<div>I think you should change the order of your command line</div>
<div>You had <em>+exec server.cfg</em> first, which will make it execute the server.cfg first then ignore any other information equal as in the server.cfg.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>try this order:</div>
<div>./cod4_lnxded<strong> +set dedicated 2</strong> <strong>+set net_ip <a href="http://209.242.12.190">209.242.12.190</a> +set net_port 38961</strong> +set fs_basepath /home/msanborn/COD4 +set fs_homepath /home/msanborn/COD4 +set fs_savepath /home/msanborn/COD4 +exec server2.cfg +map_rotate<br>
</div>
<div>{the <strong>dedicated</strong> part should be the first if I am correct }</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>also on the linux box, try to see if you server is listening:</div>
<div><strong> netstat -anp</strong> {-a = any, n = nummeric, p = display programnames}</div>
<div>you should see cod4_lnxed in the list (probably 2 times, a query port too)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>When you connect from your client to the server, check the logs if you see any error msg</div>
<div> </div>
<div>if you don't have a serverlog, you could change your commandline into </div>
<div>./cod4_lnxded +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip <a href="http://209.242.12.190">209.242.12.190</a> +set net_port 38961 +set fs_basepath /home/msanborn/COD4 +set fs_homepath /home/msanborn/COD4 +set fs_savepath /home/msanborn/COD4 +exec server2.cfg +map_rotate <strong>2>cod4-server.log &</strong></div>
<div> </div>
<div> 2>cod4-server.log => means route all std err message to cod4-server.log {this also prevents the annoying message scrolling on your screen.</div>
<div> 1> somefile.txt => means route all std out messages to somefile.txt</div>
<div> & => means run this process in the background.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>After you have attempted to connect with your cod4 client to your cod server, type <strong>cat cod4-server.log</strong> in your linux console to display the log file.</div>
<div>Check if you see your ip address, or maybe even your user id.</div>
<div>If you do not see any thing comming in, then you should check you routing, firewall, maybe portforwarding . . that kind of stuff..</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Hope this helps you a bit further,</div>
