Hello Emucoach'ians. Today I'd like to release a guide on how to, "Make your server public".
This will be really straight forward and simple.
Requirements:
Step 1
1. Head to your router's configuration page, Enter: 192.168.1.1 in your address bar of your favorite browser.
once you've logged into your router find something along the lines of, "Port Forwarding/Port Triggering", Not all routers are the same so it might be something else. That you'll have to find, I can't. You'll either need to turn your Firewall off or put exceptions which I will not explain, if you're hosting a server you shouldn't be watching porn on it. So just turn that firewall off..... unless your afraid of computer aids.
These are the following ports you need to forward.
80 - 80 TCP UDP
3036 - 3036 TCP UDP
3306 - 3306 TCP UDP
6112 - 6112 TCP UDP
6881 - 6999 TCP UDP
8129 - 8129 TCP UDP
8085 - 8085 TCP UDP
8093 - 8093 TCP UDP
7878 - 7878 TCP UDP
3724 - 3724 TCP UDP
3443 - 3443 TCP UDP
8050 - 8050 TCP UDP
If given the option to make the ports protocol both TCP/UDP DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Step 2
2. Second you'll need to open up your host file. Located: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
Drag your host file to the desktop. Once there right click and open with your favorite text editor.
Go to the last line that has nothing written on it. Press Enter 2 times. You will type "127.0.0.1", press tab twice and type your No-IP hostname. Example, "turkeygobbler.servegame.com" (Don't put turkeygobbler.servegame.com LOL)
Now google, "What's my IP", The number that pops up is your external IP, copy it. Go back into your host file and press enter after the hostname.
You'll be on a new line. Press Paste, then press Tab twice, then put your hostname again.
Now save it and put it back into "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc"
Here's a screenshot of how it should look like

Step 3
3. Now launch the No-IP DUC program, login using the account you made, click, "Edit Hosts", check the host you made. Close it and forget about it.
You're officially online now.
To make your server accessible by other's you need to open HeidiSQL. Once you've logged in, (Default login is root/ascent). You'll head to your, "Auth", database, in the, "Realmlist", table you'll want to find the column, "address", copy and paste your External IP address in there. Now exit.
Step 4
4. Now google something like, "Is this website down", type in your hostname and see if it's up, (It should be, if you followed directions)
*Notes: If your router, (Like my netgear) Offer No-IP services through your router, you can enter your info for No-IP in your router and it will stay synced with No-IP.com so you don't have to worry about your DUC being up.... ever....
This will be really straight forward and simple.
Requirements:
- A No-IP Account - Get it here http://www.noip.com/
- No-IP DUC - Get it here http://www.noip.com/download?page=win
- Notepad++ (Optional) You can use Notepad but it sucks
- HeidiSQL - Get it here http://www.heidisql.com/download.php
- Xampp (Optional if you want to use your apache provided in your repack)
