce qu'il ce passe quand il ce connecte sure les interface (serveur) il y a un paramètre que l'on pourrait mettre dans le spads.conf pour mieux voir ce qu'il fait ?

[hoijui]

hehe :D
your french seems to be as buggy as your english :D

the connecting parts is purely within spring, not SPADS, and there is no -verbose switch there. even if, it could not log connection attempts at interfaces/IPs it has not a socket opened for at.

so... i guess someone (me) should do tests with spring opened at address 0.0.0.0 then, somewhen. you may follow this:

yes my French is as bad: s
ok, I'll follow the link and the evolution of the bug

oui mon français est aussi mauvais :s
ok , je vais suivre le lien et l'├®volution du bug

[hoijui]

where are you from, whats your native language?

[snipe]

where are you from, whats your native language?

Switzerland, Swiss rommand language is, simply put it is French
Thank you for the help

fr
Suisse ,la langue est le suisse rommand, pour faire simple c'est le français

Merci pour l'aide :)

[hoijui]

ahh k :D
then i guess you just use slang talk, or are you maybe not natively suisse?

[bibim]

Using a patched version of SPADS to add line "HostIP=0.0.0.0" in the startscript fixed snipe's problem. I guess I will have to add a setting in SPADS to make "HostIP" configurable...
