Host Two Servers, Using Two Different Computers, Using Same Connection.

[SlapYou]

Could anyone advice me of how to make it possible for me to run two servers, as i'm wanting to make two servers, but i can't seem to have the Ports both directed to the same Internal IP.

Would very much like to know how this is done.

Thanks in advance.


P.S I used the Search Function, Couldn't find any additional information about the question i have asked.

I would think it's possible using a Router to port forward different ports to two different computers, i know it's possible on my Router.

You wouldn't be able to use the same ports for both servers though, set the second server to a different port, 8000 or something, and then forward port 8000 on your Router to the second PC. Obviously forwarding Port 7000 to the first PC.

Config the servers individually for each port.

I know its possible, just dont understand how its done, as ive always used 7000 7100 7200, what other ports can the server connect through? Of would it be a case of using port 8000 8100 8200 and changing in the server files?

It would require you using different ports as mentioned, so you need to change each config file to point to a different port on the second server.

It's up to you to work out what ports to use. Will be guides on google to find such info, or just try frndom ports like 8000 etc

This was for some older files/different purpose but should point you in the right direction.

Yeah ive tryed, But for some reason, it doesnt open 8000,8100,8200 Ports, Ive tryed random numbers, but my router just doesnt seem to open them :/

It does work I have 3 or 4 servers running from a single IP in the past.

Might be the files your using? I know some of the older clients hard code 7000 (ignoring the ini file).

depending of your router you can forward for example:

server 1 lan port 7000
server 2 lan port 7000

External, forward 7000 to lanip of server 1 and port 7000
and
External, forward 8000 to lanip of server 2 and port 7000.

For your understanding, if you use different machine or virtual machines for host a server you can use the same port, the only thing you need is a proper router and forward config on this.

I hope this serves you
