xoddiex Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I want to create a server but i dont know how can anyone help me
Kalbintion Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Here's a post i had on >another thread related to setting up a server: Not incredibly hard, you should just be able to download the server files, run it, and have your family connect to the server using the computers internal network IP (typically a 192.168.* number) If you need to find your internal IP address for the machine the server will be on, you can follow these steps to get the info: For Windows: * Press Windows Key and R * Enter in "cmd" * click ok or press enter * type in "ipconfig /all" * Look for a line with "IPv4 Address" (in some cases you may only have an IPv6 Address, and you would need this value instead) For Mac: * Run terminal * type in "ifconfig -a" * Look for a line with "IPv4 Address" (in some cases you may only have an IPv6 Address, and you would need this value instead) Edit: If for some reason the line of IPv4 Address does not exist on Mac output, it may be under a different header. I am unfamiliar with Mac to a massive extent and am not 100% sure if it prepends the info with the same as windows (last i knew i believed it did but it has been a few years since i did anything with a Mac) The instructions for finding the IP will be slightly different unless you intend on having it to be a local server only. Otherwise you will need to find your external IP.
