2 servers as in split maps or dragon/phoenix?
don't think it's hard... you just have to forward more ports and use different ones on them.

Give me some time to think about it, im not sure of a solution atm as port forwarding is out of the question since you can only forward to one computer. Ill rack my brains and see if i can come up witha solution for you.

can you tell me exactly how the current setup is working? I undertsand all of the above, but are u using a DMZ? port forwarding or what?

I must say i have my doubts that this is possible

Port fowarding, DMZ is a total waste of router security. I know it's possible, it's all in the txt files i believe. I have been examining the network documents but I can't seem to get it to work.


EDIT:

Hmm i wonder if u could set up 2 servers, and make the second one fowarded to different ports like 7002 etc and for the server address put in the ipaddress for the login server but with the :7002 etc...

yeah the problem is when u connect to GN even though the servers etc are on different machines they all use the same global accounts database. Thats where the problem is.

I think the solution lies with finding a way to link the 2 computers together, and have them function as one server...players who create accounts for the first server will have the same details for torozor, and vice versa, and both servers should be able to function independantly of each other.

however this is only an idea, and i have no idea how it can be pulled off :(

EDIT: after looking at your edit that sounds like its should be possible. I see no reason why that shouldnt work as long as u configure all the files etc correctly. Just make sure u dont end up using ports that may be important or something.

GN do it by having each server component running on its own system, look through the Mir2Manage.ppt file for some ideas.

Yes urban you are right. By simple port forwarding you should be able to run two servers, as long as you dont mind having the same accounts/character system for both servers. The trick would be in making sure that the nessacery components are given DIFFERENT ports on the 2nd server (m2 server I guess would be the only component to address, perhap the selchr gate too), then thats all there should be to it.

you also have the option to share the same logins on both servers... forward 5 ports... if you are not sharing, then 6 ports...

Server 1
login: 7000
selchar: 7100
game: 7200
the login server will have 2 entries: selchar 1 and 2.

Server 2
selchar: 7101
game: 7201
you only have to touch your gate INIs for these gates...
the rest you don't have to touch anything...

Ye I'm still playing with it to get it right, although i have a feeling i might need to share some components from the first server.
