Dedicated server - No ping? PiBoSo can you help?

[Robin Mayer]

Hello,

I set up a dedicated server and this is my code: kart.exe -dedicated 11600 -set params wintercup.ini

Everything works fine but there is no Ping on the server? Must I deacticate the windows firewall?

... Must I deacticate the windows firewall?

No, but you have to create a rule to allow the communication for "kart.exe".
For a quick test disable the firewall and and check the ping of your server. If you get ping, enable the firewall again and follow one of these tutorials:

If you didn't get ping when the firewall was disabled then you should look at your antivirus. Often security suites disable the windows-firewall and use their own firewall instead.

Looking at your picture from yesterday, the port forwarding in your router seems to be ok.
