Question for Imag

I'm trying to get the redirect server working for mod maps, but am having problems.

I followed the instructions on this tutorial: http://www.nbnclan.org.uk/content.php?content.9

On this part:

[IpDrv.TcpNetDriver]
AllowDownloads=True
MaxDownloadSize=0
DownloadManagers=IpDrv.HTTPDownload
DownloadManagers=Engine.ChannelDownload

I put allowdownloads FALSE so that they can only get it from the redirect server, but when my friends try to connect to my server it sends it from there!

Im just using my web space as a test for the redirect, is this a valid location for the map files: http://bellsouthpwp.net/a/m/amor8140/ut/

Thanks man

Yes. The url works. Be sure that you don't forget the trailing slash. That's the most common error when admins set a redirect url in the ini

I have it in the .ini exactly as it is in that post... hmm

What about the proxy server port is it ok to leave that as the default 3128?

even so, with allowdownloads=False shoudnt that prevent them from downloading from the server either way?

tangent:

whats this about
[Engine.DemoRecDriver]
AllowDownloads=False
DemoSpectatorClass=UnrealGame.DemoRecSpectator
MaxClientRate=25000

Yes. it should.

That other stuff is the actor that is used to record demos. It is using a local rate of 25000.

Man... ok i got it to where if you login admin and i hit allowdownloads it sfalse

also pulled up the redirecttourl and that shows as http://bellsouthpwp.net/a/m/amor8140/ut/

but when people try to join the get connection failure server refused to send! does this have to do with the compression? i pulled up usecompression and it is tru

or do i need the www.?

Ok, this is begging the Q.. what ini are you editing? Is it in use when you are editing it? How is your server starting up (what commandline, with a specified ini file, the -mod switch, etc)?
