Read the section on the Wiki called "Getting your server on the public list" at http://bzflag.org/wiki/CreatingAServer . Everything you should need is there...

It's much better to use groups, preferably global. Request them, add players, create a groupsdb file and call it in your server config.
Search the forums, wiki, etc for more help.

I'll explain a bit...
You start your server with a batchfile or with a long command.
I do it thislike:
-dd is the Debuglevel (Higher = mor information)
Now to the configfile:
The User DB will be managed by the Server, an empty textfile is enough.
The Group DB contains the rights for personal groups.
You can create them.
Here is mine:
If your server is running, you have to make yourself admin.
Do:
The server creates this group automatically.
To give yourself membership of the group, do:
If you're still having questions, ask
You start your server with a batchfile or with a long command.
I do it thislike:
If you want to have log files, use this:C:\bzflag\bzfs.exe -conf "C:\bzflagstuff\configs\config.conf"
-ts is for TimestampC:\bzflag\bzfs.exe -ts -dd -conf "C:\bzflagstuff\configs\config.conf" > C:\bzflagstuff\log\Log.txt
-dd is the Debuglevel (Higher = mor information)
Now to the configfile:
In this example, i use a User and Group DB.#Public description for the server
-public "JPTs BZFlag Server"
#Public network address for the server
-publicaddr jpt.homeip.net:5154
#Bad Words filter file specification
-badwords C:\bzflagstuff\data\language.lan
#File to which to write user reports
-reportfile "C:\bzflagstuff\data\Reports.txt"
#Administrator's password
-password "serverpass"
#File that stores group privileges
-groupdb "C:\bzflagstuff\data\GroPriv.txt"
#File that stores user privileges
-userdb "C:\bzflagstuff\data\UserPriv.txt"
#Capture the flag game style
-c
#World file to load
-world "C:\bzflagstuff\worlds\world.bzw"
#Tanks can spawn on buildings
-sb
#Maximum number of players n, or max players per team n,n,n,n,n,n
-mp 0,6,3,3,0,10
#Tanks can jump
-j
#Maximum concurrent shots
-ms 5
The User DB will be managed by the Server, an empty textfile is enough.
The Group DB contains the rights for personal groups.
You can create them.
Here is mine:
Verified is the group, which contains registered users.JPT.ADMIN: ACTIONMESSAGE ADMINMESSAGERECEIVE ADMINMESSAGESEND BAN BANLIST FLAGHISTORY FLAGMOD MUTE PLAYERLIST POLL REJOIN SAY SPAWN SETALL UNMUTE VETO VOTE ANTIKICK ANTIBAN ANTIPOLL HOSTBAN HOSTBANLIST KILL LAGWARN SET KICK

VERIFIED: SPAWN REJOIN SAY VOTE POLL
EVERYONE: SPAWN REJOIN SAY ADMINMESSAGESEND
If your server is running, you have to make yourself admin.
Do:
Then, you've to add yourself to the Local.Admin group./password serverpass
The server creates this group automatically.
To give yourself membership of the group, do:
Then, you can rejoin the server, and you'll have the @.[/quote]/setgroup YourNick Local.Admin
If you're still having questions, ask

Ok, questions:
1. Why no one can join to my map, but i know that they see it, becouse i have 2 computers and i can use second PC... I can see it, but i can't go in ("Server not found")
2. When i try to "/setgroup YourNick Local.Admin", it say: "STEVEN GERRARD is not listed"
3. When i run server, in black window it say some things AND "File transfer terminated with error from libcurl 6 :"
Now its enought...
(I maked everything what you said...)

Update to the latest version?
Steven,
What version of bzfs(the server) are you using? I read (in these forums somewhere) that the latest version fixes some libcurl bugs/errors. You might try to upgrade to the latest version, or at least re-install bzfs.

I did it...The Knights Who Say Ni wrote:yer i wouldnt do that as it leaves you very attackable (hackable) just open one port [5154 is the default] and forward it make sure youre -public is right with the right IP as it may change if its dynamic
just check every thing in youre conf and setup...
after that there isnt much you can do..

I've helped more than a few get their first servers up, and I'm pretty sure you have disabled your firewall, but NOT opened your ports.
Find the exact brand and model number of your router, go to portforward.com and find the default guide for your router, then open port 5154 for both TCP and UDP. You should be able to re-enable your firewall after that.
Another big hint is to keep the .conf as simple as possible, until AFTER you have the server public. You don't need groups, variable settings, you don't even need a map, (it will create a random map for you).
Don't even think about groups, until after you have a public server. #comment all of that out#
Thats right, get rid of all the extras, until it's public. That makes it alot easier to spot any errors, when there's alot less you're attempting to load.
Once the server is public, and on the list, start adding all your options ONE AT A TIME. So when one of the options breaks the .conf, you know which one it is.
All you really need is -public and -publicaddr. That's it.

Yeah, it seems like every single time they have a whole lot of ideas that go into the server, all set up, and that is a good thing.
But right now all you have to worry about, steven, is getting the server on the list. You can add all of that later.
1. Make your .conf file as simple as possible.
2. Get on the list !!!
3. Work on groups, map, all of that.
