Error using rcon

(1/1)

Geko010:
I just got my server up and running (jmedia.homelinux.net).  It's running on a linux box, while I'm playing on a windows XP box connected to the same router.

Whenever I use the rcon command (after setting the password of course) I get the error:

Unable to connect to remote server (76.22.48.168:27015)

When I was running it on the same xp box that I connect with, I had no troubles.  However I copied the server.cfg from the XP to the linux box, so I figure they should be identical to connect to.

I tried setting rcon_address to jmedia.homelinux.net, as well as my IP.  Neither seemed to help.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

steven_m64:
sounds like your router may not support loopback connections (via the external ip)

try using the internal ip to connect to it via rcon.

major:
If your playing on your own LAN server, then connect to it via LAN server list, not with the main server list window.
