No need to registar to read it.  Full details on what to add to the mod's scriptting to get the results you want.

  Guys none of that matters. The mod looks at the +net_ip setting and gets the IP that way.

  When your behind a NAT router you can't bind to the Public IP unless he puts the machine running the servers in a DMZ zone in the router. Problem with that is all routers are flaky as all get out when it comes to DMZ zones.

  He will probably have to use Jokers suggestion and hard code it in the mod if possible.

  Other option is to turn the machine into your router per say so that it is before your current router. This would allow you to bind to your public IP but cause you more maintenance issues because you'll have to harded the machine and keep it up to date and learn more about networking.
