Anyone wanting to announce a permanent Cube server should place such announcements in this thread. Of course, the main servers at this point are grunt.splatterworld.de and dark.asamnet.de

#461: ports

by Blindman on 02/16/2008 23:53

HIya,
I luv the game but am having trouble running a ded server through the firewall even though the udp ports are dnat\\\'d(forwarded) to the server box.
I think once that is solved I could run a decent server with plenty of bandwidth.

I believe ICMP is an integral part of getting a server recognized by the master, and that you'll need those ports open on both TCP and UDP, though I can't recall exactly which combination of types and numbers is required.

A sauer server uses two UDP ports: 78785 and 78786. The master server sends a server info request to your game server on port 78786, and your server is registered upon your reply. ICMP echo is not used.

graham meant to say ports 28785, 28786, and 28786 respectively.

ICMP is not an issue!
Even though the server responds with "did not respond to ping" ... it doesn't mean the ICMP packets ... it's talking about a info-request to the servers UPD port 28786. The clients use UDP 28785 as port for the game-protocol.

Personally, I think it shouldn't say "ping" if it doesn't mean "ping", but eh.

I wonder which game I'm thinking of that *does* need ICMP?

Well, seeing as *ping* was a program that happen to use ICMP, not a protocol or packet type - I would say that the terminology is up for grabs :P

RTCW/ET used ICMP echo request packets for it's ping. This is the same method that the original ping program used, yes.

I suppose that it is in fact true, though it doesn't feel right to be referring to it as ping. Eh. :)

If it makes you feel any better, the source code refers to the request as a *ping* and response as a *pong*.

BTW, I have used this exact same terminology for almost ten years in my own networking code - I suppose it's kinda self evident to us computer nerds... since I see it all the time. :D

Ouch. Discounted my computer nerdity.

I don't really feel bad about it; I had just mixed the necessary ports and such with another game.

Cube is not very popular nowadays, as most players have moved to Sauerbraten.
