Hi folks.

Well we currently have one server that is rocking...almost too much...so I am going to set up a second server for our clan. The server I have our current cod4 dm server running on is a vm that is basically dedicated to that server...it doesnt have a firewall or anything like that.

I have another server which runs our forum, databases and all that stuff which does run a firewall so the database doesnt get hacked. On that server I also ran our COD2 server, CSS server and FEAR server. Our COD2 server never really saw much traffic in its life and I cant say exactly why weather it just wasnt popular or weather there was some issue that prevented people from seeing it on the master list on a regular basis. Once I found a huge long list of ports that a COD2 server requires open such as the gamespy ports, master server query port etc etc etc...I opened all those up and there seemed to be a little difference...but I digress

The point Is I want to set up a second COD4 server on the same server that we have COD2 on. Since our COD2 server is not popular or hardly even used I am going to change the port of that one to something else so COD4 can use the stock port for the game. However I want to know what other ports need to be open for COD4 in order for it to operate as if there were no firewall...all query ports open etc. I have not really seen a list of ports it needs anywhere and wonder if someone has some knowledge of this and can help me out so our second server can be as popuar as the first and not have some stupid firewall setting killing it :)

Thanks much.
