punkbuster http port problems

[theoldman]

I am in the process of starting a cod uo server with punkbuster. when I click on the icon to start my server, it stops and says pb_sv_httpPort = 8080
listening for http:
and then does nothing :cry:

my question is what do i need to set these values to in my punkbuster config file? and do I need to open a specific port in my router??


pb_sv_httpPort 0
pb_sv_httpAddr "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
pb_sv_httpRefresh 30
pb_sv_httpKey ""
pb_sv_httpMaps ""

pb_sv_httpPort 0
pb_sv_httpAddr "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
pb_sv_httpRefresh 30
pb_sv_httpKey ""
pb_sv_httpMaps ""

Set pb_sv_httpPort to whichever port you want, maybe not 80 though (for security).
Set pb_sv_httpAddr to your servers external IP (or dns name)
Set pb_sv_httpKey to your rconpassword

Open your firewall to allow incoming traffic on the port you selected for pb_sv_httpPort.

pb_sv_httpMaps is only necessary if you want to switch maps thru the PB web interface.
