Hello,

I'm trying to get the connection between my serveur client and the master but unfortunately I' cannot get an handshake between the two.
My game server is a linux on 85.31.205.196
it is a debian 4.0 with proftpd, Apache2 and Webmin
domain is srv38.hosteur.com

The error log is the following when I'm starting the gamcreate.x86

-error Log here under ---------------------------------------------------------

............ and then it circle ..............

I have verified the followings:
- remote login with shell like documented in the domain configuration page of gamecreate
- chown and chmod capabilities for the document login user
- shell for the specified domain account
- Attributes 777 for gamcreate.x86
- I can ping the masters from the game server

** The port 1124 is theoretically open but how to verify ?

Any idea were to look at ?

It seems the failure comes from the tcp connect but I have no clue what it could be......FYI, I'm not a specialist and it's my first Debian.

Thanks in advance for your feedbacks and inputs

It looks like a reboot solved the connectivity problem!!

If somebody can confirm that a reboot after altering the IPTABLES is necessary than it was the root cause of the problem!!
I have open the port 1124 for any tcp in-out

Thks guys anyway
