Trouble connecting to server

[kylerjt]

Hi guys, I have been trying for days to get my linux garrysmod dedicated server running. I got close to day when I started the server, and my server showed up in the Gmod list, but when I choose the server, it says I can't connect, and it retried 4 times.

My OS: Ubuntu Desktop 64-bit
My Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2 Ghz
My RAM: 2.5 Gigs
To start server: ./srcds_run -console -game garrysmod +maxplayers 2 +map gm_flatgrass -autoupdate

I know it's weird to have only 2 players, but it's a private server for my friend and I. In another post, I'll attach my server.cfg file.

Thanks so much!

Here's my server.cfg file. Hope it helps!

Network information please!

I can vary from 1.5 Megabits per second to 3 megabits per second. However strangely my Upload speed is a bit faster.

Not only the speed. We also need information about your network and port forwarding stuff, etc.

I have an Apple Time Capsule with all the ports that need to be forwarded, forwarded. My ISP is Cox Communications. P.S. my ping (in the game list) hovers around 6. P.P.S I Redid my Server.cfg file, and now it doesn't even show up in the list!

You may want to change your RCon password for security, since you just posted it here.

I will, but since it doesn't work, I haven't had my server activated for a while.

Does the server even start?

[kylerjt]

Yes it starts, but it doesn't let me connect. I think the problem is not correctly port forwarding. I'll get back to you guys if I get it working.

[lol554]

Post a image of the port forwarding please.

[kylerjt]

I mean, I correctly forward my ports, but I go to http://cpfx.ca/srcds/portcheck.php and it says the ports failed.

Can't you take a screenshot of the whole port forwarding and post it here? :-)
