2Xflserver.exe

I have a small problem since i have a Win2k3 and runing a flserver and its running fine since I run it under a user with terminal server but my problem is more when I try to use a 2nd version of flserver.exe with a different user on terminal server. If I have 2 folders with each a copy of the freelancer installed game but the user A is only allowed to go and see the folder for flserver.exe in the A folder and the same thing for user B is only allowed to see the flserver.exe in the B folder and of course the same is true for the My documents folder since its 2 different users. So far so good but then all of a sudden the firs Flserver is in connflict with the second one because of IP addresses is the same so I changed the port with /P2022 on user B and same problem again 2 things i did seems to have fix the problem of conflicts---- 1st applied the patch then ---- 2nd I erased the cfg file for user b and restarted the server in B again its working so far for the past hour.

The reason why i wanted this setup is to start a bit of modding myself. I modified a bit the asguard mod to include my new faction and a base for us on my server but i wanted to test a new version on the second server. hence the problem. I f you have heard of something similar let me know

Bye!!!

@jaymark - Unless you can assign a different ip to one of those servers they will continue to have conflicts. Plus you need to have installed Freelancer seperately under each user and not just copied it over to the other. A unique code is created partly based on the current user account that is active.

Hi people,

Just an update on what i did with the 2 servers. I used a second machine and installe dthe second server on that machine. I also installed a reg version on the second user of the server then applied the mod version 2 on the server in the other machine and copied he files over to the second user and voila. As long as there is 2 diferent ports to forward it does work with the same IP. I think my mistake was to use the accounts from the first server which is a "nono"!!!!

So far they have both been up for more then a few days with succes so now I gotta do some scripting on version 2.

Take care

JM
